Fear the Walking Dead Season 8: It's Time for Morgan to Come Home

Returning for Season 8 on May 14th, AMC's Fear the Walking Dead released mini teasers for Lennie James' Morgan & Austin Amelio's Dwight.


With a little less than a month to go until AMC's Fear the Walking Dead kicks off its eighth & final season run, we have some very cool mini teasers to pass along. Previously, we were treated to some preliminary season preview images, a few teasers, and an official trailer that gave us a much better sense of what the time jump looks like – and just how bad things have gotten for our heroes. But with the endgame at hand, we're being reintroduced to the major players and what's at stake as the original TWD spinoff series ends its run through a series of mini-character profile teasers. For this go-around, we have a look at Lennie James' Morgan Jones – with a caption telling him that it's time to come home. Following that, we have a look at Austin Amelio's Dwight – wondering if he's ready for what's to come.

Here's a look at the mini-character profile teasers that were released, followed by a look back at what we know about the final season so far:

Fear the Walking Dead Season 8: What You Need To Know…

The eighth season of Fear the Walking Dead begins after the conclusion of Season 7 when Morgan's (James) and Madison's (Kim Dickens) hopes to rescue Mo from PADRE did not go as planned. Now, Morgan, Madison, and the others they brought to the island are living under PADRE's cynical rule. With our characters demoralized and dejected, the task of reigniting belief in a better world rests with the person Morgan and Madison set out to rescue in the first place — Morgan's daughter, Mo.  The season stars James, Dickens, Colman Domingo, Danay Garcia, Austin Amelio, Christine Evangelista, Karen David, Jenna Elfman, and Rubén Blades. Now, here's a look at the official trailer for the long-running spinoff series' final run (followed by the overviews for the first three episodes), with the series returning on May 14th:
