Although the OG show is bowing out in October, the franchise seems to be ever expanding, with Tales of the Walking Dead serving up six one-hour long stories featuring a new cast of characters trapped in their own post-apocalyptic nightmare.
Brooklyn Nine-Nine’s Terry Crews will star as a doomsday prepper holed up with a hippy called Evie (Olivia Munn), indie movie queen Parker Posey and Jillian Bell will play argumentative co-workers at an Atlanta insurance firm caught up in the outbreak, while award-winning ER actor Anthony Edwards stars opposite Poppy Liu (Better Call Saul, Hacks) as an anthropologist studying the living dead.
And thrillingly for The Walking Dead fans, Samantha Morton will reprise her role as Dee/Alpha, in what looks like an origin episode exploring how she became the terrifying member of the Whisperers we’ve encountered before.
Get ready for six new, star-studded takes on the world of the walkers and as much bloody carnage as ever, as we explain below how to watch Tales of the Walking Dead online.
