‘Fear the Walking Dead’ star Frank Dillane's comeback: Actor to return with ‘Urchin’ after hiatus

Frank Dillane, who is popular for playing drug addict Nick Clark in ‘Fear the Walking Dead’, is set to mark his comeback with his next big project. The star is playing the role of Mike, an individual who is living on the edge of society, fending for himself and just trying to survive in a world that works against him. In a recent interview, the actor revealed all about how his hiatus was and how he transitioned back onto the big screen. While in conversation with The Guardian, the actor talked about how, after the fame of ‘Fear the Walking Dead’, he went on a two-year hiatus after he returned to Berlin. He revealed that while the fame from the spin-off series was high, he had the chance to take “this role and that role.”While talking about his time on the show, he shared, “Nick was a junkie, and my work on the show was all about understanding him. Then I’d be asked all these questions that trivialized what I’d done. I was told to talk differently, dress differently, and attend media training.”Now he is set to officially return to the big screen with Harris Dickinson’s directorial debut ‘Urchin.’ In the upcoming film, Dillane plays the role of Mike, a Londoner who has been living on the streets. During the interview, the actor revealed that “Early on, I grew facial hair for the film, but then I shaved it all off. It spoilt the innocent effect when I looked like a cartel boss.”He talked about how challenging the role was, and that the scenes of him begging in the movies were shot on busy streets. He revealed that, “People ignore you when you approach them. It makes you feel like you’re not human.”'Urchin' is slated to release on October 3, 2025.
