AMC is the rearmost network to advertise an florilegium series grounded on a megahit show — in this case, The Walking Dead. The forthcoming florilegium series will be called Tales of the Walking Dead, and it’ll tell new stories via single standalone occurrences featuring new characters in the zombie catastrophe. The series will be available on both AMC and AMC In discrepancy with the being Walking Dead Television shows, the forthcoming title will tell lower stories, one per occasion, to expand the compass of the macrocosm observers have spent times watching. Characters from the being shows will also make appearances in the florilegium alongside new cast, potentially offering a fresh take on the decreasingly banal megahit series.
According to Deadline, Channing Powell will serve as the florilegium’s showrunner with product set to start in early 2022. AMC has only ordered six occurrences for the florilegium series, which will be available to watch on AMC coming summer, as well as on the AMC streaming platform Each occasion will be one hour long. AMC’s Dan McDermott explained that by espousing an florilegium format, the platoon behind the show will have further “ inflexibility to entertain” suckers while also making it easier for beginners to jump into the zombie- filled macrocosm. Among other effects, the platoon teased “ stories unlike any we ’ve told before.”
The Walking Dead is n’t the first megahit Television show to get its own florilegium derivation. The most notable recent illustration is American Horror Story with the American Horror Stories florilegium series that debuted before this summer. Florilegium shows can also serve as a nice buffer between full seasons for the larger series upon which they’re grounded.
