There’s a new US TV series with Cliff Curtis in a lead role too. Can’t remember the name off-hand. He’s Temuera Morrison’s nephew (Bobba Fett). Both have a pretty extensive list of credits. There are several other Maori actors on US TV, usually playing Hispanic/Latino roles. I recognize them when they appear, but I’m a shocker at names at the best of times.

Yes I got the title wrong. “Fear the Walking Dead”. My bad. Must have had Romero on my mind….

Yes the actor in Fear The Walking Dead is Cliff Curtis a Maori whose American dialect is getting better. I have a bit of a crush on Cliff. He was also in Once Were Warrors and Whale Rider.

I believe that one of the male actors in “Fear The Living Dead” may be a real Māori .
