Those of you looking forward to the Walking Dead spin-off, TVline has the list of six principal characters for the potential new series. AMC is saying that the new series, written by showrunner Dave Erickson and Walking Dead creator Robert Kirkman, will focus on the early days of the epidemic and the efforts to contain it.

SEAN CABRERA | A Latino male in his early 40s, Sean is a good man trying to do right by everyone in his life.

CODY CABRERA | Sean's whip-smart and rebellious teenage son. Known as the angriest kid in town.

NANCY TOMPKINS | A thirtysomething single mom to two kids, Nancy looks like the girl next door, but there's an edge to her.

NICK TOMPKINS | Nancy's screwed up teenage son. He's too old to stay home, too scared to flee.

ASHLEY TOMPKINS | Nancy's mostly level-headed teenage daughter. Her ambition is in direct proportion to her older brother's failures. She loves her mom but it's time to get out of Dodge.

ANDREA CHAPMAN | A somewhat wilted flower child, fortysomething Andrea — yep, another Andrea! — has retreated to the outskirts of the city to recover after a horrible marriage.
