Task Actor Joins The Walking Dead: Dead City Season 3 as Series Regular

The Walking Dead: Dead City isn't done filling out its Season 3 cast. A recognizable actor who was just seen in the HBO limited series Task has joined the ensemble in a series regular role.

According to Deadline, Raúl Castillo will appear in The Walking Dead: Dead City Season 3 in the series regular role of Luis. Unfortunately, that's all that fans know about the new character, as AMC shared no further details about Luis or how his path will cross that of Maggie (Lauren Cohan) and/or Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan). Castillo's casting comes almost three weeks after Jimmy Simpson boarded

The Walking Dead sequel spinoff as Dillard. Lucifer alum Aimee Garcia has also joined the main cast as Renata, a charming woman and natural leader whose charisma and overwhelming optimism make it easy for her to win people over.

Created by Eli Jorné, Dead City follows fan-favorite characters Maggie and Negan as they travel into a post-apocalyptic Manhattan, which has been cut off from the mainland for a long time. In the recently concluded Season 2, Maggie and Negan find themselves trapped on opposite sides in the growing war for control of Manhattan. As their paths intertwine, they come to see that the way out for both is more complicated and harrowing than they ever imagined.

Filming on the third season began in September 2025 in Boston, Massachusetts, with Seth Hoffman at the helm as showrunner. Dead City is one of two Walking Dead series currently in production for AMC, with the other being

Daryl Dixon. The latter, currently airing its third season, is filming its fourth and final season, which will consist of eight episodes and conclude the story of Norman Reedus' titular fan-favorite

The Walking Dead character. While unconfirmed at this time, with both shows already in production on their next seasons, Dead City and Daryl Dixon will likely return on AMC in 2026.

💍 Vanderpump Rules Alum Katie Maloney Shocks Fans by Officially Getting Engaged to Boyfriend Nick Martin in a Secret Ceremony in West Hollywood

In a twist no one saw coming,

Vanderpump Rules alum Katie Maloney has stunned fans by announcing her engagement to boyfriend Nick Martin — and the reveal came straight from what insiders are calling a “secret ceremony”
in West Hollywood this weekend.

According to multiple sources, the intimate event took place at a private rooftop lounge surrounded by close friends and a few familiar Bravo faces. Cameras weren’t rolling (for once), but eyewitnesses say it had

all the makings of a reality TV moment — from the tears to the champagne to Katie’s jaw-dropping diamond ring.

After years of heartbreak and public ups and downs following her divorce from ex-husband

Tom Schwartz, fans are calling this Katie’s “redemption era.” A source close to the reality star told Bravo Buzz, “Katie didn’t want another over-the-top reality engagement. She wanted something private, meaningful, and real — and Nick gave her that.”

Nick Martin, a Los Angeles-based entrepreneur who reportedly met Katie through mutual friends in the restaurant scene, has kept a relatively low profile compared to her Bravo-famous exes. But insiders say the chemistry between them is undeniable.

“They’re a perfect match — he grounds her, she challenges him, and they both have that sarcastic humor that just works,” another insider spilled.

Of course, Bravo Nation immediately exploded once the engagement news hit social media. Within hours, hashtags like

#KatieMaloneyEngaged and #VanderpumpRulesWedding began trending, with fans expressing both shock and excitement. One fan posted, “Katie finally found her peace — and hopefully someone who actually listens to her this time!”

Another joked, “Can’t wait for Schwartz’s reaction episode.”

Even fellow castmates weighed in, with Ariana Madix reportedly commenting a string of heart emojis under Katie’s soft-launch engagement photo — a black-and-white snap of two hands intertwined, diamond front and center.

Still, not everyone’s convinced this is the end of the drama. Some fans speculate Bravo might find a way to feature the engagement in The Valley or even tease a crossover event for future seasons.

“Once a Pump Rule, always a Pump Rule,” one source teased.

From SUR to self-love and now to “I do,” Katie Maloney has officially turned the page — proving that in the world of Bravo, there’s nothing more shocking than a happy ending.
