Mercedes Mason joins Fear the Walking Dead

May 9, 2015 by Gary Collinson

Last week it was announced that Elizabeth Rodriguez (Orange Is the New Black, Grimm) has joined AMC’s upcoming Walking Dead companion series Fear the Walking Dead, and now the show has added another new cast member in Mercedes Mason (Chuck, The Finder).

Fear the Walking Dead will shift the action to Los Angeles and take place earlier in the zombie outbreak than the original series. Mason and Rodriguez are the newest additions to the cast, with Cliff Curtis (Missing), Kim Dickens (Gone Girl), Frank Dillane (Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince) and Alycia Debnam-Carey (The 100) all appearing in the pilot.

Fear the Walking Dead is set to get underway on AMC later this summer.
