## Resource

In this conversation, actor and musician Shawn Andrews steps into the spotlight to discuss his role as Reverend Anthony, one of the newly introduced Dead Squad in The Walking Dead: Dead City Season 3, Episode 5. Known to many for his cult‑favorite performance as Kevin “Pickford” Pickford in Dazed and Confused, Andrews brings a volatile spark to the Dead City universe — one that blends eccentricity, and a surprising philosophical edge.
