The Walking Dead comic book series created by Robert Kirkman, captured the imaginations of readers with its post-apocalyptic narrative. However, the characters of Daryl and Merle Dixon, who would later gain popularity in the TV adaptation, were not part of the original comic's storyline. Norman Reedus's portrayal of Daryl became a fan-favorite, leading to the character's solo spin-off series titled The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon, where he embarks on a new chapter in France, searching for his former allies, Rick and Michonne, amidst human and undead threats.

Robert Kirkman, in reflecting on the creative process, acknowledged the collaborative effort that brought the Dixon brothers to life. He shared in The Walking Dead Deluxe #67 (via ComicBook) how various writers, including Jack LoGiudice and Charles H. Eglee, played a role in developing these characters. According to Kirkman, what makes the TV adaptation unique is the dynamic relationship between the actors and their characters.

AMC recently debuted a new teaser for The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon during the series premiere of The Walking Dead: Dead City.

Shared on Twitter following the Dead City premiere, the Daryl Dixon teaser shows the eponymous protagonist shipwrecked and stranded at sea. While the teaser doesn't explain how Daryl found himself in this situation, Walking Dead fans do know that the beloved character will eventually wash ashore in France, struggling "to piece together how he got there and why." The rest of the official description for Daryl Dixon reads, "The series tracks his journey across a broken but resilient France as he hopes to find a way back home. As he makes the journey, though, the connections he forms along the way complicate his ultimate plan."

Starlings Television president Chris Philip and Starlings Entertainment CEO Karine Martin, who set up the project and take executive producer credits, have attached Jack LoGiudice as showrunner.

The series pitches Lee as a veteran detective investigating a mysterious group of hunters who have attacked a famous news anchor and his family while on a camping trip. The detective, who lost his own son in a hit-and-run, finds himself mired in a twisted mystery orchestrated by an elite and powerful group with disturbing appetites.

Korean-American action star Don Lee and producing partner Chris S. Lee are teaming with Starlings Television to develop The Club, a drama series based on the popular Korean format Trap. Writer Jack LoGiudice has been tapped as writer-showrunner.

The Train to Busan actor, who will next be seen in Marvel’s Eternals, is set to star in The Club, a rare American adaptation of a Korean format to feature a Korean lead.

Known in Asia by his Korean name Ma Dong-Seok, Lee will play a veteran detective investigating a mysterious group of hunters who have attacked a famous news anchor and his family on a camping trip. The detective, who lost his own son, finds himself mired in a twisted mystery orchestrated by an elite and powerful group with disturbing appetites. He will slowly learn that nothing is as it seems and that there are killers hiding in plain sight.

Fear The Walking Dead is pacing itself nicely and threatening a headlong sprint into chaos at any moment...

1.3 The Dog

Fear The Walking Dead has been good, but not great, for its first two episodes. After a week off, the show returns to a cooler climate. Summer is becoming autumn, and as the sun and warmth begin to fade, so too begins to fade any hope of a positive resolution for the dysfunctional family at the center of AMC’s La-based zombie drama. The escalation of the situation hasn’t been slow, per se, but they’ve been taking their time and attempting to roll the carnage out in natural waves. Civilization doesn’t collapse immediately, it starts fraying at the edges and then spreads. The spreading has started.

One of the touches I like about Fear The Walking Dead is its sound design. To say...

Darabont reaffirmed the story picking up literally right where the first six episode season ends saying, “It picks up 2 seconds after the end of season 1. It literally begins with them driving away from the Cdc. There’s none of this six months later bulls***.” Darabont went on to comment on who the they were looking at to cast future characters Michonne, Tyreese and the villainous Governor after Kirkman joked that actor Ed O’Neill would play all three of them.

As soon as we thought we could predict the outcome of the Oscars, here comes another surprise! This one's brought to you by the Writers Guild of America. Picked for Best Original Screenplay was Christopher Nolan's "Inception." The director, famously dissed for not getting a Best Director Oscar nomination, may just win the Best Original Screenplay come Oscar night. Oscar front-runner, "The King's Speech" was not nominated because it didn't quality under union rules which prompted Nolan to say during his WGA acceptance award that he looked forward to a time when he could accept the award "without qualification."

That could be the beginning of a great script Mr. Nolan, go write it :happy

For adapted screenplay, I'm happy to report that Aaron Sorkin's fantastic script won! Based on "The Accidental Billionaires" by Ben Mezrich, "The Social Network" was the only film last year that I predicted to win this very category.

