"David Morrissey has dropped more hints about his role on The Walking Dead. The English actor will play the Governor in the zombie drama&amp;#039;s third season and told Entertainment Weekly that the TV version of the character has &amp;quot;more complexity&amp;quot; than the comic book original. &amp;quot;He&amp;#039;s very fully-formed when you meet him in the comic books, and he&amp;#039;s not in this yet,&amp;quot; Morrissey explained. The 48-year-old star revealed that much of the Governor&amp;#039;s comic book backstory will be dramatised on screen for the TV series. &amp;quot;We... meet the Governor earlier in his journey,&amp;quot; he confirmed. &amp;quot;The things that make him the way he is happen to him on screen. We see them happening.&amp;quot; He continued: &amp;quot;I like that - that gives him more complexity, and more motivation and reason.&amp;quot; The Walking Dead showrunner Glen Mazzara has also described the Governor as a &amp;quot;complex&amp;quot; villain, calling Morrissey&amp;#039;s take on the tyrant &amp;quot;multi-layered&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;nuanced&amp;quot;. The Walking Dead returns to FX in the UK and AMC in the US in October. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
