All hail The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live as Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln – Guillermo del Toro’s Cabinet of Curiosities, This Life) and Michonne (Danai Gurira – Black Panther, Avengers: Infinity War), the iconic zombie-slaughtering fan-favourites return. Will the couple be reunited after many years apart in this hotly anticipated new chapter of one of TV’s best-loved franchises?
The latest instalment is set to delight fans old and new and now following its UK premiere on Sky this May, the complete box set is now available to binge on Digital Platforms including to rent/buy on Amazon Prime Video thanks to Acorn Media International. The company is also delighted that The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live Season One will be coming to Blu-ray and DVD with the release date to be announced soon. Ravenous fans can pre-order now (Blu-ray) (DVD) and there’s already another series in the pipeline.
Post The Walking Dead finale, lovers Rick Grimes (Lincoln) and Michonne (Gurira) have been separated for many years by an unstoppable force. Five years after being taken by the Civic Republic Military, Rick has desperately been trying to escape to find his love. Michonne too, has been travelling far and wide, while fighting horrors far worse than the dead, in her unwavering, dangerous quest to be reunited with her soulmate.
Despite being deeply changed by the ever-evolving and increasingly brutal world around them, one thing remains true: they haven’t stopped searching for each other. The duo will stop at nothing for their homecoming. But as they’re thrust into new landscapes and the increasingly difficult challenges of new factions committed to waging war against zombies and humans, a peaceful reunion seems like an impossibility.
As human and zombie conflict thrillingly intertwine, the couples’ story continues. Will they still have the bond they once had? Are they enemies, lovers, victims or victors? And, most crucially, will they be able to survive The Walking Dead…?
