AMC Global Media has signed a 5-year, $500 million co-exclusive streaming deal with Netflix and AMC+ for The Walking Dead franchise, including all 371 episodes and six spinoffs. This deal expands Netflix's rights beyond the U.S. to countries like the UK, Italy, and Australia, while AMC+ will also stream the full franchise for the first time. AMC Global Media sees this partnership as beneficial for both platforms, expecting it to boost engagement and subscriber interest without fragmenting the audience. The move continues AMC's long-standing collaboration with Netflix, leveraging the streaming giant's global reach to grow the franchise's fan base.
