So thats where I remember him/her from.

dori_dormer

Was watching Wuthering Heights the other night, and theres Andrew Lincoln playing the guy who marries Cathy instead of Heathcliff! It was the Masterpiece version (Downton Abbey people) . He did a lot of angsty expressions and face rubbing like on the walking dead

Was a clip at the end for sense and sensibility, and I could have sworn I saw David Morrisey, but it could have been my imagination after looking at Lincoln and the moors and imagining walkers stumbling across it for 2 hours..... S&S wasnt on hulu for me to check.


Edit: Ok I cheated and Googled him and Im not crazy! It was him on the S&S ad!

Dale was in the Green Mile as one of the prison guards.

For ages it was killing me where I knew Daryl from! It was one of those 'I'll remember don't look it up things!' finally hit me he was one of the boondocks!


Makes the show all the more epic :D

The girl that plays Sasha (I think) - the one thats with Tyreese - was also in The Good Wife as Alicia's assistant or something. As well as Milton who plays Alicia's brother in it

He's a perennial Frank Darabont cast member, he's also the prosecuting lawyer in the opening of The Shawshank Redemption, the Mayor in The Majestic and one of the townsfolk in The Mist.

Really? I must check that out again. One of my favourite movies.

Yep, one of the five (along with Andrea) in the car at the end, IIRC.

I was watching an old ep of Bones the other day, and Caesar (latino guy who sort of bonded with Daryl at the talks) played a vato-turned-family-man.

Junco Partner

Shane was in an early episode of HIMYM. The episode where Ted keeps throwing house parties so Robin will come. He was the stoner/hippie/surfer dude. Carlos i think he was called.

A role in which he played, you guessed it, a racist hick. :pac:

You won't see Rooker in a lot of things but he's an excellent character actor. He reminds me of Michael Wincott in a lot of ways.

I think he gets better with age, he has a great "look" - sort of tough and stringy, age is actually improving how he looks on screen.

He has the racist hick character down alright

Melissa McBride (Carol) in The Mist as well, she's the woman looking for her children at the start. She's in quite a few of Darabont's films too.

Cheers, I knew I,d seen him some where else about that time frame
(long time ago):)

He's been in a tonne of movies.

I saw him interviewed recently and they didn't mention the walking dead once... granted he's got an impression CV but talking about 10-15 year old movies and nothing about the walking dead was pretty strange.

ron jambo

Rumour has it, he,s not to happy about when and how he finished.

T-K-O

Nor am I. He was an interesting character his presence would have added something to the group

Shane was also in a sitcom called "The Class" - didn't last long - only 1 season I think.

Michael Rooker (Merle) also done the voice acting, and his likeness used for Harper in Call of Duty: Black Ops 2
