“In season two, in the growing war for control of Manhattan, Maggie and Negan find themselves trapped on opposite sides,” reads the logline. “As their paths intertwine, they come to see that the way out for both is more complicated and harrowing than they ever imagined.”
Whilst the second season of Dead City is still a few months away, fans can look forward to several new additions in the cast, with Dascha Polanco, Jake Weary, Keir Gilchrist and Pooya Mohseni all appearing in some capacity.
Such was the popularity of the spin-off, a follow-up instalment was officially greenlit ahead of the finale for the first season, with AMC’s Dan McDermott saying: “This next chapter in the Walking Dead Universe continues to thrive with a terrific inaugural season for Dead City.

“We can't wait to bring Dead City fans back to the epicentre of Manhattan for more zip-lining action with Maggie and Negan,” he added, with the renewal coinciding with the announcement of fellow spin-off show Daryl Dixon.
Though Dead City is due to return in the early part of next year, it's currently unknown if this includes UK audiences, with the first season premiering on these shores over a year after its original release in the US.
The Walking Dead aired on AMC in the US and STAR on Disney+ in the UK.
