AMC Renews The Walking Dead for Season 6
AMC has renewed The Walking Dead for a sixth season just a few days before its fifth season premieres.
Scott M. Gimple will continue on as showrunner.
AMC President Charlie Collier in a statement said:
We could not be more excited for October 12 as we share new episodes of The Walking Dead with fans around the globe. In advance of Sunday’s Season 5 premiere, AMC proudly confirms a sixth season order of this extraordinary series. Thank you to Robert Kirkman, Scott Gimple, the terrific executive producers, and the entire team who brings this compelling world and these rich characters to life. There’s plenty more Dead ahead thanks to their impressive, collective effort.
Last month, AMC ordered a pilot to be shot for a spinoff of the series.
