Fear the Walking Dead confirms the Season 7 premiere date at Comic-Con@Home while also debuting new clips.

AMC's Fear the Walking Dead Season 7 finally has a premiere date.

Announced at Comic-Con@Home, Fear the Walking Dead Season 7 will premiere on Sunday, Oct. 17. It was also confirmed that Gus Halper will join the cast for the upcoming season, though his role is being kept under wraps. In addition to the release date announcement, the first footage from Season 7 was revealed.

"We were very excited about the new form the show took in the anthology format in Season 6, with telling more concentrated characters' stories," showrunner Ian Goldberg explained in June. "That will continue into Season 7. We will continue to tell the show in that structure, and in that format. That excites us, because like in Season 6, we're going to get to see a variety of different kinds of stories, different tones, different worlds within the episodes themselves, and we've been really happy with how that's been going so far."

Season 7 of Fear the Walking Dead premieres Sunday, Oct. 17 on AMC. Those who subscribe to AMC+, however, can catch the premiere several days early.
