The panel spotlighted an upcoming standalone episode called “A Certain Doom”, which will serve as the season 10 finale and will air on Oct. 4. While this might technically be the finale, AMC has extended the season with six additional episodes set to air in early 2021.
“We’re working on those now and will have more to share soon,” Kang said, adding that season 11 will not be airing this year. Instead, “Fear the Walking Dead” will premiere its sixth season on Oct. 11.
In the finale episode, fans will see Whisperer leader Beta engage in the final battle of the Whisperer War.
“Beta is used to being the beta and Alpha would tell him what to do,” Kang said. “He’s had to find some other voice to tell him what he’s got to do now that he’s the beta-alpha hybrid so we’ll see what happens from there.”
In talking about his character, Daryl, Reedus mentioned the way he is always pulled into situations he may not particularly like.
“Those moments of kind-hearted laughter and togetherness, I think needs that as well. He’s never the guy that initiates them.”
