The Walking Dead’s Potential Return To Original Show’s Episode Count Addressed By Franchise Boss

While its future seems largely focused on smaller spinoffs, Scott M. Gimple teases that The Walking Deadmay return to the original show’s long-form episode count. Having launched with the direct adaptation of Robert Kirkman’s graphic novel of the same name, the post-apocalyptic universe has grown to include six spinoff shows, including the ongoing Dead Cityand Daryl Dixon. Beyond those, development is said to be underway on other spinoffs, including More Tales from the Walking Dead Universe, which was announced in April 2023, but hasn’t gotten an update since.
