The Walking Dead TV Show Cast Update


Gfest loves Robert Kirkman.  "The Walking Dead" and "Invincible" are two of the best comic books on the market today, hands down.  

When we learned that AMC was going to develop a TV show out of "The Walking Dead" series, we were as giddy as a foreign baby around Angelina Jolie.

Entertainment Weekly reports that former "Prison Break" star Sarah Wayne Callies has landed the female lead role in AMC's "The Walking Dead." Callies will play Lori Grimes, the "slowly-unraveling wife of the show's hero, Rick."
 
"The Walking Dead" tells the story of the months and years that follow after a zombie apocalypse. It follows a group of survivors, led by police officer Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln), who travel in search of a safe and secure home.

The series begins production in June in Atlanta with six, one-hour episodes for season one. It is set to premiere in October 2010 during AMC's Fearfest.
