Meanwhile, executive producer Gale Anne Hurd revealed some key details on the upcoming season's plotline (via Entertainment Weekly).

"The show has spent a lot of time in primarily rural settings. But you're never going to find the cure to the zombie apocalypse in the sticks," said Hurd.

"Now with the group embarking on a mission, they have to re-enter what we call the City of the Dead. There are many cities of the dead that they'll have to encounter to complete their mission. So not only does it make it more difficult because the number of walkers, but also there are more hiding places in which their human antagonists can lurk. So however stiff and difficult the stakes have been up until this season, now they've been raised even further."

The Walking Dead season five premiere episode, No Sanctuary, airs Sunday, 12 October at 9 pm ET on AMC.

The official synopsis of the premiere episodes reads:

"The true motives of the Terminans come to light; Rick and the others end up in a situation."
