The Walking Dead television series has been in our lives for almost a decade but bosses are warning that this is only the beginning.

On top of the show gearing up for its 10th season, weve also been given the news that AMC are working on three feature-length Rick Grimes films and three spin-offs, including one that will feature two young female protagonists and focus on the first generation to come-of-age in the apocalypse as we know it.

So it looks like theres a load more to come.

Speaking with The Hollywood Reporter, AMC boss Josh Sapan revealed: Nine years in, we believe we are just beginning to tap its full economic potential and were extending the franchise as any media company would.

We have a broad spectrum of rights…

We have a path to get to essentially every place that wed like to get, with the necessary agreements in some circumstances.

Speaking about the upcoming movies, Andrew Lincoln compared them to Clint Eastwood film, Unforgiven, saying: I thought the idea of a character that the audience knows and has lived with – and who has oscillated between psycho and father for nine years – to start in a completely different place, was a really interesting, crazy place to begin.

The Walking Dead season 10 is expected to arrive later this year.
