The show first aired in the US on AMC on June 18, 2023, and has not been available on UK screens since then. This has led to many UK fans of The Walking Dead calling for a local release, whether on TV, streaming platforms or physical media.
However, fans can now rest easy as Sky has announced that the next chapter of Maggie and Negan’s story will air on UK TV later this month. The Walking Dead: Dead City is set to premiere on Sky Max on Thursday, August 22 at 9pm.
The plot synopsis reveals: “Years have passed since we last saw Maggie (Lauren Cohan) and Negan, (Jeffery Dean Morgan) and the old enemies must now form a tenuous alliance in order to carry out a dangerous mission.
“Maggie and Negan travel into a post-apocalyptic Manhattan long ago cut off from the mainland, where they discover that 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.
“But as the pair moves deeper into the gritty depths of the walker-infested city, it becomes apparent that the traumas of their tumultuous past may prove just as great a threat as the dangers of the present.”

The star-studded cast of the upcoming series Dead City includes Dascha Polanco from Orange Is The New Black, Jake Weary of Animal Kingdom, Keir Gilchrist from It Follows, and Pooya Mohseni known for Terrifier. Fans will be excited to learn that not only has Dead City been confirmed for a second season, but it’s also slated for release in 2025.
In other news, The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon is set to premiere on Sky, with the entire first season available for binge-watching on Now TV. This move comes as part of a significant agreement between Sky and Now TV to bring a variety of shows from The Walking Dead franchise to viewers.

Sky’s director of acquisitions and strategic projects, Lucy Criddle, had previously commented on the deal, saying: “The Walking Dead Universe has a huge and ardent UK fanbase and we know audiences on Sky and NOW will be buzzing to see Rick Grimes and Michonne reunited in The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live, as well as being able to dip into the wider universe, enjoying all 11 seasons of the original The Walking Dead series, as well as new spin-offs Daryl Dixon and Dead City.”
