The first teaser trailer for The Walking Dead movie, which revealed the return of Rick Grimes, has just celebrated its 2nd anniversary. Since then, however, the production has never been heard again. To this day, fans are still waiting for news about the film.
The video released at the San Diego Comic-Com, eight months after Rick’s departure, shows a military helicopter from the Civic Republic flying over towards Philadelphia.

Previously, former showrunner Scott Gimple revealed to Talking Dead that it was indeed the end of Grimes in the franchise, but it was not the end of his story.
“We’re going to continue telling Rick Grimes’ story in a series of AMC original films. There’s a lot of story to tell.”
Meanwhile, co-founder and executive producer David Alpert said that filming had been suspended last year due to the Covid-19 pandemic. On the other hand, creator Robert Kirkman guaranteed that work was ongoing behind the scenes.
Although social isolation blocked numerous movie theaters last year, Gimple assured in December that The Walking Dead movie keeps the exclusive release for the big screen – meaning that Andrew could be back in Grimes’ shoes before the end of 2021.
