Besides Morgan (Lennie James) moving over to Fear the Walking Dead from the original TWD show, Danay Garcia, who plays Luciana on FTWD, confirming on her Instagram that her character is returning to FTWD, lots of new characters coming in season 4, there’s also a big change coming to FTWD which is the timeline of the show.

Robert Kirkman revealed in the “Letter Hacks” section of The Walking Dead comic book issue #176 that TWD season 8 will lead directly into season 4 of Fear the Walking Dead. This will be a big time skip for FTWD and makes us wonder if all of the characters will be returning from the season 3 finale. Will we get to see any flashbacks of what happened to the characters during the time skip? Fear the Walking Dead returns April 15th!

“I don’t want to spoil anything story-wise, but we are changing things a great deal. It’s going to be a much different show that is not going to alienate any viewers that have been enjoying the show from season 1 to 3, but will give those people new things to love, and new characters to latch onto. It’s really going to shake things up.”
