According to the network, this new show will “feature two young female protagonists and focus on the first generation to come-of-age in the apocalypse as we know it. Some will become heroes. Some will become villains. In the end, all of them will be changed forever. Grown-up and cemented in their identities, both good and bad.”
The series is reportedly being created by chief content officer Scott M. Gimple and writer/producer for TWD, Matt Negrete. Negrete will act as showrunner, and production of 10 episodes is set to begin this summer in Virginia for a 2020 release. No word has been released yet of the possibility of characters crossing over to this new series.
