10 Questions With Fear The Walking Dead Star Kim Dickens
7. Are You Familiar With 'The Walking Dead'?
I hadn't watched it before I got the part. I just hadnt gotten to it, but I certainly knew how popular and how successful it was. I got closer to the audition and I panicked. I asked the producers what I should watch to give me a feel of what they want me to do, and the answer I got back was not to watch anything because my character wouldnt know what the apocalypse would look like.
So I held off diving into it, then I got the part and finished filming the whole first season of Fear because I agreed it was best not to let my character and myself know what it all looked like. And since then in my time off, Ive been watching a lot of it. I think its fantastic.
