TYRESE AS TYRESE

MAKE IT HAPPEN

The way the show is going, I’d doubt we’ll see Michonne till the 3rd season and the Governor till the 4th.

Wikipedia already idicates that Tyrese has been cast for Season 1 (probably for the finale) and will be played by Keith Allen Hayes. His IMDB page: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm3193955/

I always wanted to see Angela Bassett as Michonne… but now I like the idea of Sanaa Lathan portraying her. And, I like the idea of Boris Kodjoe as Tyrese as well.

Cancel that…Keith Allen Hayes’ IMDB page credits him as a zombie only

Danny Trejo as the governor

Seriously? Tyreese? Thats the worst casting I’ve ever heard in my life. He’s awful!
Was that just, “Hey, I need a black guy to play Tyreese…HEY HOW ABOUT TYREESE?! SAME NAME!”
Lazy. Terrible.
Tyreese should be played by Chad Coleman (from The Wire)
Look him up. He’s perfect.

Ian Mcshane is an awesome choice for the Governor, whenever that happens, good pick, Steve!

I like the fact that they are going with relative unknowns. What I like about WD now is that when I look at the characters, I see only the character. I hate watching shows and then say to myself, “Oh that’s whats-his-face from whats-that-show/movie”. Keep the big, household names off my Walking Dead.

How many episodes are in Season 1?

–J.

way its going now i think that season one will end exactly (or just after) volume 1 with *spoiler* *spoilering* *spoiler* from seeing where there up to now and with only three episodes to go and now that there is thirteen episodes for season two i reakon they do volume two and three for that, so unfortuatly no michonne or governor for a while.

AgentoftheBat if you actually read the article they didn’t suggest Tyrese to play Tyrese. The picture is of Boris Kodjoe. They say his name in the article. Chill out and read next time

I too am also digging the generally unknown actor/actress being cast in TWD as having a “known” actor playing a part would kinda draw me out of the story as well.

I do disagree however on Michonne or the Governor not showing up until after Season 3. As we’ve seen and Darabonte has already done they’re not beyond mixing up the sequence of things to tell a good story. I imagine we’ll be seeing both characters pretty quickly into Season 2.

Like Sanaa Lathan, but no Tyrese for tyrese. I think Tyrese should be played by michael Jai White and wincott is a good choice for the gov. On a podcast about the walking dead i do believe that Charlie Adlard said that they are rushing to put Michonne in there because of her popularity, so she may be in the second season.

Sanaa is good. Kerry Washington or Kimberly Elise would be better. Boris Kodjoe is a male model who can’t act his way out of a paper bag. Let’s have an actor please. Maybe one of the amazing guys from The Wire.

I like Sanaa as Michonne too. By the way season 1 must end just like the sixth comic ended or I’ll be pissed. Discovery of the prison will be midway through next season and the Governor and Woodsbury will be the finale.

Governor = I thought about McShane as well. Even while reading the comics I was thinking of McShane. He was pure genius in Deadwoods and there’s many similarities between both characters.
Let it be him. The rest, I don’t care

For the most part, all of these actors need to be relatively indy, and can’t be recognized by the majority (in order to follow the conventions of the rest of the series). Secondly I don’t think we’ll make it to the prison, Or if we do the season will end with them just walking in to find Axel and the rest.

In my opinion, Michonne will be showing up earlier (I think they’ve announced that). All of the Hershells will also be featured I imagine, as his farm came before the prison.

Also, I have a feeling they may have to hold of on Tyrese for a little while. The beginning of the second season will already mean enough characters, and they already have T-Dawg, who may not be Tyrese but could act as a replacement for now.

Oh and we definitely won’t be getting the governor, though his appearance could also mark one of the “end of season” moments.

IMO, the only important ones here to be revealed will be the Hershells and Michonne.

In my opinion, although it may seem nuts, is that tyreese won’t even be in the show at all. and some of his actions and character traits will fall on to shane. maybe t-dog a small bit. its eaiser that way especially when you add derrel dixon to the mix…and merle.

Dang i thought your blog was killer, gave me a car load of information, i never knew, thanks blogger.

Season two of The Walking Dead is going to be amazing. My vote for actress playing Michonne is Tracie Thoms. I don’t know how you like to watch TV or what your personal preference is, but I enjoy the series on AMC in HD. But just a heads up if you have DirecTV, you can’t watch The Walking Dead on AMC in HD because they don’t carry the AMC channel in HD. Good news though, you can with DISH Network. That means you get zombies in HD with DISH! As a customer and employee of DISH I can’t say how happy I’ve been since I made the switch. Don’t you want to see your zombies in HD?
