Due to the global health crisis, the official release date of Fear the Walking Dead season 6 remains hanging up in the air at the moment. There are a lot of uncertainties right now, and it's yet to be seen whether the new installment will arrive in 2020.
Fear the Walking Dead season 6 didn't get the chance to film the entire installment -- unlike The Walking Dead season 10 finale. Because of this, there are questions as to when could the spin-off air on AMC. For now, everything all depends on the situation.
If the production resume in the coming months, there is a huge possibility that the series would deliver its new episodes at some point in 2020. In addition, AMC could also use the spin-off to feel the timeslot that was meant for the flagship show.
Everyone could come back to the set when things go back to normal. The top priorities at the moment are the health and safety of the cast and crew. When the situation gets better, then filming will likely resume and the series could air its new episodes this year.
Furthermore, Deadline previously reported that Fear the Walking Dead season 6 might still be released in the summer. However, viewers may not see the entire installment as it will probably be split into two. Only the first part will be released, which isn't a surprise move as the series has done it in the past.
Meanwhile, a lot of stories and new twists are coming in the sixth installment. In a report via Digital Spy Lennie James, who plays Morgan, teased what lies ahead in the new season. He hinted that whatever happens don't go the way everyone thinks it might go.
James shared the upcoming episodes have slightly different shade and color. There's also a possibility that Fear the Walking Dead season 6 covers longer and shorter time periods. What's different here is that the storytelling wouldn't be liner as it has been in the past.
The actor also added that this is a big season for his character. It can be noted that Morgan's fate is still in question, as the season 5 finale ended with the character being shot by Ginny. His life is in serious danger and it's yet to be seen whether he could escape the situation.
But aside from that, Fear the Walking Dead season 6 will also explore other interesting storylines. For instance, Virginia's story is worth-exploring given that she's a significant character in the series moving forward. She can control what's happening and has vision of what's right for the world.
