news culture Dead City The Walking Dead: Negan and Maggie arrives on screens a month before the release of this new series
The Walking Dead TV universe will continue to grow with the upcoming release of Dead City, a spin-off series centered on Negan and Maggie. AMC just released a first trailer that, against all odds, makes you want to watch it.
Dead City, the new spin-off of The Walking Dead
AMC definitely doesn’t want to say goodbye to its golden egg hen, the Walking Dead. After the end of the main series with the airing of the eleventh and final season last year, The Walking will soon return twice in the form of spin-offs. The first was about Daryl and filmed in France, the second was in New York, with Negan and Maggie as headliners.
Justified dead city, this second spin-off series has just been revealed via a lengthy trailer shared by AMC. This relatively generous first trailer allows you to find the two characters and learn more about the main plot of the series, which is expected next month.
Negan and Maggie, the duo nobody expected
One of the biggest challenges in Dead City is bringing Negan and Maggie together. two starkly contrasting characters who were absolutely not meant to work together. As a reminder (Warning, spoilers ahead for those very, very late) Negan murdered Maggie’s husband Glenn in season seven. Although the two have since tried to eliminate the other several times, it is logically difficult for them to put an end to their past together.
However, the two characters must join forces here for the same goal, which is to find Maggie’s kidnapped son. This main plot will be a pretext to change the scenery and take the spectators to New York City after the apocalypse, where our two protagonists will have to defend themselves against zombies, but not only. As the trailer reveals, the duo will quickly encounter other survivors and must also track down Maggie’s son’s kidnapper, whom Negan has met in the past.
Even if The Walking Dead has had several seasons of varying quality, it must be admitted that the first images of Dead City can pique our curiosity. An unexpected duo of protagonists, high-quality action and a suspenseful plot, all centered on a hellish vision of New York… Dead City could well be a good surprise. June 18 response with the airing of the first episode.
