AMC and Fox have released the first two minutes of the highly anticipated midseason premiere of The Walking Dead. The show will return in the US on February 8th and on the following night in the UK.

Not a lot is know about what happens next, but after the tragic events of the mid-season finale – as well as losing the possibility of a cure in Washington, DC – Rick Grimes’ band of survivors find themselves on the road, surviving day-to-day and trying to hold on to their shredded humanity and dwindling hope.

Stripped of security and without a direction for the future, some of the group near their breaking point, some find themselves hardened and cold and some just try to grasp onto what little they have left.

Though they are still breathing, the line between Rick’s group and the dead is starting to blur. Could there be anything at this point that brings them back to life? We’ll have to wait and see, but with a sixth season already confirmed as being on the way, there are plenty of directions The Walking Dead can go in.

This first look at the second half of The Walking Dead’s fifth season doesn’t reveal much, but it definitely appears as if Rick and his fellow survivors will be setting off on a new path and towards a new destination.
