Frank Darabont has revealed his plans for a potential second season of upcoming AMC drama The Walking Dead.

"When we get to season two - knock on wood - it will obviously be expanded from six episodes to 13," Darabont told Comic Book Resources. "I'm hoping that we might actually be able to shoot part of it in [winter]. It would be great not just to get out of the heat, but to present a different idea to the audience visually and tonally by having it be winter."

Frank expressed that he is eager to recreate a scene from the original comic series.

"There's some really cool stuff that Kirkman did, where they find the one zombie that's frozen to the ground. I'd never seen that before and that's really cool."

He also confirmed that he wants to introduce the character of Michonne, who in the comic series is badass and uses a samurai sword on the undead.

"When she comes striding out of the wasteland like a Clint Eastwood fucking spaghetti western character cross-melded with some samurai movie... and there's just a little drift of snow in the air. I would love to put that on film!".
