The Walking Dead - Season 2 Teaser from Showrunner Frank Darabont

Frank Darabont has promised that the second season of The Walking Dead will raise the stakes for the show's characters.

In an official interview, Darabont explained: "My hope is that if we're lucky enough to be in the long run on a show like this, we'll be able to make the stakes as high as we can. I think that's just going to make the viewing experience more compelling for the audience."

He added: "I want the [viewers] to feel uncertain when they tune in."

The showrunner also insisted that the next series will be as visually spectacular as the initial six episodes.

"We're making a movie[-style show] and whatever we need to have that sense of scale and quality is what we're going to do," he said.
