It’s a mystery because even the writers don’t know how long he’ll be walking around waiting for something to do…
The zombie drama has recruited “Go On” and “Everybody Hates Chris” alum Tyler James Williams as a character named “Noah”, says THR.
It’s unclear which episode Williams will make his debut in or if he’ll be around in a guest, recurring or regular capacity.
The Noah character does not exist in Robert Kirkman’s comics, on which the AMC series is based. The TV adaptation has previously featured a character named Noah — played by Parker Wierling — who was a teenage resident of the Governor-led Woodbury and killed during the camp’s battle with Rick and company.
Williams joins a growing cast that includes “The Wire” alum Seth Gilliam as comics character Father Gabriel and new series regulars Andrew J. West (Terminusbaddie Gareth), Alanna Masterson (Tara) and Christian Serratos (Rosita).
“The Walking Dead” returns Oct. 12 on AMC.
