NEWS: Glen Mazzara Takes Over as The Walking Dead's Showrunner


After yesterday's surprise announcement that Frank Darabont had stepped-down as Showrunner on AMC's The Walking Dead, news has emerged that his successor has already been appointed in the form of Glen Mazzara.

Mazzara certainly seems to be the right man for the job. After all, he was Darabont's #2 during both Seasons and wrote Season 1's Wildfire. From a production point-of-view his appointment also makes sense and will hopefully ensure the completion of Season 2 without too much disruption during the transition. Whether Mazzara will retain his role for Season 3 - or even if there will be a third Season - has yet to be confirmed.

The Walking Dead returns to AMC on October 16th.
