Rick Grimes remains The Walking Dead's most famous character, and his spinoff show is sure to make up for his two-season absence from the main series. Following Andrew Lincoln's Walking Dead exit in season 9, it was announced that the actor would return for a Rick Grimes movie. Consequently, the Walking Dead movie was scrapped in favor of a spinoff miniseries. The franchise has already expanded with Fear the Walking Dead and The Walking Dead: World Beyond, and there are more spinoffs to come following the main series finale. These shows have crossover appeal, with Jadis being the main antagonist in World Beyond season 2 having an intriguing significance for the Rick Grimes show.
