AMC has posted a plot synopsis for the upcoming fifth season of The Walking Dead. It recaps where Season 4 left off, and teases that there is a “hopeful prospect of a cure” and that the “true motives of the people of Terminus” will be revealed throughout this next season. Below the synopsis I’ve also included a new promo that was also released called “Hunt,” which counsels to hunt or be hunted. More importantly, it features a slow-mo shot of Rick (Andrew Lincoln) and Daryl (Norman Reedus) taking care of some business with some massive firearms. It’ll give you goosebumps, I promise.
Season 5 will premiere on Sunday, October 12 at 9/8c.
Season 4 of The Walking Dead ended with Rick and the group outgunned, outnumbered, and trapped in a train car awaiting a grim fate.
Season 5 picks up shortly thereafter. What follows is a story that weaves the true motives of the people of Terminus with the hopeful prospect of a cure in Washington, D.C., the fate of the group’s lost comrades, as well as new locales, new conflicts, and new obstacles in keeping the group together and staying alive.
Stories will break apart and intersect. The characters will find love and hate. Peace and conflict. Contentment and terror. And, in the quest to find a permanent, safe place to call home, one question will haunt them:
After all they’ve seen, all they’ve done, all they’ve sacrificed, lost, and held on to no matter what the cost…
Who do they become?
