As The Walking Dead moves into rounding off the first half of its tenth season, the news doing the rounds is that the show's parent network, AMC, is planning on wrapping the series after Season 12 concludes in early 2022.

We Got This Covered reported the rumour, which comes from an anonymous source who also informed the outlet about an Aladdin sequel and a spin-off for TV show Arrow.
