Buffy The Vampire Slayer Star Joins Fear The Walking Dead

Fear The Walking Dead kicked off production on its third season last month, and it looks like the cast is starting to get a bit more crowded.

The show has added former Buffy The Vampire Slayer and Once Upon A Time actress Emma Caulfield.

TV Line broke the news Thursday afternoon, as AMC confirmed that the actress will have a role in the show. What the network didn’t say however, is how many episodes she would appear in. It could just be a character that appears in a couple of episodes, but there’s a chance she could be much more than that.

In fact, it was mentioned after last season ended that the new episodes would feature a major female villain. Caulfield has played a villain before, so could she be breaking bad once again for this role?

Season three of Fear The Walking Dead is being filmed now, and is expected to begin airing on AMC this summer.
