The Walking Dead: Dead City Season 3 Might Be Delayed

by

Despite the continued success of the Walking Dead franchise on AMC, there are concerns that the spinoff, The Walking Dead: Dead City, may be facing difficulties, according to a recent report.

AMC’s latest earnings report has worried fans of The Walking Dead: Dead City. While the show and Daryl Dixon were both renewed, only Daryl Dixon is currently scheduled for release in 2026. This is concerning because filming for season three of Dead City finished in late 2025, and many viewers were anticipating its release this year, even though AMC didn’t officially announce a 2026 date.

Many fans are unhappy with this recent update, and it could also have a negative impact on AMC and the show itself. The second season of Dead City finished airing on June 22, 2025. If the next season doesn’t premiere until 2027 or later, the show might lose viewers. Generally, long breaks between seasons can cause audiences to lose interest, though this isn’t always true – especially for a popular franchise like this – but the possibility remains.

Although the latest financial report isn’t great news, there’s still a possibility that season 3 of Dead City could be released this year. AMC has clarified that the report doesn’t include all of their planned projects, suggesting they might be strategically deciding the best time to launch Dead City in 2026. For now, fans are left to guess what the delay means for the show.

The Walking Dead: Dead City centers on Maggie (Lauren Cohan) and Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan), who must reluctantly team up despite a deeply troubled past. Their animosity stems from Negan’s violent killing of Maggie’s husband, Glenn (Steven Yeun), in the original Walking Dead series. Both Lauren Cohan and Jeffrey Dean Morgan returned to play their iconic roles in this new story.

As of today, we don’t know when season 3 of The Walking Dead: Dead City will be released. You can currently watch seasons 1 and 2 on streaming services like Netflix, AMC+, Sling TV, and The Roku Channel.
