nodorothyparker October 12, 2022 Share October 12, 2022 Why Maggie and Negan Go to New York in TWD: Dead City Quote In the first look at The Walking Dead: Dead City, Maggie and Negan are literally back at each other's throats. So what could possibly bring Maggie and Negan together? The answer might be a danger to their children, as Cohan hinted during The Walking Dead panel at New York Comic Con: Dead City is about "the most unlikely two people that you would want to see together," Cohan teased. "And it makes it very good to see us together, because it is the hardest situation that [Maggie and Negan] both have to be in. The need is bigger than the fear." Link to comment
maystone October 16, 2022 Share October 16, 2022 I'll give it a try, if for no other reason than to find out how they strung zip lines around Manhattan in the ZA. I'm the farthest thing from an engineer, though, so maybe it's easier than I'm thinking it is. I'm really hoping that at some point they're going to run into a Walker with an eye patch on his left eye, wearing rotted out camo pants and a black tactical vest. And someone can mutter: "Yeah, I heard you was dead." 2 Link to comment

Apart from this just being a fancy gimmick, I don’t understand how people this far into the apocalypse could be even slightly bothered by Walkers. Unless however Manhattan has been infested with the ‘Super Walker’ Dun Dun Duh 😱😱😱, in which case it’s no wonder they’re swinging between buildings like Tarzan, I can’t wait to see Maggie wrapping her thighs around that plank of wood, hair blowing in the breeze as she glides effortlessly from one skyscraper to the next 😂. 3 hours ago, ctlady said: Wonder if she makes it out alive from the finale and into the spin off I wouldn’t be putting money on it 🙄 I think “eating the baby” is pretty much how it’s going to go, off screen obviously. It’s just such an easy out / sad ending that gets Negan even more love that the writers just couldn’t resist. When Maggie finds out it will give them even more reason to make her feel sorry for him, I do hope I’m wrong. Edited October 18, 2022 by OoohMaggie Link to comment

In an excerpt from that link (top of this page), it comes out and says that maybe it's about saving their children. To my mind that means that both kids make it out of the finale alive. Kidnapped? Infected by the Commonwealth somehow? Beats me, but the premise sounds like some kind of rescue mission. Link to comment

tv echo November 21, 2022 Share November 21, 2022 (edited) Lauren Cohan says it 'felt really good to be able to talk about Glenn' in The Walking Dead finale Dalton Ross November 21, 2022https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/lauren-cohan-says-felt-really-160000054.html Quote Your last line in the series is to Carol and Daryl there at the end where you say, "I want to talk about the future. There's a lot out here to find out about. And I think it's time we did." Does that tie in to how you end up in New York at all? [LAUREN COHAN:] When we pick up in New York, it's a few years later. So in my mind, there is sort this hopeful renewal at the end of the season of going out and exploring in the ways that we've seen her go do before. But I think this time with her family it's about staying in communication about their joint plan to do this and forge new roads. And family means Daryl and Carol and everybody else. And so that is what that means to me. The Walking Dead : Dead City Official Trailer Spot AMC+ AMC+ Nov. 21, 2022 Edited November 21, 2022 by tv echo Link to comment

He is very much a creature of habit, and he knows how to survive." I sure hope they don't mean his Savior ways. I never viewed Negan's arc at the end of TWD to be a redemption story. He knows what he did and CDB hasn't forgiven him. I think there was a lot of character growth and he sure learned how to go along to get along and generally do better. Pre-Savior Negan was a grade-A dick, maybe those are the old ways being referred to. Do not take this as me being a Negan fan. I'm just a fan of Negan not being a savage rapist and murderer week after week on my TV and if he's going to be running around New York with Maggie I'd prefer to keep it that way. Are they filming in NY or Vancouver? If it's BC I'm looking forward to playing spot the 'Ol Ye Village from Stargate. 1 1 Link to comment

The cast and executive producers discuss the new series, debuting on AMC and AMC+ this June. Maggie (Lauren Cohan) and Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) travel into a postapocalyptic Manhattan long ago cut off from the mainland. The crumbling city is filled with the dead and denizens who have made New York City their own world full of anarchy, danger, beauty, and terror. The series also stars Gaius Charles, Zeljko Ivanek, Karina Ortiz, Jonathan Higginbotham, and Mahina Napoleon, with Scott Gimple, Showrunner Eli Jorné, Cohan, Morgan, and Brian Bockrath as executive producers.

Dead City will pick up a few years after we last saw Negan and Maggie. Spoiler Maggie tracks him down needing help to find her son, who was kidnapped. They find themselves having to go to Manhattan. When speaking on the dynamic between Maggie and Negan, Jeffrey had this to say: “They’re not getting married, you know what I mean? I’ll give that away. It’s tenuous at best. They’re needing each other for a very specific reason. So, Negan has gone back probably a few steps in that redemption arc out of necessity and his survival instincts. It’s going to be a rough road, but going down 5th Avenue is not that bad a road to go down.” * * * Lauren Cohan describes it as “not typical teammates and not a typical adventure.” She explains it’s not quite an adventure and there will be much conflict along the way. * * *Dead City is also set to premiere on June 18 at 10 PM ET on AMC and AMC Plus. The Rick and Michonne series Summit, is going to premiere in 2024. Edited April 20, 2023 by tv echo Link to comment

What brings and keeps Negan and Maggie together? And are other characters we know at least name-checked? –D.K. Spoiler As we previously reported, the frenemies — if even at this point we can call them that — are reteamed in an effort to retrieve Maggie and ill-fated husband Glenn’s son Hershel (now recast with the older Logan Kim) from a villain called the Croat (Damages vet Željko Ivanek). Why is Negan so essential to this operation? The Saviors’ former leader has, ahem, history with the baddie. As for other characters being name-checked, fear not — the past looms large over the characters’ present… and may even dictate their future. Edited June 9, 2023 by tv echo 1 Link to comment
nodorothyparker June 14, 2023 Share June 14, 2023 The early reviews are surprisingly good. First one is minorly spoilerish, the second and third more so. 'The Walking Dead: Dead City' Review: Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Lauren Cohan Lead a Strong New Chapter for the Franchise Quote The Walking Dead: Dead City has molded the existing story into a tight narrative that is the best this franchise has been in quite some time. Dead City could have just been about broad survival, with the various conflicts that keep popping up in the apocalypse growing repetitive, but showrunner and writer Eli Jorne creates a more focused story. Picking up years after the end of when we last saw these characters, the plot is a straightforward one in which Maggie (Lauren Cohan) is trying to track down her son Hershel (Logan Kim), who has been taken from her by a menacing and cruel man known as the Croat (Željko Ivanek) for ransom. Alhough she manages to track him to the desolate city of Manhattan that is now cut off from the rest of the world, she realizes that she can’t go in alone and needs the knowledge of another to help her get her son back. That’s when she pays a visit to the last person she would ever normally want to see again: Jeffrey Dean Morgan‘s Negan. The man who killed Hershel’s father in the universe’s most brutal moment by far has insights into the Croat that may help her, which is a painful twist of fate the six-episode series must contend with.
