THR.com is reporting that Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Austin Amelio, Xander Berkeley and Tom Payne will be full-time for Season 7 of the AMC program. Each had small roles at various points during this past year.
As a refresher, Morgan is back as the evil Negan; Amelio returns as Dwight, one of Negan”s crew; Berkeley is Gregory, leader of the Hilltop Colony; Payne plays Jesus, an ally of Rick.
Now that you”ve got all this straight, you just need to hang tight until the highly-rated series returns later this year. While the network has yet to announce a premiere date, it”s expected the new season of The Walking Dead will get going in October, as it has for each of the first six seasons.
