The Walking Dead has started casting another major comic book character.
TV Line reports that the show is finally putting out casting calls for Ezekiel, a major character in the comic books that was introduced as a new ally for Rick and the gang during the Negan storyline. The casting call is for a recurring role, the “flamboyant and wise, nice and weird” Augustus, but according to reports this is for the role of Ezekiel.
In the comic books, Ezekiel was the leader of a group of survivors known as “The Kingdom” and joins Rick in the fight against Negan. In addition, Ezekiel owns a pet tiger named Shiva.\
Meanwhile, Steven Yeun‘s casting in the upcoming sci-fi movie Okja has lead many to believe that Glenn is the victim of Negan’s gruesome murder, as he was in the comic. It doesn’t really confirm anything, so it’s hard to guaranteed what really happened.
