Fear the Walking Dead: Dead in the Water spinoff, first look – Undead Walking

Fear the Walking Dead: Dead in the Water, the first spinoff of a spinoff in The Walking Dead universe, will premiere on AMC+ on Sunday, April 10. This digital series will take viewers back to the beginning of the outbreak aboard the USS Pennsylvania submarine that was first featured in season 6 of Fear TWD.

Nick Stahl, who portrayed Riley on Fear TWD, will reprise his role in this series as he was a weapons officer before becoming one of cult leader Teddy Maddoxs (John Glover) minions. Dead in the Water will see Riley, a new father, fighting to survive as he is trapped on the sub that becomes overrun by the undead.

It is a fascinating concept for a storyline, and the spinoff will give us a back story of Riley. Although he did meet his demise during the final episode of Fear TWDs season six, The Beginning.
