That’s the first official photo from The Walking Dead, AMC’s upcoming television adaptation of Robert Kirkman’s long-running Image Comics survival horror series. Shooting began today in Atlanta under the directorial eye of Frank Darabont, with the first episode set to air in October. The series stars Andrew Lincoln as Rick Grimes, Sarah Wayne Callies as Lori Grimes, Jon Bernthal as Shane, Jeffrey DeMunn as Dale, Laurie Holden as Andrea and Steven Yeun as Glenn.

Truly a great day to be a Zombie fan, considering the recent quality of AMC TV Series (Breaking Bad, Mad Men) I fully expect this will be a production that will break through the Zombie Fiction ghetto and achieve mainstream success.
