Fear the Walking Dead Casts Gracepoint's Kevin Zegers for Season 4

AMC's track record for releasing the names of new Fear the Walking Dead casts members while giving us absolutely nothing else to work with rambles on with word exclusively from Deadline: Hollywood that Kevin Zegers (Notorious, Gracepoint) is set to join the series' fourth season.

To absolutely no one's surprise at this point, we know nothing about Zegers's role except that he is set to join returning FTWD cast members Kim Dickens, Frank Dillane, Alycia Debnam-Carey, Colman Domingo, and Danay Garcia, as well as previously announced new series regulars Garret Dillahunt (The Gifted, The Mindy Project), Jenna Elfman (Dharma & Greg, Friends with Benefits) and Maggie Grace (Lost, Taken franchise).

(Spoilers) Perhaps the biggest surprise awaiting Zegers when he steps foot on the set is the addition of Lennie James, who will be reprising The Walking Dead fan-favorite Morgan Jones on FTWD as part of a crossover between the series.

TWD/FTWD creator Robert Kirkman first confirmed during The Walking Dead's New York Comic Con (NYCC) 2017 panel that the two shows would finally acknowledge each others presence during either FTWD's fourth season or TWD's ninth season. Since then, the show's creators teased fans with a "The Worlds Collide" social media campaign that even got recently cast FTWD star Elfman involved. AMC finally revealed it was James by having him appear via satellite on the Talking Dead that followed TWD's sixth episode of Season 8: 'The King, the Widow and Rick.' The following day, FTWD broadcast the first day of shooting with James on Facebook Live.

Fear the Walking Dead is set to return for its fourth season in mid-2018, with production currently underway on location in Austin, Texas. The upcoming season will also mark the first for new showrunners Andrew Chabliss (Once Upon a Time) and Ian Goldberg (Dead of Summer), who boarded the series after Dave Erickson stepped down from his post following the Season 3 finale.
