Actor Jayson Warner Smith will always be remembered by fans of The Walking Dead as the Savior named Gavin. Level-headed and ruthless when necessary but also diplomatic, Gavin could have made a great ally to Rick and crew after the fall of the Saviors, but he was killed by Henry in season 8. Smith recently posted about a new project he is involved in, You’re Killing Me.
The horror thriller is directed by Beth Hanna and Jerren Lauder and was written by Walker Hare and Brad Martocello. The film was released in select theaters and on VOD on April 7, 2023. Check it out on AppleTV and other streamers.
The story follows Eden, a high school girl looking for a recommendation for an elite university. She attends the coveted “Heaven or Hell” party hoping to get said recommendation from the influential parents of a classmate. Things quickly go south, and she ends up fighting for her life.
