Gulf Weekly Shocking surprises in store for Walking Dead fans

Zombie apocalypse TV drama The Walking Dead is to be more shocking than ever when it returns in October.

The Walking Dead executive Glen Mazzara has promised more deaths in show’s highly-anticipated third season which will air on Fox International.

“You’ll have to find out when you watch it – but there are certainly unexpected deaths taking place throughout the third season,” Mazzara said.

“And this is definitely a show where we take that stuff seriously. I think we showed that in our last few episodes of season two. Those sort of hard-hitting emotional deaths are still going to be a part of the show for as long as it’ll be around.”

English actor David Morrissey will join the cast of The Walking Dead in the upcoming season as ruthless tyrant The Governor.

“Series creator Robert Kirkman’s got this great character named The Governor and we’ve cast David Morrissey to do that,” said Mazzara. “Trust me – he is a lot to handle. Rick (Andrew Lincoln) and the rest of the group are going to have their hands full.”

There will also be plenty of surprises throughout the season as Michael Rooker has confirmed that his character, Merle Dixon, will be returning.
