The cast of The Walking Dead is going to keep growing in season 9, as it looks like as many as 11 new characters could be joining AMC’s hit zombie drama in its latest run.
By compiling information from leaked photos and reports from the set, Reddit user @LastGreene put together a collage of characters and actors expected to appear when the show returns.

As reported by TV Line, she’ll be the first deaf character on the show and is described as using “her senses to read people, situations,...
