Jeffrey DeMunn Joins The Walking Dead
April 17th, 2010
Add another name to the rapidly growing list of people who have signed on to experience the chaos of Frank Darabont's small screen envisioning of the Robert Kirkman graphic novel The Walking Dead.
FEARnet reports that Darabont film regular Jeffrey DeMunn (The Mist, The Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile) has joined the previously announced Jon Bernthal and Andrew Lincoln in the adaptation of Image Comics' zombie epic. No word yet on whom he will play, but stay tuned.
The Walking Dead is based on Robert Kirkman's popular comic series. It chronicles the months and years following a zombie apocalypse. Frank Darabont is the project's writer, director, and exec producer with Anne Hurd and David Alpert also exec producing. KNB will be handling the effects, and AMC has already ordered six episodes.

I truly hope they cast someone great for Andrea, granted Andrea is on the series. She's my favorite character next to Rick.

I'm more nervous about casting the kids.

That's the shit about that casting. It's going to be tough if they cast a horrific kid to play Carl. It's difficult to convey his emotions on screen. Plus, kids age, so they'd have to cast young.

Colin Ford was good as young Sam Winchester in Supernatural. I nominate him.

Somebody better impose a fisherman's hat on him right now.

I read the script for the pilot. Not sure I agree with the changes made but it's still good stuff. Can not wait for this show.
