Some of the key creators of The Walking Dead appeared at this year’s Comic-Con for the first time in three years.
To celebrate the momentous occasion, a trailer was teased to attendees, showing what’s to come in the last lot of episodes of the zombie drama.
The teaser also revealed that season 11, part three, will premiere on Sunday, October 2, on AMC in America.
As with the previous parts, the same episode is then going to drop internationally the next day on the streaming service Disney+.
But the news of The Walking Dead ending with season 11 even came as a shock to its cast and crew last year.
Opening up to Collider, actor Morgan explained: “It came from nowhere and there was such a huge pivot.
“I think they had Season 11 all mapped out, where they were going to go, and suddenly it became, ‘We also have to close the story, in a way.’
“It took everybody by surprise, so it was a massive pivot.
“And then, they threw in the six tacked-on episodes to Season 10, and instead of doing 16, we’re going to do 24 more. There was a lot of stuff to wrap our heads around.”
In the season 11 part two finale, The Commonwealth proved to be the most advanced community seen since the outbreak began.
So much so, that the organisation managed to take over Alexandria, Hilltop and Oceanside.
But was the attack approved by Governor Milton (Laila Robins) and if not, how will she react to Deputy Governor Lance Hornsby’s (Josh Hamilton) bold move?
The Walking Dead season 11 part three premieres on Sunday, October 2, on AMC in America and Monday, October 3, on Disney+ in the UK.
