“Fear the Walking Dead” Season 7 Trailer Makes the Outside Air as Deadly as the Zombies [Video]

AMC’s spinoff series “Fear the Walking Dead” will be back for its seventh season just in time for Halloween, and the brand new official trailer has been unleashed this afternoon.

Season 7 premieres Sunday, October 17 at 9pm ET/8c on AMC, with new episodes premiering early on AMC+ all season, followed by a new episode of Talking Dead later that evening.

In Season 7…

“Teddy (John Glover) brought about his vision of “The End” when he detonated nuclear warheads across the Texas landscape, but it will be up to those who survived to decide what “The Beginning” will look like. And they’ll have to do it in a world devoid of light and hope, where the outside air is just as deadly as the walkers they face. The survivors will find out who they really are and what they’re really made of. Some will rise to the occasion, some will find new purpose, and some will redefine themselves — even if it comes at a terrible cost to those they once considered family.”

“Fear the Walking Dead” cast member Alycia Debnam-Carey will make her directorial debut in Season 7, we’ve also learned today. Additionally, “Sydney Lemmon will return as Isabelle and Gus Halper joins the cast as Will” in the upcoming seventh season.

Aisha Tyler will also appear in the new season.

Watch the official trailer below. “Fear the Walking Dead” is executive produced by Scott M. Gimple, Showrunners Andrew Chambliss and Ian Goldberg, Robert Kirkman, Gale Anne Hurd, Greg Nicotero and David Alpert and is produced by AMC Studios.
