AMC 's The Walking Dead is returning to our screens October 16th for a second season, but today Deadline report that Frank Darabont is no longer the show's series showrunner. The site states that Darabont may potentially be staying aboard the series in some capacity, yet no official announcement has been made.

The second season is currently in production & will feature a cast that includes Andrew Lincoln, Jon Bernthal, Sarah Wayne Callies, Norman Reedus, Laurie Holden, Jeffrey DeMunn, Steven Yeun, Chandler Riggs, Melissa McBride, Michael Rooker & Pruitt Taylor Vince.
