Leaked casting call for ‘The Walking Dead‘ Season 6 is looking for a psychologist.
It looks as though ‘The Walking Dead’ Season 6 is going to add a psychologist. According to a casting call reported on Wetpaint, ‘The Walking Dead’ is looking for someone to fill the role of Allison, a psychologist.
Allison, as the casting call points out, is on her late 20s to early 40s. She is described as a “smart, artful, and charming psychologist who quickly turns awkward and messy when it comes to her personal life. She’d much rather stay safely inside her comfort zone, but the true test of her mettle comes when the comfort’s gone and the stakes are life and death. She’s not cynical and really cares about people.”
The actor chosen one for the role on ‘The Walking Dead’ will be a recurring guest who will appear in multiple episodes of the series. Allison will debut in episode 2 of “The Walking Dead” season 6 and will also put in an appearance in episode 5. But just what business will she have in Rick’s walker-overrun world?

In other Walking Dead casting news, TVLine also announced the the arrival of another new character call Delvin — another potential name cover — a “twentysomething African-American cynic [who] is left so dumbfounded by displays of stupidity that it’s nearly impossible for him to admit that he thinks, down deep, people are — or at least can be — decent. Even if they’re idiots.”
