The Walking Dead Season 5 Episode Guide Of Directors And Writers

While sometimes this information can change as the season finishes filming, we have a preliminary list of the directors for all the episodes of Season 5 of The Walking Dead. We also have a list of all the writers for the first eleven episodes of Season 5 of The Walking Dead.

One thing that stands out this season is that special effects guru Greg Nicotero is going to be very busy this year if this schedule sticks. Nicotero is directing four episodes, including the premiere and the finale, which are likely to be more demanding than the average episode.
