THE WALKING DEAD: DEAD CITY Scores Season 3 Renewal, Releases Synopsis and New Showrunner Info
Maggie needs to somehow win her son back over, but that's going to be hard. He's deeply brainwashed by Dama and upset with his mom for not killing Negan. I assume the Bricks is just left to its own devices at this point. Meanwhile, Negan is back to having pretty much nothing and no one after losing all of his men and power in that final battle.

What Happens to Maggie and Negan in THE WALKING DEAD: DEAD CITY Season 2 Finale?
He's reeling over the death of Ginny and for some reason isn't wanting to be with his wife and son in another locale. I will never understand that man. And Armstrong is no longer fully on board with New Babylon's actions, which spells eventual trouble for him. There's a lot to wrap up in The Walking Dead: Dead City season three, whenever it arrives.
For now, we already have a brief synopsis for season three:
In season three, Maggie and Negan finally put aside their differences to build the first thriving community in Manhattan since the apocalypse, but when chaos in the city begins to arise, they are forced to question: have they learned from their old wounds or will their dark past spell doom for the entire city?
Y'all. This synopsis is wild. I would have never thought these two would build a community as co-leaders, especially in a wild place like Manhattan. Who will the residents be? Will some of the Bricks people live there? How are they going to do this with New Babylon all over the place? Who knows.
We do know that Seth Hoffman will be Dead City's new showrunner, replacing Eli Jorné. It's not totally clear why Jorné is leaving the series but Hoffman was responsible for some great episodes of the flagship series like 'Too Far Gone.' So I'm confident that he will take Maggie and Negan's story to a new level.
'We're thankful to Eli Jorné for two seasons of Dead City that took the story of these iconic characters in exciting new directions and broadened this thriving Universe by introducing a new corner of the walker apocalypse,' said Dan McDermott, president of entertainment and AMC Studios for AMC Networks. 'As we continue to create new stories for a passionate TWD fanbase, we're delighted to have a seasoned Walking Dead veteran like Seth Hoffman at the helm of a new season, alongside the remarkable Lauren Cohan and Jeffrey Dean Morgan, that will bring new adversaries and alliances and push the boundaries of Maggie and Negan's conflicted relationship.'
And it seems we won't have to wait too long for another season. Production is set to begin in Boston this fall. Before we know it, we will be back in the New York groove.

AMC to kill off The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon after 4th season
The Walking Dead franchise has been reanimated half a dozen times at this point, but another spin-off is finally getting the chance to rest in peace. In a panel at San Diego Comic-Con today, AMC Networks officially announced that it would be putting a bullet in The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon's brain after a fourth and final season. The eight-episode finale will begin production this month in Spain. As always, the new season will star Norman Reedus and Melissa McBride as Daryl and Carol, respectively. The actors have been playing these characters for almost two decades at this point, but somehow, they both promise there's more story to tell. 'Daryl Dixon has been an incredible journey. I thank each and every fan who has joined us on this ride. It's been a privilege to build this story for these characters, and we have so much gratitude for how it's been embraced,' Reedus shared in a statement. 'This finale isn't just an ending; it's a celebration of what we've all shared together. Keep carrying that love forward – Daryl's journey is far from over.' Added McBride: 'It has been the thrill of a lifetime to shoot this part of Daryl and Carol's adventure together in Europe and I keep coming back for more of these two characters. There is still so much story left to tell and so much for the fans to look forward to.' Some of that story will occur in Daryl Dixon season three, which is set to premiere on AMC and AMC+ September 7. 'Season three of The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon tracks Carol and Daryl as they continue their journey towards home and the ones they love,' a synopsis of the upcoming installment reads. 'As they struggle to find their way back, the 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.' You can follow along on Daryl and Carol's journey—which includes meeting 'the last Englishman in England,' firebombing some Walkers, and endeavoring to kill the King of Spain—in a new trailer below: More from A.V.
