Synopsis

The Walking Dead: Dead City follows the popular Maggie (Lauren Cohan) and Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) characters traveling into a post-apocalyptic Manhattan, long ago cut off from the mainland. In season two, in the growing war for control of New York City, Maggie and Negan find themselves trapped on opposite sides. As their paths intertwine, they come to see that the way out for both is more complicated and harrowing than they ever imagined.

Note from the artistic direction

Dive into the world of The Walking Dead, a franchise that has captivated audiences for 15 years now, with Dead City, a spin-off in which post-apocalyptic Manhattan becomes a ruthless survival ground. Played by Laura Cohan and Jeffrey Dean Morgan, the unlikely duo of Maggie and Negan faces a world in ruins, set against a backdrop as oppressive as it is fascinating.
