Fear the Walking Dead Season 5 Episode Guide
Everything you need to know about Fear the Walking Dead season 5, including news, release date, trailers, cast, and much more!

The Walking Dead‘s little zombie brother is starting to walk on its own. Fear the Walking Dead season 5 is now underway on AMC.
It’s been a tumultuous year for Fear the Walking Dead. This season saw the arrival of Morgan Jones (played by Lennie James) from The Walking Dead universe’s flagship show. The show then made numerous other high profile additions to the cast, including Garret Dillahunt, Maggie Grace, and Jenna Elfman.
To thin out the crowd after all the new arrivals, Fear the Walking Dead killed two main characters who had been around since day one: Madison (Kim Dickens) and Nick (Frank Dillane). The violent, unpredictable world of the zombie apocalypse in The Walking Dead has always meant that the shows can call for a mass upheaval of the cast whenever they’d like but Fear the Walking Dead season 4 was the first time either it or The Walking Dead had tried it in such a systematic fashion. The effect has been at least intriguing enough for AMC to roll the dice on Fear the Walking Dead season 5.
Fear the Walking Dead is run by Andrew Chambliss and Ian Goldberg. Previous Walking Dead showrunner Scott Gimple is now overseeing the entire franchise. That could mean for crossovers or synergy between the two shows in future years.
Here’s everything else we know about season 5:
