Walking Dead: The World Beyond Season 2 will fill the gaps in the TWD universe

If you still have some catching up to do The Walking Dead: Beyond the World, some information from the 2021 San Diego Comic-Con panel with the cast and crew of the spin-off could be a good incentive. Now touted as a two-part limited series, the second season / half of which premieres on October 3rd, it stands alone as a YA adventure series in the world of the Walking Dead, but will connect this growing connected universe more definitely than ever.

Explanations come. Worlds are connected. “It’s more discovery”, TWD said Chief Content Officer Scott Gimple when asked about a characterization Beyond the world. “This season especially tells those intermediate stories about really big things that happen in the universe.” Chris Hardwick, who moderated everything TWD

Panels at SDCC Beyond the world to grout. You read that right. Put. It’s not the most flattering metaphor, but Gimple agreed that it was appropriate. “It really fills in some story gaps or story knowledge that the audience doesn’t have,” he said.

The first half or first season has already done this a bit. For those who didn’t know, the military of the Civic Republic briefed on the Walking Dead and then a little further Fear walking death, is an essential part of Beyond the world. All the information we can get about this mysterious group in Beyond the world informs about their participation and their motives in the other shows as well as about the general state of the zombie apocalypse and the post-apocalyptic society in the universe. An important part of unraveling this mystery is understanding the schedule, as the goals and governance of CRM may have changed over time.

The Comic-Con panels also clarified where the Walking Dead and their splits take place in relation to one another in terms of time. Fear walking death is still or again a prequel to the other series in the TWD expanded universe. There may have been a period of time between the time jumps in which fear took place around the same time as The Walking Dead, but that is no longer the case.

The next time is Beyond the world what takes place in the middle. (You know, like grout.) Gimple said it was after the new season of. takes place Fear walking death

who is currently experiencing a nuclear holocaust on top of everything else, but before the current season of the Walking Dead. It can happen even before the CRM hijacked Rick Grimes, but that’s still unclear. Beyond the world could just as easily happen in the six year hiatus that followed this tragic event. All we know is that the Walking Dead, which is entering its eleventh and final season, takes place furthest in the future.

Speaking of former fearless leaders, one thing Beyond the world will Not Feature or provide answers to Rick Grimes’ current location even though it was taken over by CRM. Maybe the timeline has something to do with it. But Gimple has clearly stated that those answers don’t come in this particular spin-off, and in a world where there are so many banter in the form of clichés like “never say never” and “anything is possible” it’s refreshing to To get a straight answer, even if it’s a negative one.
