The Walking dead cast
Why is it you don't see any of the actors from the walking dead in movies on the big screen?Norman Reedus, Andrew Lincoln and Melissa McBride did awesome acting, even Lennie James (Morgan) was awesome on the show, on the show and the only character I've seen move on to make movies on the big screen is Jeffrey Dean Morgan[ Negen)

Is Hollywood overlooking good actors and actresses?

Are the royalties from the show lucrative?

Some of them made enough money from the Walking Dead, to retire.

It's not always the case, but hollywood is often snobby towards TV actors.

Danai Gurira is apart of Marvel in the Black Panthar movies and was in Avengers and Steven Yeun was in the Jordan Peele movie Nope

Norman Reedus was in Death Stranding. Lauren Cohan (Maggie) was in some movies too. Rick Grimes is getting his own spin-off movie also.

You forgot to mention Steve Ogg. All he got to be was a cartoon character.

I see Norman Reedus in movies rarely and Lauren Cohan...I guess TWD just made them plenty of money...Don't need anything else really...I see Jeffrey Dean Morgan in a lot of movies...

They ran the show into the ground, and the actors got old.

The smart ones quit hollywood while they are ahead.

Andrew Lincoln 2
Jon Bernthal 3
Steven Yeun 2
David Morrissey 3
Chad L. Coleman 2
Sarah Wayne Callies 2
Laurie Holden 0
Lauren Cohen 0
Melissa McBride 0
Danai Gurira 0
Emily Kinney 0

Trend of women most sterilized by Hollywood confirmed.

Besides Norman Reedus, all of them have been in a lot of movies.

They are probably tapped for their projects on the Walking Dead. Many are still doing the show.

They are making other Walking Dead shows...

Whether or not they got the chance for "royalties" is something else, though. A lot of them are now "names" in that series, so if any more spin-offs happen, the "survivors" likely just have a continuing role opportunity with a guaranteed paycheck and hospitality cart... :)

Reedus was in a number of movies in the late 90s/early 2000s.

Andrew Lincoln is one of my favorite actors ever, just judging from his performance in TWD. So good!
