The “The Walking Dead” spin-off series focusing on Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) and Maggie (Lauren Cohan) has a new title. Billed as “Isle of the Dead”, the production will be released as “The Walking Dead: Dead City”.
Last month Morgan even posted a photo of the production’s first script cover, featuring the original title.
The title change does not affect the location, as the title island has always been a city: the island of Manhattan, the heart of New York, which the new series will show for the first time in the zombie apocalypse. In the premises put forward by the producers, the place was isolated from the mainland and, until recently, had remained a paradise protected from zombies.
With a screenplay by Eli Jorne, responsible for several chapters of “The Walking Dead”, the new production will show the unlikely duo formed by Negan and Magge arriving in Manhattan, where they find a parallel and chaotic world.
In addition to this project, the storyline of “The Walking Dead” will also continue in a spin-off of Daryl (Norman Reedus) set in Europe. This project was also supposed to include Carol (Melissa McBride), but the actress dropped out because the filming took place overseas.
Still with no premiere date, “Dead City” has already started recording on location in New Jersey and is expected to arrive on the pay channel AMC in 2023.
