What a journey the Walking Dead franchise has had. Like most popular properties today, this one started with a comic book by Robert Kirkman in 2003. Then in 2010 AMC debuted the television series that has completed ten seasons to date and two spin-off series. Who could forget meeting Andrew Lincoln’s Rick Grimes as he woke up in a post-apocalyptic world?

But unfortunately, all good things must come to an end. 2021 will feature the final eleventh season of The Walking Dead. As part of AMC’s 11 Weeks of Reveals until Season 11, they have released four images from the series. As well as the highly anticipated synopsis to give us a taste of what is to come starting on August 22nd, 2021. You can check out both down below!

AMC’s The Walking Dead Season 11 Synopsis

Previously on The Walking Dead, our survivors confronted past demons and combated new threats, with friendships and relationships suffering from the mounting collateral damage that is the apocalypse. Alexandria is severely compromised, left a former shell of the home it once was from the carnage and devastation left behind by the Whisperers.

Now all who live in Alexandria struggle to refortify it and feed its increasing number of residents, which include the survivors from the fall of the Kingdom and the burning of Hilltop; along with Maggie and her new group, the Wardens. Alexandria has more people than it can manage to feed and protect. Their situation is dire as tensions heat up over past events and self-preservation rises to the surface within the ravaged walls.

They must secure more food while they attempt to restore Alexandria before it collapses like countless other communities they have come across throughout the years. But where and how? More haggard and hungrier than ever before, they must dig deeper to find the effort and strength to safeguard the lives of their children, even if it means losing their own.

Meanwhile, unbeknownst to those at Alexandria, Eugene, Ezekiel, Yumiko, and Princess are still being held captive by mysterious soldiers who are members of a larger and unforthcoming group.

It’s hard to believe that the series is finally going to come to an end. While the main series is going to end this by no means that it’s the end of the franchise. There are two series Fear the Walking Dead and Walking Dead: World Beyond. As well as a film or two in development. Still, it will be sad to see The Walking Dead finally end. No doubt it will be an emotionally charged final season. Are you ready?

AMC’s The Walking Dead’s final season will kick off on August 22nd, 2021 on their network and AMC+.
