AMC has just posted three video clips from The Walking Dead – an upcoming zombie TV series written and directed by Frank Darabont (The Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile). The first episode is set to premiere on AMC this Halloween at 10/9c.

I have been really looking forward to this series for quite some time, and yet, for some reason, I have neglected to post anything about it until now. Hit the jump to check out the new video clips as well as the official plot synopsis, trailer and other past behind-the-scenes videos to help you get caught up on what the show is all about.

Official Plot Synopsis:

AMC has greenlit The Walking Dead as a six-episode series based on the comic book written by Robert Kirkman and published by Image Comics. The Walking Dead tells the story of life following a zombie apocalypse. It follows a group of survivors, led by police officer Rick Grimes, traveling in search of a safe and secure home. Andrew Lincoln (Love Actually, Teachers, Strike Back) will portray the lead role of Rick Grimes while actor Jon Bernthal (The Pacific, The Ghost Writer) will portray the character Shane, who worked with Rick in the police department before the zombie disaster. Other cast includes Laurie Holden (The Shield), who plays Andrea, one of two sisters who join the survivors of the zombie plague, Steven Yeun as Glenn, an expert scavenger and Sarah Wayne Callies (Prison Break), who plays Rick’s wife Lori.

AMC indicates that there are six episodes for “Season One.” However, “Season Two” has yet to be greenlit.
