Scott Wilson Talks Life After The Walking Dead

Scott Wilson is an iconic actor, spanning generations with his fantastic roles, but around here we know him as The Walking Dead‘s Hershel Greene.

Sadly, Hershel hasn’t been around much on The Walking Dead lately, seeing as the Governor cut off his head, but Scott Wilson is! “I’m doing a show called Damien,” he told us. “It comes out in March, I believe, somewhere around March on A&E.”

As for his new character, it doesn’t sound much like Hershel Greene at all. “He’s kind of a power broker. I wear big suit and know the corners of powers,” he told us, adding, “Bradley James is playing Damien and Barbara Hershey is in the show. It’s a fine cast of actors.”

Of course, there are rumors speculating that Michael Rooker, who played Merle for three seasons of The Walking Dead, could return to The Walking Dead‘s sixth season through the flashback episode mentioned by Scott Gimple at Comic Con, but when we asked Wilson if he would return, he told us, “I’m not holding my breathe.”

The Walking Dead returns for its sixth season October 11 on AMC.
