Fear The Walking Dead: John Glover Teases Intense Villainous Role! The New Villain Is Going To Be Insane!

There’s a new villain coming to Fear The Walking Dead, and he is being played by John Glover. You may remember Glover from such roles as Lionel Luthor on Smallville! Has he done other stuff? Absolutely! But that’s where I know him from! According to Glover, this villain will bring “a lot of twists and turns and surprise” during the rest of season 6. He will be portraying Teddy, the founder of The Holding. The Holding is a self-sufficient underground community and the people there are responsible for all the graffiti we’ve seen this season. The episode that’s coming out this Sunday will see some of our group investigate The Holding. I strongly suspect this won’t be ending well for anybody, but maybe I’m wrong?

“I have a four-episode arc. I’m sworn to secrecy, I can’t talk about it,” Glover told his Smallville son Michael Rosenbaum on the actor’s Inside of You podcast. “I got the job before [the pandemic] happened. So David Letterman, my agent, called and said, ‘They’re still probably gonna do it, but we’ve got to find out when it’s gonna be safe enough.’ They started up again in October, so I was [in Austin, Texas] from March 15 to October something or other. I finished [filming] a couple of weeks ago. It was fun,” Glover said. “They were very generous and so welcoming and really wonderful people. They made me feel happy to be there.”

Glover has actually never watched the show, because of the violence on it, but he’s at least heard of it! He’ll be acting alongside June Dorie (series regular Jenna Elfman), true believer Riley (series newcomer Nick Stahl), and an as-yet-unrevealed character portrayed by fellow series newcomer Keith Carradine (Dexter, Madam Secretary).

“I’m sworn to secrecy about who I am and everything,” Glover said, revealing only that he’s proud of the long beard he grew out for the role. “I just let everything grow and then when it happened, I sent them some pictures of myself, the way I looked, and they went, ‘Yes!’ And they got very excited, which made me feel good.”

When asked what he liked most about appearing on Fear The Walking Dead he said,”Working. Working on a really interesting role. It’s got a lot of twists and turns and surprise in it.”
