‘The Walking Dead: Dead City' Boss Breaks Down That Maggie-Negan Game-Changing Choice in Season 2 Finale
[This story contains spoilers from season two finale.] Almost a decade ago, The Walking Dead took a baseball bat to its sprawling ensemble and changed the course of the show forever. Hard as it is to believe, Steven Yeun's Glenn was smashed out of the story all the way back in 2016. Nearly 10 years on, Lauren Cohan's Maggie has yet to satisfy vengeance against Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan), the man who giddily beat her husband to death. At long last, Maggie finally had Negan dead to rights in the season two finale of The Walking Dead: Dead City, the spinoff show starring these two blood-crossed rivals — and just as she got up at bat, she decided to walk away from the plate. More from The Hollywood Reporter Norman Reedus to Lead Canneseries Jury Jon Bernthal to Return in 'Punisher' Special for Marvel and Disney+ 'The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon' Season 3 First-Look Previews Norman Reedus and Melissa McBride's Long Journey Home Sunday night's Dead City finale, titled 'If History Were a Conflagration,' sees Negan deciding to go full heel in order to defeat Bruegel (Kim Coates), the franchise's newest psychopath, in a battle for supremacy over the post-apocalyptic New York City. Both men are vying for control over a game-changing supply of methane produced by walkers that could power the city back online. Maggie, meanwhile, is tasked by the Dama (Lisa Emery) with finding and assassinating Negan so she can finally move on from her decades-long grudge. With her son Hershel (Logan Kim) spurring her on, Maggie takes on the assignment, and even makes it as far as stabbing Negan in the back — only to suffer a crisis of conscience, realizing killing the man won't bring Glenn back, and finally accepting that the only way to move forward is to truly let go and find peace with Negan. If anyone thought Maggie would actually go through with killing Negan then good, showrunner Eli Jorné and team did their job. But killing the character off was never truly on the table — according to executive producer Scott M. Gimple, who oversees the Walking Dead franchise in its many iterations. 'We wanted you on the edge of your seat,' he tells The Hollywood Reporter. But ultimately, he says, this Walking Dead spinoff series is 'as much about Negan as it is about Maggie.' According to Gimple, the story choice boils down to wanting to find a new iteration of Negan and Maggie who can finally set aside their past and move forward toward a future where New York actually stands a chance of returning to civilization. 'For these two characters, if keeping Negan alive is holding on, is killing him actually letting go? I like how this goes right up to the edge of that choice, almost like it's A Christmas Carol, where she's all-but killed him, and has found that it's not fulfilling the journey she's been on for herself — the journey of who she was and who she's becoming. 'This has been a very long story,' he adds. 'It's been years and years that we've seen Maggie and Negan in this cycle. Maggie has been completely and totally justified in her hate and anger and trauma, but for the audience, we've been watching her live with that for so long. It's been eight years [of real time], and I want to see Maggie surmount this thing and evolve from it.' While a third season of Dead City has not yet been announced, Gimple ensures that any future stories told about Negan and Maggie won't be overly friendly now that the two have buried the hatchet. 'They're not going to be skipping and holding hands,' he says, 'but hate is corrosive to the person hating, and I think that's what this season portrayed. It's not necessarily sunshine and rainbows, but I do think this is a happy ending.' Maggie ends the season finding resolution with Negan. But her son? Not as much. Hershel is deeply disappointed in his mother's choice, and decides to stick with the Dama, the deadly woman who continues to corrupt the late Glenn's teenage son. Here, Maggie makes another choice, deciding to let Hershel follow his own path for the time being. 'It's funny to think about it this way, but this situation boils down to being a very difficult parenting decision,' says Gimple. 'It's kind of like letting your kid go off and follow a jam band. 'I don't approve of this, but it's your choice.' It's an enormous amount of faith Maggie's putting in Hershel at the end here. If she had killed Negan, maybe she'd get to have a relationship with her son right now. But if she had killed Negan, would she still be herself? And if not, what does that relationship with her son look like? It's complicated stuff.' How will Maggie and Negan, and even Maggie and Hershel, navigate the new turns in their relationships? Again, Gimple won't confirm a third season of Dead City just yet, but he does think about what the future holds for these characters. 'Where do they go from here? What do these choices mean, and what kinds of stories help us harness that relationship, that challenge, that showcase their new dynamics?' he asks. 'The last two seasons featured a dynamic that's now concluded [with Maggie and Negan settling their score]. Now, it's time to show you something different.' *** Walking Dead: Dead City season two is now available via AMC and AMC Plus.

AMC announces 'The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon' season 3 release date and trailer
¡Bienvenidos a España! Yes, "The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon" will officially see the titular zombie survivor (played by Norman Reedus) heading to Spain in the third season of the popular "TWD" spin-off, which is set to premiere Sept. 7. Fans got a sneak peek at all of the post-apocalyptic Spanish adventures to come in a brand-new teaser trailer. AMC released a 30-second teaser clip showing Reedus's Daryl Dixon and Melissa McBride's Carol Peletier adjusting to life in their new setting. "Felt like something had been lost, a chance to really have something" Dixon says in the short trailer. McBride's Carol adds in voiceover, "First you survive what happened to you, and then you start living again." But clearly, the characters haven't shaken off those survival instincts just yet, as fiery, zombie-filled battles are very much in their futures. "The road home is brutal and the fight to survive is far from over," reads the description of the new sneak peek, which you can watch below: AMC's official logline for season 3 of "The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon" reads: "Daryl and Carol continue their journey to return home and to the ones they love, but their path takes them farther astray, leading them through distant lands with ever-changing and unfamiliar conditions as they witness the various effects of the Walker apocalypse." And along with a peek into this season's Spain-set plotlines, the teaser also confirmed that the third installment, which is subtitled "The Book of Carol," will begin on Sunday, September 7 at 9 p.m. ET exclusively on AMC and AMC Plus, kicking off a six-episode run. Along with leads Reedus and McBride, Eduardo Noriega, Óscar Jaenada and Alexandra Masangkay are joining the cast as series regulars in season 3. Actors including Candela Saitta, Hugo Arbués, Greta Fernández, Gonzalo Bouza, Hada Nieto and Stephen Merchant will round out the ensemble. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. In addition to the season 3 teaser trailer, AMC also dropped some behind-the-scenes insights with a new on-set video, catching up not only with Jeffrey Dean Morgan to discuss "The Walking Dead: Dead City" season 2 but also Norman Reedus and Melissa McBride from Spain during filming of "Daryl Dixon" season 3: As for how their two characters end up in Spain, the "Daryl Dixon" team is tight-lipped, but showrunner David Zabel did previously tell The Hollywood Reporter that the nomadic nature of Daryl and Carol's survival helped "reinvigorate" the show season after season. 'We loved the reinvigoration we experienced going to France, and we wanted to continue doing that,' Zabel said. 'On a story level, the characters should not settle down. It should be a road show. They have to keep moving [to return home]. At the end of season two, they're going somewhere. We don't know exactly where, and it's not a direct line to the next place they go. But the idea is to keep the characters struggling and striving to get home and moving.' Tom's Guide will keep you updated on all things related to "The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon" season 3, including character details, plot points, new trailers and more.
