'Fear The Walking Dead: Flight 462' Web Series Premiere Date Announced

'Fear The Walking Dead' has been widely accepted by Walking Dead fans, with the noted exception of a small group who can't seem to get into the slower, more dramatic storyline which is almost zombie-free, focusing more on how a small community in the suburbs outside downtown L.A. are coping with the sudden apocalypse. I for one dig the more stripped down, melodrama side of the zombie apocalypse as the chaos only just begins. 'Fear The Walking Dead' has given a very plausible scenario with real characters that I connect with, curse at, and root for-of course in the back of my mind I am already giddy with excitement of what it will be like when the "shit" really does hit the fan and all those L.A. dead folk slam the small neighborhood hard.

All that being said, it really is seeing all these people at the very moments that life spirals down into chaos and confusion and fear set in surround the zombie apocalypse. It seems that a lot of fans dig it too cause not long ago it was announced that a companion piece to 'Fear The Walking Dead' was in the works. Now we have the true confirmation of said series as it has now been announced that the 16 part web series 'Fear The Walking Dead: Flight 462' would kick off the same night as the finale for 'Fear The Walking Dead' season one on October 4th, and then air as promos during two commercial breaks within The Walking Dead season 6 premiere episode on Sunday, October 11. Subsequent episodes, each less than one minute long, will debut every Sunday, online and then on-air as promos during new episodes of The Walking Dead, for the duration of Season 6. In addition, one of the characters featured in the web series will join the cast of Fear The Walking Dead Season 2.

Fear The Walking Dead: Flight 462 tells the story of a group of passengers aboard a commercial airplane during the earliest moments of the outbreak. Over the course of the series, the plane and the lives of its passengers are put in jeopardy once they discover an infected traveler. The series is written by L. Signorino and Mike Zunic and directed by Fear director of photography Michael McDonough. Producers areFear showrunner Dave Erickson and co-exec producer David Wiener.
