About

AMC's Walking Dead spinoff starring Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Lauren Cohan moved production to Massachusetts for Season 3, filming across Boston, Worcester, and Brockton starting in September 2025. Fort Independence on Castle Island in South Boston provided dramatic waterfront backdrops, while Brockton's Frederick Douglass Avenue was shut down for zombie-apocalypse street scenes. The crew spent three days filming in downtown Worcester before wrapping the bulk of production. The series follows Negan and Maggie into a post-apocalyptic Manhattan, but Massachusetts' historic architecture and urban landscapes provide fresh visual territory for the franchise. The Boston-area shoot represents a significant expansion of New England's role in major television production.
