Right now the Fear the Walking Dead panel is going on at Comic-Con and sadly nobody has asked them why the title is so terrible. Anyway, along with bringing out the very impressive cast, the first full trailer for the companion series has been released to establish how this one is different from The Walking Dead.
Starring Cliff Curtis, Kim Dickens, Alycia Debnam-Carey, Elizabeth Rodriguez, Ruben Blades, and Frank Dillane, the show takes the zombie action to the big city of Los Angeles, depicting the dawn of the outbreak. Here's the synopsis:
"A companion series to “The Walking Dead,” the #1 show on television among adults 18-49, “Fear the Walking Dead” takes us back to the beginning of the zombie apocalypse – a time when the world was changing rapidly for reasons unknown, before anyone understood exactly what was happening, when life as everyone knew it was upended and altered in ways no one could have ever imagined. “Fear the Walking Dead” is executive produced by Robert Kirkman, Gale Anne Hurd, Greg Nicotero, David Alpert and showrunner David Erickson and produced by AMC Studios. The series, set in Los Angeles, stars Kim Dickens as Madison, Cliff Curtis as Travis, Frank Dillane as Nick, Alycia Debnam-Carey as Alicia, Elizabeth Rodriguez as Liza, Ruben Blades as Daniel, Mercedes Mason as Ofelia and Lorenzo James Henrie as Chris."
Fear the Walking Dead debuts on AMC on August 23rd.
