Mahina Napoleon sat down with Kiana Cayabyab to talk about her burgeoning acting career. As the interview came to a close, "The Walking Dead: Dead City" star appeared to let slip that the series has already been renewed for a second season. "I'm going to be going to L.A. to promote my TV show, returning to 'NCIS Hawai'i' for Season 3, and going back to 'Walking Dead' for Season 2," she said.

Cayabyab immediately asked if she meant she was returning to New York, which the young star then confirmed. Naturally, however, it's hard to come down on Napoleon too hard for this mistake, as the pre-teen is very new to the entertainment industry. Furthermore, even seasoned veterans have been known to have the occasional slip of the tongue from time to time, particularly during interviews.

On the plus side, this is great news for fans who were considering following "The Walking Dead: Dead City," as it ensures that the new series will not be one of those ill-fated shows that get canceled in Season 1, just as viewers are getting hooked. Either way, viewers can check out the AMC spin-off for themselves when it premieres on June 18, 2023.