"I Love You Phillip Morris" came out of nowhere and secured a nod for the 2011 Writers Guild Awards. Based on the book by Steven McVicker, the film starring Jim Carrey and Ewan McGRegor as prisoners in love received a Best Adapted Screenplay nomination.

"Phillip Morris" will be competing with awards-favorites "127 Hours" (screenplay by Danny Boyle & Simon Beaufoy), "The Social Network" (screenplay Aaron Sorkin), "The Town" (screenplay by Peter Craig and Ben Affleck & Aaron Stockard), and True Grit (screenplay by Joel Coen & Ethan Coen).

In the Original Screenplay category, critics-darlings "Black Swan" (screenplay by Mark Heyman and Andres Heinz and John McLaughlin), "The Fighter" (screenplay by Scott Silver and Paul Tamasy & Eric Johnson), "Inception" (Christopher Nolan), and "The Kids Are All Right" (written by Lisa Cholodenko & Stuart Blumberg) will be competing with "Please Give" by Nicole Holofcener. Much like "I Love You Phillip Morris," "Please Give," a family dramedy set in New York,...

The most nerve-shredding thing about AMC’s new hit zombie show The Walking Dead is that you never know when somebody is going to get killed by a zombie. That being said, in the first three episodes no one actually did get killed by a zombie (well, if we don’t count the billions who were presumably felled by undead fiends while Andrew Lincoln’s hero-cop Rick Grimes was in a coma. And we don’t!).

All that changed in last night’s show, “Vatos,” as a campfire fish dinner suddenly turned into chow time for the undead, who feasted...

Has your sweet tooth for "The Walking Dead" been satisfied? If not, an inside look at Episode 3 is now available. In this five minute clip, Frank Darabont talks about the developing love triangle between Lori (Sarah Wayne Callies), Rick (Andrew Lincoln) and Shane (Jon Bernthal). Also discussed is the primitiveness of human behaviour in a zombie infested world, where base instincts now rule. Finally, have a listen to producer Gale Ann Hurd talk about how man is more threatening to man than zombie to man. Humanity basically breaks down under stress. The full clip is below and the video can be watch across territories (worldwide).

AMC's Episode 3 of "The Walking Dead" had some notable developments and the series seems to be focusing on several key characters. Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) is again forefront, but characters like Shane (Jon Bernthal), Lori (Sarah Wayne Callies) and a new character Daryl (Norman Reedus) are given some well deserved attention. Brotherly loyalties threaten to split the group, but the natural leadership of Grimes and a unified goal of returning to Atlanta bring some brief unity in the midst of a zombie apocalypse.

This episode's plotline returns several survivors from Atlanta to a remote, wooded outpost. Here, the undead have only started to probe for meals and also here, Grimes is reunited with his wife Lori and son Carl (Chandler Riggs). A sub-plot develops with wife beater Ed...

Episode Title: "Tell It to the Frogs"

Written By: Frank Darabont & Charles H. Eglee & Jack LoGiudice

Story: At long last, Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) is free and clear of Atlanta and in the loving arms of his wife Lori (Sarah Wayne Callies) and son Carl (Chandler Riggs). But not everyone is happy to see Rick home safe and sound, as his former police officer partner Shane (Jon Bernthal) takes out some aggression on one of his fellow survivors.

Happiness is short lived for Rick as well when the sheriff's deputy decides to return to Atlanta to retrieve his dropped stash of guns and rescue Merle Dixon (Michael Rooker) from his rooftop prison.

A Frog's Tale: It just keeps getting better and better. After two stellar episodes, "The Walking Dead" continued its impressive streak with "Tell It to the Frogs," a tension-filled hour with a solid helping of hope to boot.

What we mean is there will also be some stories and pretty cool characters to go along with all the bloodshed.

"Dead" is based on the long-running comic series by Robert Kirkman about a cop named Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) who wakes up from a coma in a post-apocalyptic wasteland. He discovers some not-so-friendly undead hospital staff and ultimately makes his way home to find his town and house completely deserted. Grimes hopes his wife, Lori (Sarah Wayne Callies), and son, Carl (Chandler Riggs), have made their way to Atlanta. Also joining the cast are Laurie Holden as Andrea, Emma Bell as Amy and Jon Bernthal as Shane.

USA announced today at their Comic-Con panel in Ballroom 20 that a Burn Notice prequel movie centered around Bruce Campbell is in the works. According to Variety, the telepic will follow “the last assignment of [Campbell's] character, Sam Axe, as a Navy Seal before his retirement.” Filming is set to begin after season four (currently airing) wraps and before the start of season five on location in Latin America. Campbell has long been a geek icon due to his role as Ash in the Evil Dead series, so Comic-Con is truly the perfect venue for such an announcement.
