According to International Digital Times, Lawrence Gilliard Jr. is in talks to join the cast of The Walking Dead in its upcoming fourth season as Roy Stark. This would mean that the actor - perhaps best known for playing D'Angelo Barksdale in The Wire - will meet up with another actor from that series, Chad Coleman (who plays Tyrese).
