With production currently under way onFear the Walking Dead Season 3in Baja, Mexico, AMC has released the first three photos and the official synopsis for these new episodes. The photos give us our first look at returning characters Madison Clark (Kim Dickens) and Travis Manawa (Cliff Curtis), while Nick (Frank Dillane) is seen comforting a terrified Luciana (Danay Garcia). We also see a pensive and bloodied Strand (Colman Domingo). Take a look at the official synopsis forFear the Walking DeadSeason 3 below.

“AsFear the Walking Deadreturns for season three, our families will be brought together in the vibrant and violent ecotone of the U.S.-Mexico border. International lines done away with following the world’s end, our characters must attempt to rebuild not only society, but family as well. Madison (Kim Dickens) has reconnected with Travis (Cliff Curtis), her apocalyptic partner, but Alicia (Alycia Debnam-Carey) has been fractured by her murder of Andres. Madison’s son mere miles from his mother, Nick’s (Frank Dillane) first action as a leader saw Luciana (Danay Garcia) ambushed by an American militia group, the couple escaped death, but Nick no longer feels immortal. Recovering both emotionally and physically, Strand (Colman Domingo) has his sights set on harnessing the new world’s currency, and Ofelia’s (Mercedes Mason) captivity will test her ability to survive and see if she can muster the savagery of her father.”
