First Footage Premieres For “The Walking Dead” Spin-off

(PCM) During last night’s Season Five finale of AMC’s “The Walking Dead” was caught our first glimpse of footage from the new “The Walking Dead” spin-off series “Fear The Walking Dead”.

The spin-off series is set to debut sometime late this summer and will be set in Los Angeles. We learned from the incredibly brief promo for the series that the events in the “Fear The Walking Dead” will take place just prior to the undead apocalypse, as they mention an outbreak of flu-like symptoms. Eventually the new series will catch up with the original series, but it should be fairly interesting to learn a bit about how everything supposedly originated.

“Fear The Walking Dead” will star Cliff Curtis as school teacher Sean Cabrera who has a son with his ex-wife. Actress Kim Dickens will star as Nancy a guidance counselor who works at the school with Sean and is linked to him romantically. Frank Dillane stars as Nancy’s son Nick who is battling a drug problem and Alycia Debnam Carey will play Nancy’s daughter Ashley, who is the exact opposite of Nick, as she plans on leaving L.A. before the outbreak begins.

“Fear The Walking Dead” has already received a greenlight for Season Two which will air in 2016 and the first season will consist of six hour long episodes to give us a taste.
