The Walking Dead star Margot Bingham and True Blood's Dale Dickey are two of four new cast members confirmed for Taylor Sheridan's Yellowstone spin-off series.

The anthology series, titled Lawmen: Bass Reeves, has announced the two will both appear in recurring roles alongside Yellowstone alumni Mo Brings Plenty and The Chi star Tosin Morohunfola.

The four will join actor David Oyelowo, who executive produces and stars in the spin-off as lead character Bass Reeves.

According to Deadline, Bingham will play Sara Jumper, who's being teased as "a black Seminole Native American whom Bass will owe a debt of gratitude toward". Meanwhile, Dickey is set to portray a no-nonsense woman by the name of Widow Dolliver.

Filming for the new Paramount+ series is currently underway in Texas. But whilst production has started, the show is still yet to receive an official release date.

Lawmen: Bass Reeves will tell the story of the legendary outlaw Reeves who solidified his place in American history after capturing over 3,000 dangerous criminals during the post-Reconstruction era, serving as a federal peace officer in the Indian Territory.

Yellowstone airs on Paramount+.
