There's been a lot of casualties in this season of The Walking Dead, but it looks as if Rick will soon be able to add a new recruit to his band of survivors. TV Line has now confirmed that Chad Coleman (The Green Hornet) has indeed joined the cast of the hit AMC series as fan-favourite character 'Tyreese'. The site even goes on to reveal that we should expect to see him as soon as next week, although whether his role in the show will differ to that of the comic book series remains to be seen. Are you looking forward to seeing the debut of the character? Sound off below.
UPDATE: TV Overmind reports that this season will also see the return of Lennie James as 'Morgan'; the man who Rick first met in season one while he was searching for 'Lori' and 'Carl'. However, they say that he will appear "From a Distance" rather than having any direct involvement in the conflict with 'The Governor'.
