"Stephen King has confirmed that he is in talks to write an episode of zombie drama The Walking Dead. The horror novelist told Entertainment Weekly that he has discussed a possible contribution with executive producer Frank Darabont. &amp;quot;[Frank] has expressed enthusiastic interest for season 2 or possibly 3,&amp;quot; he explained. Darabont has previously worked with King on four occasions, directing feature film adaptations of his works The Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile and The Mist and also helming a short film based on King&amp;#039;s story The Woman in the Room. Negotiations are still believed to be in the early stages, though King apparently intends to co-write his Walking Dead episode with son and fellow horror author Joe Hill. Fox is currently developing a pilot based on Hill&amp;#039;s own comic series Locke &amp;amp; Key. The second season of The Walking Dead will air on AMC in the US and FX in the UK in late 2011. &amp;gt; Kirkman teases new Walking Dead season "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
