"The Walking Dead" spinoff finally has a name.
Show creator Robert Kirkman revealed the show's title as "Fear The Walking Dead" on his Twitter account Friday afternoon.

The show already has an order for two seasons, similar to AMC's other spinoff of a major franchise, "Better Call Saul." Both were guaranteed a pair of seasons before even airing an episode, and the "Breaking Bad" spinoff has lived up to the hype.
Details on the "Walking Dead" spinoff are slim, but it has been confirmed that Kim Dickens will play the female lead, Cliff Curtis will be the lead male and Frank Dillane and Alycia Debnam Carey will play characters that are brother and sister. The show will take place in Los Angeles, post-outbreak.
The first trailer for "Fear The Walking Dead" will be shown at the conclusion of Sunday's "The Walking Dead" season five finale. The first episode of the spinoff hits AMC this summer.
