The Walking Dead, the most successful TV drama for FOX
International Channels, has taken a break from TV screens over the Christmas
Season and the US Super Bowl culmination. Viewers need not despair as their
favourite blood-filled series will be back with more exhilarating action in
February 2013.
In the highly
successful new season, Rick and his fellow survivors continue to seek refuge in
a desolate and post-apocalyptic world and soon discover that there are greater
forces to fear than just the walking dead. The struggle to survive has never
been so perilous. Season 3 also introduced new characters, including the
Governor (David Morrissey) and fan-favourite Michonne (Danai Gurira), along
with her zombie pets.
Based on the comic
book series written by Robert Kirkman and published by Image Comics, The Walking Dead stars Lincoln, Sarah
Wayne Callies, Laurie Holden, Steven Yeun, Norman Reedus, Chandler Riggs,
Lauren Cohan, Scott Wilson, Iron E. Singleton, Melissa McBride, Morrissey and
Gurira.
The series is
executive produced by showrunner Glen Mazzara, Kirkman, Gale Anne Hurd (recently
inducted into the Hollywood Walk of Fame) and David Alpert with Greg Nicotero,
Denise Huth and Evan Reilly as co-executive producers.
The Walking Dead series has garnered an Emmy® Award for
Outstanding Prosthetic Make-up, a Golden Globe® Award nomination for Best
Television Series – Drama, and a WGA Award for Outstanding Achievement in
Writing Derivative New Media, among other accolades.
