‘Tales of the Walking Dead’ to Premiere This August on AMC

Written by John Edward Betancourt

It is definitely safe to say, that there was a sense of melancholy that accompanied last night’s season seven finale of Fear the Walking Dead. For the end of that episode signaled a potential void for fresh content from the world of The Walking Dead. Since the flagship series isn’t quite ready to air its final chapters just yet, and of course… Isle of the Dead and Norman Reedus’ yet to be named spin-off are still in the early days of pre-production. But as it turns out… we won’t be going without our favorite zombie franchise for long.
​
Because earlier today, AMC announced that Tales of the Walking Dead, an anthology series set in this harrowing zombiepocalypse will be arriving on our screens on August 14, 2022. Plus, they also sent some first-look images our way for this series as well. So, without further ado, here are those images and some details on today’s announcement, courtesy of AMC Networks.
​
‘The highly anticipated new episodic anthology series Tales of the Walking Dead, the latest series within the expanding The Walking Dead Universe, will premiere Sunday, August 14 at 9pm ET/8c on AMC and AMC+, with the first two episodes streaming that same night on AMC+. Subsequent episodes will stream one week early, beginning Sunday, August 21.
 
Tales of the Walking Dead consists of six original one-hour standalone episodes focused on both new and established characters within the walker apocalypse.  Each episode has its own distinct tone and point of view -- but the stakes are high in each story, pushing new, indelible characters with relentless, life-threatening choices and situations.  We get to see the apocalypse through different eyes, discovering more worlds, mythos, and mysteries of the Walking Dead.
 
Tales of the Walking Dead stars Olivia Munn (The Newsroom, X-Men: Apocalypse, Six), Samantha Morton (The Walking Dead, Harlots), Terry Crews (Brooklyn Nine-Nine), Parker Posey (Lost In Space), Anthony Edwards (Inventing Anna, WeCrashed), Poppy Liu (Dead Ringers), Jillian Bell (Rough Night), Loan Chabanol (Fading Gigolo), Embeth Davidtz (Old, Ray Donovan,) Jessie T. Usher (Shaft, The Boys), Daniella Pineda (Cowboy Bebop), Danny Ramirez (Top Gun: Maverick), amongst others.’
