We get an update for The Walking Dead Season 8 as three cast members have been upgraded to series regulars.
TV Line reports we’ll be seeing more from Negan’s right-hand man Simon (Steven Ogg), Carl’s crush Enid (Katelyn Nacon) and Scavengers leader Jadis (Pollyanna McIntosh).
This past Season of The Walking Dead happened to see three regulars go as well, with the deaths of Glenn (Steven Yuen, Abraham (Michael Cudlitz) and Sasha (Sonequa Martin-Green).
It’s also pointed out that The Walking Dead Season 8 will “carry a different momentum” compared to past seasons as the different factions’ rivalries are now all out in the open.
The Walking Dead Season 8 most likely premieres October 2017.
