Project Summary
The Walking Dead: Dead City returns for its third season, with AMC's spinoff following Maggie Rhee and Negan Smith as they attempt to rebuild Manhattan in the walker-infested aftermath. Seth Hoffman takes over as showrunner, bringing his experience as a writer and co-executive producer from the original Walking Dead series. Production wrapped in Massachusetts in January 2026, with filming taking place primarily in Boston, Worcester, and Brockton standing in for post-apocalyptic New York.
