In regards to the sets, Kirkman teased, “Well, the things that excited me the most I cannot talk about! There are a couple of big set pieces that were built from scratch and it’s amazing to see Grace Walker work his magic. I will say that the worst thing about going back to set is that our prison has been dismantled. I kind of wish I had spent a little more time in it. It sucks to see that gone, but moving on, we’ve got cool stuff going on in this season. The secrecy has been fun. There are some really great things coming.”
In Season 4, Kirkman wrote Episode 9: After, which revealed part of Michonne’s backstory. According to Kirkman, Walking Dead fans can look forward to seeing more backstories in Season 5. Kirkman explained, “There are a couple of characters in particular coming up in Season 5 that will get very big chunks of their backstory revealed in a very cool way. Some of that is from the comic and, like always, some of it is not.”
The Walking Dead Season 5 is schedule to premier in October 2014 on AMC.
