The 2011 event saw many fan favorites in attendance, including Andrew Lincoln, Jon Bernthal, Sarah Wayne Callies, Laurie Holden, Norman Reedus, Steven Yeun, Jeffrey DeMunn, director and executive producer Frank Darabont, ep Gale Anne Hurd, ep Robert Kirkman and SPX master Greg Nicotero.
Season 2 would see some new faces with Scott Wilson as Hershel Greene, Lauren Cohan as his daughter Maggie, Emily Kinney as his other daughter Beth, Pruitt Taylor Vince will playing the Greene family farm hand, Otis, Jane McNeill as Patricia, Otis’ wife and James Allen McCune as Jimmy, Beth’s boyfriend. This season would also see additional guest appearances by Michael Zegen as Randall and Michael Raymond-James as Dave.
