TWD's James Allen McCune Forgot About His Audition Before Getting The Part

Redditor u/wheatfields was curious about what the audition process was like for James Allen McCune. "The processes for casting can get pretty nuts," the actor replied. "Everyone does something different, and every character is cast differently. For Lauren [Cohan] they casted her through a series of auditions and interviews and eventually they signed her on. For me there was one tape that was sent to the casting directors and three weeks later I got a call that I got the part. It was so unusual."

At the same time, this discrepancy does make sense. Very few characters introduced in Season 2 live long enough to see Season 3 — including Jimmy. Maggie, however, is a massive part of the "Walking Dead" franchise. In fact, she's even getting her own spin-off (along with Jeffrey Dean Morgan's Negan): "The Walking Dead: Dead City."
