‘The Walking Dead’ Casts Its Eugene and Abraham!

Briefly: Season four of The Walking Dead premieres tomorrow, and AMC today revealed two new additions to the already expansive cast.

Rosita was cast back in September, leaving us all to wonder if we’d be seeing Eugene and Abraham too. Castings for the two characters were revealed today, so it looks as thought the trio is complete!

Abraham will be played by Southland’s Michael Cudlitz, who tweeted the following photo of himself on set:

Josh McDermitt will portray Dr. Eugene Porter, who basically lied about knowing the cause of the pandemic, convincing Abraham to take him to Washington, meeting up with Rick and the others on the way. Here’s a photo of Josh:

I’m looking forward to seeing the trio introduced. Their arcs have always been interesting in the comic series, and Abraham was a wonderfully developed character before he met his untimely demise.

Are you excited for the premiere tomorrow? I’ll be busy celebrating Canadian Thanksgiving, but I’m sure it’ll be a great watch once I’m done!
