Deadline reports. Isle of the Dead will be set in New York City and will follow Morgan's character Negan and Cohan's character Maggie as they head for Meridian, the town Maggie lived in after the apocalypse began.

Eli Jorné, who wrote on The Walking Dead for several seasons and served as a co-executive producer on the program as well, will be the showrunner for the new program.

Dan McDermott, who serves as the president of Entertainment and AMC Studios for AMC Networks, told the outlet how excited the network was about the upcoming show.  'This is a very big day for the expanding universe we are building around The Walking Dead,' McDermott told the outlet.  'It not only adds another compelling series to this collection, it extends our storytelling around two unforgettable characters fans have grown to love, hate or hate and then love in Maggie and Negan, brilliantly inhabited by Lauren and Jeffrey.  'It also lets us explore a corner of this universe located on the island of Manhattan, with an iconic skyline that takes on a very different meaning when viewed through the lens of a zombie apocalypse. '  The announcement of the new show came during The Walking Dead's final season.
