UPDATE: Executive producer Frank Darabont has left the staff of The Walking Dead. No word yet on who will replace him as the showrunner, but let’s hope it’s someone good. We’ll deliver additional info as it becomes available. (Deadline)
Well I thought I had it all but apparently I missed a few Walking Dead tidbits from Comic Con.
- During the main panel the cast, while tight lipped, still managed to answer a few questions and give some hints at the upcoming season. (io9)
- Steven Yeun, who is by far my favorite cast member after last season, talked about how his new romance would affect his character. (Digital Spy)
- The Walking Dead television series wasn’t the only thing that was a hot ticket item. The first screen shot of the upcoming game was also released and it looks great. (FEARnet)
Check out the first shot of one of the infected from the upcoming REC 3: Genesis. (Dread Central)
After the break, check out the trailer for the Mexican zombie film Los Infectados. It’s directed by Gareth Edwards, who brought us the awesome indie flick Monsters last year, which I highly recommend. (Twitch Film)
The first reported zombie case has finally been made public. A South African man has awoken after being pronounced dead and placed in the morgue for over 20 hours. These are truly the end times… or not. (Cincinnati.com)
Whoa, had me hyped up there for a sec. Turns out the Mexican zom flick is directed by Alejandro Alegre, who is said to have accomplished a “Monsters”-esque scale on a similarly low budget. Looks interesting!
