Spoilers and News for The Walking Dead Season 4

What's up walking dead fans? We all were shocked by season threes ending, and we all want any kind of spoiler info we can get right? I sure do! I don't have a complete summary, yet, but I have found minor spoiler info and character promotions for the season that I'd like to share with you all.

New character: Bob Stookey

    TVGuide.com confirmed that a new character will appear in season four, one that the comic and especially novel readers will be quite familiar with. His name is Bob Stookey, played by Lawrence Gilliard, Jr., former star on "The Wire". In the comics and novel, Bob was a loner who ended up traveling with Lilly Caul, Josh Hamilton, Megan Lafferty, and Scott Moon to eventually end up in the town of Woodbury. He also was a former army medic and the drunk of Woodbury. Bob also ended up saving The Governors life after Michonne got payback for terrible deeds done to her. But since the show has completely gone apart from the comics we can assume his relationship with The Governor may differ completely. Also its very possible that Bob was one of the very people on the bus in the season finale. He could even run into The Governor and Martinez on their road trip to who knows where.

Guest stars promoted!

   Chad Coleman (Tyreese), Sonequa Martin-Green (Sasha) and Emily Kinney (Beth) will no longer be guest stars as they have been promoted to series regulars. Lawrence Gilliard Jr. (above) will also be a regular to the series. 

   Emily has been a guest star since season two, while Chad and Sonequa first appeared in the midseason finale in the third season. We can assume that Beth will get more lines and character development in season four, while Tyreese will more than likely help lead the group. Sasha and Bob's role are somewhat unpredictable at this time, although we should see a fair amount of them moving forward. 
Also, David Morrissey will resume his role as The Governor. With that being said we can only assume that Shumpert and Caeser Martinez will also appear in season four.

   Scott Wilson (Hershel), although has not been renewed as a series regular, despite being a respected character since season two. Melissa McBride (Carol) has yet to be upped to a series regular in spite of appearing in every season. If any new news on any character promotions are found they will be posted as soon as possible.
