First Look at Kevin Carroll as Virgil in The Walking Dead Season 10

AMC has released first look photos of Kevin Carroll (The Leftovers, Snowfall, Lucifer) as Virgil in The Walking Dead Season 10 as part of their 10 weeks of reveals leading up to the season premiere on Sunday, October 6 at 9 PM ET/8 PM CT. You can check out the new photos now in the gallery below!

Virgil is described as a highly intelligent and resourceful character desperately trying to get home to his family. He joins the recently announced Thora Birch, who will play the Whisperer Gamma in the upcoming season.

The Walking Dead is a story that started 10 years ago with one man trying to find his family. That family grew and gradually communities took shape. They fought and survived, thrived and gave birth to a new generation. It is a tale of humankind and there are more stories to tell.

It is now Spring, a few months after the end of Season 9 when our group of survivors dared to cross into Whisperer territory during the harsh winter. The collected communities are still dealing with the after-effects of Alpha’s horrific display of power, reluctantly respecting the new borderlines being imposed on them, all while organizing themselves into a militia-style fighting force, preparing for a battle that may be unavoidable.

But the Whisperers are a threat unlike any they have ever faced. Backed by a massive horde of the dead it is seemingly a fight they cannot win. The question of what to do and the fear it breeds will infect the communities and give rise to paranoia, propaganda, secret agendas, and infighting that will test them as individuals and as a society. The very idea of whether civilization can survive in a world filled with the dead hangs in the balance.

The Walking Dead also stars Norman Reedus, Melissa McBride, Alanna Masterson, Josh McDermitt, Christian Serratos, Seth Gilliam, Ross Marquand, Xander Berkeley, Khary Payton, and Jeffrey Dean Morgan.

Based on the comic book series written by Robert Kirkman and published by Image Comics, The Walking Dead reigns the number one drama on television among adults 18-49 for the last six seasons. The series is executive produced by chief content officer Scott M. Gimple, showrunner Angela Kang, Robert Kirkman, Gale Anne Hurd, David Alpert, Greg Nicotero, Tom Luse and Denise Huth.
