By Adam Carlson
There will be a lot of new faces when AMC’s Fear The Walking Dead returns for the second half of season 4, including Aaron Stanford of 12 Monkeys.
Fear The Walking Dead told a massive story in the first half of season 4, showing the reunion of the characters separated after the dam explosion and how they worked hard to protect their baseball diamond from a group called The Vultures.
The survivors experienced some major losses during the first eight episodes of the season, but it appears as though the show is loading up on talent heading into the second part of the AMC zombie drama’s fourth season.
