Lesley-Ann Brandt in 'Lucifer' (2016)

AMC’s “The Walking Dead” Universe is set to expand with a limited series centered on Rick Grimes and Michonne, and Deadline brings us some more casting news today.

Lesley-Ann Brandt (“Lucifer”) will play a new character named Pearl Thorne in the series, Deadline reports. It’s said to be a “key recurring role” for the actress.

Production for the upcoming The Walking Dead Universe spinoff starring Andrew Lincoln and Danai Gurira is underway, with the six-episode series arriving in 2024.

The series presents an epic love story of two characters changed by a changed world. Kept apart by distance. By an unstoppable power. By the ghosts of who they were.

Rick and Michonne are thrown into another world, built on a war against the dead… And ultimately, a war against the living. Can they find each other and who they were in a place and situation unlike any they’ve ever known before? Are they enemies? Lovers? Victims? Victors? Without each other, are they even alive — or will they find that they, too, are the Walking Dead?

Scott M. Gimple, Chief Content Officer of The Walking Dead Universe, serves as showrunner and executive producer alongside Lincoln, Gurira, Denise Huth and Brian Bockrath.
