Everybody Hates Zombies! Tyler James Williams Joins The Cast Of THE WALKING DEAD

Everybody Hates Chris actor Tyler James Williams (that headline makes a little more sense now, eh?) has joined the cast of The Walking Dead's fifth season in what appears to be a pretty mysterious role. Is he someone from the comics or a new creation? Read on for details!

The Hollywood Reporter reveals that Tyler James Williams has been cast in the highly anticipated fifth season of The Walking Dead. Who is he playing? Well, AMC are revealing nothing, but the site confirms that his name is "Noah". That matches no one from the comic books, but this wouldn't be the first time that the series has given an actor a fake character name when they were first cast only to later reveal that they are indeed someone from the Robert Kirkman penned series. Some of the newer additions to the show include Seth Gilliam (Father Gabriel) , Andrew J. West (Gareth), Alanna Masterson (Tara) and Christian Serratos (Rosita). Williams is best known for starring in Everybody Hates Chris, and it should be very interesting to see if he's a new or existing creation here. Starring Andrew Lincoln, Norman Reedus, Steven Yeun, Lauren Cohan, Chandler Riggs, Melissa McBride, Emily Kinney, Danai Gurira, and Chad Coleman, The Walking Dead returns to AMC on October 12th.

He was part of The Walking Dead in past seasons, but always like uncredited Walker.

When he gets bitten in the show, how awesome would it be to hear the "Everybody hates Chris" song at the end of every episode. It would be the funniest thing ever!

If Terry Crews doesn't appear to criticize Tyler on how many bullets he's using then I'm not tuning in.

Yeah, that's the second kid from that show to come on TWD. Maybe TWD is the future world from "Everybody Hates Chris".
