‘The Walking Dead’ Spinoff Gets Greenlight

Can’t get enough of The Walking Dead? AMC has ordered a pilot for a companion series to the zombie hit.

The pilot from Executive Producer Robert Kirkman and Dave Erickson (Sons of Anarchy) is expected to go into production later this year, and Erickson has already been tapped as showrunner should the series get picked up. The Walking Dead returns Oct. 12. [EW]
