The cameras have officially stopped rolling on the next chapter of the apocalypse. Stars Jimmi Simpson and Aimee Garcia took to social media to confirm that filming has wrapped on the third season of AMC’s “The Walking Dead: Dead City”. The duo joined the cast for this upcoming installment and wasted no time signaling that their work in the zombie-infested Big Apple is complete.
Simpson, known for his roles in “Westworld” and “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia”, shared a photo with “Lucille II” and praised his co-stars. He gave a massive shoutout to leads Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Lauren Cohan for welcoming him into the family, calling fellow newcomers Garcia and Raúl Castillo his “partners in grime.” Simpson is set to play a character named Dillard, though specific details remain under wraps.
Aimee Garcia (“Lucifer”) celebrated a dual milestone, marking both her birthday and her final day on set. She thanked the cast for a “Renata” themed cake and called the experience magic. Garcia portrays Renata, a charming leader known for her optimism, while Castillo steps into the series regular role of Luis.
Season 3 promises a distinct shift in tone for the spinoff. Following the war for control in Season 2, Maggie and Negan will attempt to put aside their differences to build the first thriving community in Manhattan. However, old wounds and the chaos of the city threaten to dismantle their fragile peace. With production now complete, fans are one step closer to seeing if the former enemies can truly coexist.
