Executive producer Eli Jorné revealed the cast additions during the AMC show's Hall H panel on Friday. They are Keir Gilchrist (Atypical, It Follows), who will play Benjamin Pierce; Dascha Polanco (Orange Is the New Black, Poker Face), as Major Lucia Narvaez; Jake Weary (Oh, Canada, How to Blow Up a Pipeline) as Christos; and Pooya Mohseni (Law & Order: SVU, See You Then) as Roksana.
The Walking Dead: Dead City follows Maggie (Lauren Cohan) and Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) as they travel to a post-apocalyptic Manhattan, long cut off from the mainland. The crumbling city is filled with the dead and residents who have made New York City their own world of anarchy, danger, beauty, and terror. In season two, amid the growing battle for control of Manhattan, Maggie and Negan find themselves caught on opposite sides. As their paths intertwine, they discover that the way out for both of them is more complicated and terrifying than they ever imagined.
During Friday's Comic-Con panel, Morgan promised the return of his character's signature leather jacket and his love interest Lucille. He also talked about his relationship with that damn bat and treated Comic-Con attendees to his epic whistle.
