It’s a big weekend for AMC and AMC+. The second season of the Lauren Cohan/Jeffrey Dean Morgan-led Walking Dead sequel series The Walking Dead: Dead City debuts at 9:00 p.m. ET on AMC (and 3:00 a.m. ET on AMC+).
But as one season begins, another one ends.
Last week, the third season of Dark Winds concluded. We’ll keep this article spoiler-free, but showrunner John Wirth and director Chris Eyre recently spoke with The Hollywood Reporter about the heart-wrenching finale. Has Dark Winds been renewed for a fourth season? When will Dark Winds return with new episodes? Here’s everything we know.
Nope. The Season 3 finale aired last week (April 27) on AMC.
The third season consists of eight episodes.
The 2004 film The Day After Tomorrow airs from 6:30-9:00 p.m. ET, followed by the second season premiere of The Walking Dead: Dead City at 9:00 p.m. ET.
Yes! Dark Winds has already been renewed for an eight-episode fourth season. The series started filming Season 4 in Santa Fe, New Mexico, in March 2025.
“I’m looking forward to exploring and inhabiting the character of Joe Leaphorn once again in Season 4, and I’m excited to make my directorial debut on a show that means so much to me,” Zahn McClarnon said in a statement. “I’d like to send my gratitude and appreciation to Kristin Dolan, Dan McDermott, and all of the hard-working folks at AMC Networks for their support and commitment to Dark Winds. And of course, I’m most thrilled to be spending time with this wonderful cast and crew whom I have grown to love.”
The new season is scheduled to debut in 2026 on AMC and AMC+.

The second season finale aired on September 3, 2023, before finding its way to Netflix almost a year later. Again, we have no official info, but if the third season does find its way to Netflix, it probably won’t be until 2026.
