A continuation of the Night of the Living Dead franchise is coming to audio.
New podcast The Dead will tell stories from that universe, produced by Bloody Disgusting and the George A. Romero Foundation. The writers for the 24 episode full cast series will be chosen "following an application process through which the George A. Romero Foundation will select the best candidates" (at present there are no details on its website). The series will air on the Cinedigm Podcast Network.
"We strive to work with amazing storytellers, and George A. Romero is one of the best to ever bring horror to the screen. Our goal with this project is to introduce and support a new generation of horror writers who are influenced by George, while honouring and preserving his legacy through socially conscious horror," Tom Owen, co-founder of Bloody Disgusting said.
Suzanne Desrocher-Romero, founder and president of the George A. Romero Foundation, added, "The George A. Romero Foundation is delighted to partner with Bloody Disgusting to foster George's innovative legacy. This unique model opens up new opportunities for writers and encourages their creative spirit. Under the guidance of Bloody Disgusting, I know that the final stories produced will entertain us all."
