Zombies don’t stand a chance in AMC’s trailer for the rest of The Walking Dead’s Season 5

By Rick Marshall Updated January 21, 2015

AMC’s hit zombie drama The Walking Dead is currently on midseason hiatus, but with the second half of Season Five kicking off in a few weeks, the network has offered up a brief trailer teasing what’s to come for Rick Grimes and the rest of the ragtag group of survivors.

Basically, it’s not looking good for the zombies — but the humans aren’t doing so well, either.

Titled “Another Day,” the 30-second preview of the remainder of the fifth season is jam-packed with scenes of zombies getting cut up, shot up, and run over as the group struggles to survive one day after another in a world filled with flesh-hungry monsters.

“We do what we need to do. And then, we get to live,” says Rick (Andrew Lincoln) at the start of the preview.

Already renewed for a sixth season, The Walking Dead returns for its midseason premiere February 8. The series is based on the comic-book series of the same name created by Robert Kirkman, Tony Moore, and Charlie Adlard, and along with Lincoln, the series also stars Norman Reedus, Steven Yeun, Lauren Cohan, Chad Coleman, Chandler Riggs, Melissa McBride, Emily Kinney, Danai Gurira, and Sonequa Martin-Green.

Don’t Make Me Go trailer previews tearjerker of the summer

Mia Isaac and John Cho in Don't Make Me Go.

The problem with a lot of modern movies is that they tend to lose sight of the fact that good drama doesn't always need spectacle. It can just be two people in a room at cross-purposes with each other. Or in the case of Don't Make Me Go, it's two people in a car together. The upcoming Amazon Prime Video original film stars John Cho as Max, the single father of a teenage daughter named Wally (Mia Isaac). Parenting Wally is hard enough, but Max also has to deal with the knowledge that he is terminally ill and he doesn't have a lot of time left.

Don’t Worry Darling’s trailer makes us question reality

Close-up of a young woman looking confused in the 2022 movie Don't Worry Darling.

Last week at CinemaCon, director and actress Olivia Wilde was the talk of the show for more than one reason. While speaking about her new film, Don't Worry Darling, Wilde was served with legal papers from her ex-partner, Jason Sudeikis. That was the gossip side of the equation. From an industry standpoint, it was the trailer for Don't Worry Darling that created a strong buzz for the upcoming flick. This thriller is not what we expected to see, but now you can watch the trailer for yourself.

While Wilde does have a supporting role in the film as Mary, the focus is on Florence Pugh's Alice, a woman happily married to Jack (Harry Styles). Or perhaps not too happily, since Alice seems to have eyes for Frank (Chris Pine) as well. You may find the beginning of the trailer somewhat disorienting since the time period is initially indistinct. But even once the trailer gets around to showing the film's '50s aesthetic, there's clearly something else going on beneath the surface. And once Alice catches a glimpse of a world that she doesn't understand, she wants out.

Giancarlo Esposito will star in new AMC series, The Driver

Black Noir in The Boys

In 2009, Giancarlo Esposito made an immediate impression as drug lord Gus Fring on AMC's Breaking Bad, and he's been a staple on the network ever since. Esposito also reprised his role as Fring for Better Call Saul. But now that the Breaking Bad prequel series is set to end this year, Esposito will finally headline his own AMC drama.

Via Deadline, Esposito will star in The Driver, a remake of a BBC One miniseries that originally featured David Morrissey (The Walking Dead) in the title role. Esposito will portray a cab driver "whose life is turned upside down when he agrees to chauffer a New Orleans-based Zimbabwean gangster notorious for exploiting undocumented immigrants at the U.S. southern ports."
