And so will the zombies whenThe Walking Deadreturns with its midseason premiere on Sunday.
Instead of your typical assault in broad daylight, our survivors will be batting the undead in darkness.
And there will be more undead than ever before.
In what way is it unprecedented?
Its unprecedented because weve never seen our group in a situation like this.
And dealing with the fact that his group has been separated.
Plus, hes got more to protect.
You know, he has Jessie, he has the kids, everybody in Alexandria.
Its the action movie version ofThe Walking Dead.
What are the numbers that were looking at on this?
With reshoots and with additional photography and things, I think we were over 1,300 walkers for episode.
Oh, come on.
I had the biggest crew that I ever had on the shoot on set.
Weve seen giant groups of zombies before, but usually its during the day.
However this is happening at nighttime, which I assume gives it a different feel.
Well, that was something that I was extremely passionate and adamant about.
