With exactly one month until the premiere of the most highly anticipated Walking Dead spinoff yet, AMC has released another trailer for the return of Rick and Michonne in The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live, which debuts Feb 25. And the network also has some fancy new key art to go with it.
“I lost someone years ago,” says Danai Gurira’s Michonne in the new trailer (which can be seen below). “Now I’m looking for him.”
From there, we get a collage of scenes showing Michonne on the hunt for her long lost love as well as shots of Andrew Lincoln’s Rick Grimes in the seemingly forced employ of the Civic Republic Military.
“Why do you even think I’m going to go along with all of this?” Rick asks the CRM leader Major General Beale (played by Terry O’Quinn) — to which Beale replies, “Because everything will change.”
What that change entails has yet to be revealed, but we do see both Rick and Beale culling walkers in the teaser. Whether they can actually work together seems more unlikely. Rick’s exclamation at the end that “This isn’t everything! You don’t get to choose for the world, you don’t get to choose for me,” would seem to indicate the two lack a shared common vision.
As for Pollyanna McIntosh’s Jadis — who can be seen in an intense car chase — she makes her CRM allegiance clear, proclaiming “We are the last light of the world. You have to know that.” (Methinks Rick does not, in fact, know that.)
Check out the trailer for yourself, and also take a gander at the fiery new key art for the series below. May the dynamic duo’s passion for each other ignite that flame!
