By “The Walking Dead” franchise overseer Scott M. Gimple, who also co-created the upcoming spin-off “The Ones Who Live,” says he hopes the core cast from the main show will be able to reunite.
The original “The Walking Dead” series came to a close a while back with the franchise continuing on with three new spin-off series.
The first was “Dead City” focusing on Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) and Maggie (Lauren Cohan), the second was “Daryl Dixon” about Daryl (Norman Reedus) and soon Carol (Melissa McBride).
Now comes “The Ones Who Live” about Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) and Michonne (Danai Gurira). Speaking at the show’s premiere at Linwood Dunn Theater in Los Angeles this week, Gimple tells Variety he has hopes for a three-show crossover:
“There are so many things with this universe that I plan and put together, but I also know that God laughs, and you have to pivot to something else. I absolutely have been working towards that [a crossover] and hoping towards that, but we’ll see what happens. It might be a version of it that no one expects.”
Lesley-Ann Brandt, Terry O’Quinn and Craig Tate also str in the series which continues Rick and Michonne’s story, set after the events and finale of the original series – finally showing us what happened to Rick Grimes years after that helicopter took him away during the ninth season back in 2018 and a good decade or so after they were separate in the show’s timeline.
“The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live” debuts on AMC and AMC+ on February 25th.
