This is the beginning of a new week and the start of a new series of "The Walking Dead" clips. The first clip for this AMC produced series is entitled "From Comic Book to TV" and in this four minute clip, Frank Darabont talks of how he came in contact with "The Walking Dead" comic book in 2003. As well, series creator Robert Kirkman talks of the process of transferring a comic book story to television.
The second clip is entitled "Who is Rick Grimes?" and this is a three minute showing, which displays actor Andrew Lincoln front and center. Lincoln talks about the trials and tribulations his character goes through and how he adapted his portrayal of Grimes based on his understanding of this "flawed" (AMC) character. The most new footage for the series is found in this second clip. Enjoy both below, until more clips are made available.
In case you have not been beaten over the head enough by the synopsis:
"'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).
