In The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live, will Rick and Michonne have the happy ending they deserve after all the heartache they’ve been through?
Walking Dead fans will have to tune in to AMC tomorrow, to find out as the network looks to wrap up one of the last dangling plot threads from the original show in what will be the sixth spinoff from the original show after the likes of Fear the Walking Dead (concluded), The Walking Dead: World Beyond (concluded), Tales of the Walking Dead (concluded), The Walking Dead: Dead City (ongoing) and The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon (ongoing).
Ahead of tomorrow’s premiere, you can check out the show’s opening scene below.
Premiering on October 31, 2010, The Walking Dead concluded on November 20, 2022, after 11 episodes and 177 episodes. The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live is set after the main series’ end and looks to reunite Michonne with Rick Grimes, who was presumed dead after season 9. Michonne left the show in season 10 to go search for Rick.
Her search will apparently bear fruit as Rick has obviously survived the season 9 finale bridge explosion and has been conscripted into service for a recently-formed human society called the Civic Republic.
Scott M. Gimple, who oversees the entire Walking Dead universe for AMC, returns to serve as showrunner for the sequel, which will premiere on February 25 on AMC and AMC+ at 9 p.m. EST/PST.
What do you think will happen when Rick and Michonne finally reunite? What do you think are the true goals behind the Civic Republic’s actions?
In addition to Andrew Lincoln and Danai Gurira, the show also stars Pollyanna McIntosh, Lesley-Ann Brandt, Terry O’Quinn, Matthew August, Andrew “King Bach” Bachelor, Breeda Wool and Craig Tate.

The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live Official Synopsis:
The series presents an epic love story of two characters changed by a changed world. Kept apart by distance. By an unstoppable power. By the ghosts of who they were. Rick and Michonne are thrown into another world, built on a war against the dead… And ultimately, a war against the living. Can they find each other and who they were in a place and situation unlike any they’ve ever known before? Are they enemies? Lovers? Without each other, are they even alive — or will they find that they, too, are the Walking Dead?
