Posting a statement on their official Twitter page, they told fans: 'Current events have unfortunately made it impossible to complete post-production of The Walking Dead Season 10 finale, so the current season will end with its 15th episode on April 5.

'The planned finale will appear as a special episode later in the year.'

This means the series, which started last October, will now conclude with its penultimate episode, while the finale will follow as a standalone episode at an as yet unknown date.

Executive producer and director Greg Nicotero clarified in the comments: 'Post production for those who are curious involves VFX, music, sound mixing and sound FX. This process usually goes up to about 3 weeks from air date.'

He added: 'I'm finding out about this same time you guys are and it's disappointing but the episode will not disappoint. Be safe everyone.'

The American show, which is based on a comic book series, has run for 10 years and starred British actor Andrew Lincoln in the first nine seasons.
