Jimmi Simpson, known for his roles in shows like *It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia* and *Westworld*, will be joining *The Walking Dead: Dead City* for its third season as a main character named Dillard. Details about Dillard are currently being kept secret. This role follows Simpson’s recent appearances in *Dark Matter* (2024) and the new *Twisted Metal* series on Peacock.

The third season follows Maggie and Negan as they work together to create a successful community in post-apocalyptic Manhattan.
