Los Angeles Goes Dark in New ‘Fear The Walking Dead’ Promo

The zombie apocalypse is going to take a serious toll on the beautiful city of Los Angeles in the first season of Fear The Walking Dead.

The Walking Dead companion series will give fans a look at the side of the apocalypse they didn’t get to see in the original. Since Rick was in a coma during the onslaught, TWD fans only got to see the world once it was full-on overrun. The new series, however, will take audiences through the madness from the very beginning.

In the new teaser, we see the city of LA go from normal operating day to Hell on Earth in a matter of seconds.

Fear The Walking Dead stars Kim Dickens as guidance counselor Madison; Cliff Curtis as Travis, a teacher who is involved with Madison; Frank Dillane as Madison’s troubled, drug-addicted son Nick; Alycia Debnam-Carey as Madison’s overachiever daughter Alicia; Elizabeth Rodriguez as Travis’ ex-wife Liza; Ruben Blades as Daniel Salazar; Mercedes Mason as Daniel’s daughter Ofelia, and Lorenzo James Henrie as Chris, Travis’ son.
