The Walking Dead Season 4 – The Dead Are Coming!
Today at Comic-Con in San Diego AMC showed up to talk to fans about The Walking Dead‘s upcoming 4th season.
Actors, Andrew Lincoln, Norman Reedus, Steven Yeun, Lauren Cohan, Danai Gurira, David Morrissey, Scott Wilson, and Chad Coleman were in Hall H along with creator/Executive Producer Robert Kirkman, new showrunner/Executive Producer Scott Gimple, Executive Producers Gale Anne Hurd and Dave Alpert, and Special Effects Makeup Supervisor/Executive Producer Greg Nicotero. And there to moderate it all was Talking Dead host Chris Hardwick (Nerdist).
During the panel it was announced that the 4th season will start on October 13th at 9pm EST. I’ve already memorized the date. I trust that you will too.
But the biggest part of the entire panel was a 4 minute and 27 second video that previews the new season and will have you asking, Is It October Yet?
Check it out!
WTF?!
So, immediately I have some questions (please remember that I haven’t read the comics) because of the video.
➵ Who is the young black man that seems to play such a big part here?
➵ Who let the walkers into D Block?
➵ Is it the Governor?
➵ Did any central characters die in that 12 that Hershel mentions?
➵ Is Rick still broken?
➵ Is Daryl the new leader?
➵ What’s up with Tyreese?
➵ Where the eff are they going to go if they leave the damn prison?
Here’s a quote from the official release from AMC today. (click here to read the full release)…
In the highly anticipated new season, we find Rick and the group fostering a thriving community in the safe haven of the prison. Sadly, in this brutal world, happiness is short-lived and walkers and outside threats are no match for danger brewing inside the fences. The group’s home and new way of life will be thoroughly tested, and their struggle to survive has never been so perilous.
It certainly sounds like it’s going to be an exciting season of TV. In total we’ll get 16 episodes, 8 in the first half and then 8 in the 2nd half, starting sometime in February. I’m going to guess the 9th, 1 week after the Super Bowl and 1 week before Valentine’s Day.
Here’s hoping that season 4 of the post-apocalyptic zombie slugfest keeps us all on the edge of our seats. Fans know that they should never get comfortable because that’s when you get surprised with a huge event that breaks your heart.
It’s just under 3 months away, so rest up, watch the first 3 seasons over again, talk to your friends about what you all think might be coming up and make sure that you have popcorn in the cupboard when the big day arrives.
Be awesome kids!
