With the announcement coming on the heels of the cast and crew of Fear the Walking Dead heading to Austin, Texas in preparation for production of the show’s fourth season, the safe bet is that the crossover will take place on Fear the Walking Dead. As noted by Victor Strand actor Colman Domingo, fans of the AMC shows are going to spot actors on set which often reveals spoilers — meaning the reveal is just in time for an official announcement to take place ahead fans’ set photos revealing the news.
Following the announcement, speculation pointed to Michael Cudlitz reprising his Houston, Texas-based Abraham Ford character on Fear the Walking Dead. While Cudlitz says the idea is “awesome,” executive producer Greg Nicotero debunked the theory on an episode of ComicBook.com’s After the Dead.
Sunday’s Episode 8×06 of The Walking Dead is titled, “The King, The Widow, and Rick.” The officially synopsis for The King, The Widow, and Rick reads, “With things looking up for Rick and our group, an argument breaks out at the Hilltop. The consequences of the decision are life versus death.”
Fear the Walking Dead returns for its fourth season in 2018. The Walking Dead airs Sundays at 9 pm ET on AMC. For complete coverage and insider info all season long, follow @BrandonDavisBD on Twitter.
