    EW Debuts The Walking Dead Portraits and Production Shots


    Teasing its latest issue — the one with four collector’s covers featuring stars from The Walking DeadEntertainment Weekly has unveiled new cast portraits, behind-the-scenes photos and episode stills from the upcoming third season of the hit AMC drama.
    The portraits, which you can see below, show Rick Grimes, Danai Gurira as Michonne, David Morrissey as the Governor and Michael Rooker as the returning Merle Dixon. The behind-the-scenes photos, which you can see at EW.com, are particularly interesting, as they include animated walker transformations (among them, Michonne’s jawless, armless companions).
    The new season, which debuts Oct. 14, finds Rick and the other refugees from the Greene farm hoping to transform the West Georgia Correctional Facility — aka the Prison — into a safe haven, only to discover the greatest threat may not come from the zombies but rather from the nearby town of Woodbury.

On his own adventure, Spike is forced to examine the man he once was, the man he is now, and the man he still hopes to become.
