We're not done The Walking Dead TV news today and have a big casting announcement for fans of the comic book series. It has just been revealed that Christian Serratos (Twilight, pictured below) has joined the cast and will play Rosita Espinosa.

With her first appearance in issue #53, comic book fans should be excited by the news because Rick's group meets up with Rosita Espinosa and a couple of other characters that play a big part in upcoming events. *Minor Spoilers Ahead*

According to Deadline, who broke the news, Rosita is a recurring Season 4 character with the option to become a Season 5 regular. While the TV show does differ quite a bit from the comic book series, we have a feeling that Abraham and Eugene's appearance isn't too far behind, even if it doesn't happen until Season 5. We weren't sure how many seasons Rick's group would stay at the prison, but we could see them back on the road by the end of Season 4.

Of course, we'll let readers know as soon as more details become official. The Walking Dead Season 4 begins on October 13th and you can catch up on our recent news by visiting the links below.
