SAN DIEGO (AP) — Here’s the latest from Friday’s sessions at the Comic-Con International fan festival in and around the San Diego Convention Center (all Times Pacific):
12:15 p.m.
“The Walking Dead” will be taking a look back.
Producer Scott Gimple teased the Comic-Con crowd with the possibility of more flashbacks in the upcoming sixth season of the AMC zombie apocalypse drama.
Gimple told the audience at the San Diego Convention Center that there’s “a whole lot of flashbacks in the first half of the season.”
The showrunner added that he’s working on an episode that takes place in the past.
The ominous trap-setting group teased last season called the Wolves will also be returning, possibly “in a way that you don’t expect,” said Gimple.
The session kicked off Friday with a trailer featuring a power struggle between Andrew Lincoln’s Rick and Lennie James’ Morgan — as well as lots of zombies.

Only at Comic-Con can a movie screening turn into a possible set visit.
Fans who came to a late-night showing of exclusive footage from the forthcoming “Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials” Thursday were first to enter a contest that could bring them to the set of the film’s third installment.
Beginning Friday, anyone can enter the free sweepstakes presented by movie-promotion company Kernel. The grand prize is a trip for two to the set of Fox’s “Maze Runner: The Death Cure.”
“The Scorch Trials” is set to hit theaters in the fall; “The Death Cure” is slated for release in 2017.
