Lauren Cohan Calls New Dead City Character a 'Revelation' in Season 3 Sneak Peek

Lauren Cohan is dropping huge praise for a new character joining *The Walking Dead: Dead City* in Season 3. She called Jimmi Simpson's Dillard a "revelation" and "one of my favorite characters in all 'The Walking Dead.' Period. Full stop." That's high praise from Maggie Rhee herself!

The third season, hitting AMC on July 26th, offers a fresh look at Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) and Maggie’s (Cohan) evolving dynamic in post-apocalyptic Manhattan. Showrunner Seth Hoffman teases Dillard as a "flip side to Negan." Dillard, a survivalist hermit, represents what happens if you reject people. This challenges Negan, who's at a crossroads himself, considering abandoning everyone. The pair will bond over drinks and "interesting" games, hinting at a compelling, complex relationship.

New faces don't stop there. Aimee Garcia joins as Renata, a charismatic leader and "matriarch" of a new group with ties to the formidable Croat. Hoffman describes her as a "flip side to Maggie," suggesting a parallel leadership style. Raúl Castillo’s Luis, a doctor and Renata’s brother, will mentor Hershel (Logan Kim), inspiring him to follow his grandfather’s medical footsteps.
