'The Walking Dead: Dead City' Season 3 episodes set to premiere at 65th Monte-Carlo Television Festival

"This 65th edition embodies both our commitment to our heritage and our determination to fully embrace the ongoing transformation of television. - Cecile Menoni"

Los Angeles, May 4

The much-awaited 'The Walking Dead: Dead City' is gearing up to make a return at the 65th Monte-Carlo Television Festival.

According to Variety, the first two episodes of 'The Walking Dead: Dead City' Season 3 will have an international premiere during the television festival in the presence of actors Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Lauren Cohan, alongside showrunner Seth Hoffman.

The upcoming third season of the show, which is produced by AMC Studios, is set to premiere in the summer on AMC/AMC+. The season will follow Maggie and Negan finally setting their differences aside to build the first thriving community in Manhattan since the apocalypse.

However, as the chaos begins to emerge across the city, they are left to confront a crucial question: have they truly learned from their past, or will their dark history ultimately doom the entire city?

At the 65th Monte-Carlo Television Festival, Spanish actress Ester Exposito will be honoured with the International Golden Nymph for most promising talent, recognising a rapidly rising international career since her breakout role in the hit Netflix series 'Elite'.

British actor Matthew Broome will also receive the International Golden Nymph for the most promising talent, honouring his fast-rising career driven by performances in 'My Fault: London' and 'The Buccaneers'.

Present will be Michel Drucker, who will be given the Honorary Nymph Award, in recognition of an exceptional career and his major contribution to the history of television. As per Variety, Kristin Scott Thomas and Kurt Russell will be presented with the Crystal Nymph Award.

The festival's fiction jury will be chaired by Lesley Manville alongside Charlene McKenna, Frederique Bel, Greg Daniels, Hojin Kwon, Kevin McKidd, and Yasmin Finney.

"This 65th edition embodies both our commitment to our heritage and our determination to fully embrace the ongoing transformation of television. More than ever, the festival is a place for encounters, discoveries and recognition of the talents shaping the stories of tomorrow," said Cecile Menoni, executive director of the Monte-Carlo Television Festival, as quoted by Variety.

The Walking Dead universe is getting too stretched now. Dead City, Daryl Dixon, all these spin-offs... but I'll still watch because I love Jeffrey Dean Morgan's Negan. He's such a complex character. Wondering if they'll show any desi survivors in Manhattan though - would be cool to see!

Look, I enjoy the show but honestly, how many times can they repeat the same "have they learned from their past" storyline? 😅 The first two seasons were decent but predictable. Still, Monte-Carlo Festival premiere sounds fancy - maybe the international audience will bring some fresh perspective to the writing.

As someone who's watched TWD since the beginning, I'm cautiously optimistic. Negan and Maggie's dynamic is the best part. But AMC needs to stop milking this franchise. Also, kudos to the Monte-Carlo Festival for honouring Ester Exposito - Elite was incredible!

Honestly, the whole 'building community in Manhattan' plot sounds too idealistic for a zombie apocalypse. But I'll give it a chance because Lauren Cohan is brilliant. My only complaint: why do all these Western shows take so long to release in India? We should get the episodes same day as US premiere! 🥲

The Monte-Carlo lineup looks impressive this year! Kristin Scott Thomas AND Kurt Russell getting Crystal Nymphs - that's some serious star power. As for Dead City, I'm just here for the Negan one-liners. "Easy peasy" forever iconic. 😂
