Walking Dead Season 7 Adds to Two New Characters Have Been Revealed!

The Walking Dead's seventh season is edging ever closer and naturally details are being divulged slowly.

The Walking Dead is reportedly getting two additional characters during Season 7 of AMC's post-apocalyptic zombie drama.

The first character, named Naomi, is described as "grandmotherly" and - having lost many of the people she loved - is "willing to do whatever it takes."Character number two is called Jennie, a "sunny-side-up kinda teenager" who possesses similarities to former Walking Dead character Beth Greene (Emily Kinney).

It's important to note that AMC has yet to confirm the addition of these two characters. That said, Ausiello's sources have nearly always proven to be right in the past, so we'll likely see both Jennie and Naomi in Season 7.
