VIDEO : 'The Walking Dead' Star Joins 'Fear'

The Walking Dead star Austin Amelio is headed to Fear the Walking Dead to serve as the next crossover character between the two AMC shows. Having been entirely absent from The Walking Dead's ninth season, Amelio will reprise his role as Dwight on Fear the Walking Dead, ComicBook.com has learned from multiple sources involved with the series. The move follows the crossover lead previously carried out by Morgan Jones actor Lennie James. Speaking to members of the press at San Diego Comic Con, the Dead universe's chief content officer Scott Gimple was quick to not rule out any possible crossovers in the future despite The Walking Dead seeing a massive time jump.
