Veronica Mars Grad Heads to The CW’s Zombie Dramedy.
Veronica Mars fans will be in for a special treat as Percy Daggs III has signed on to guest star in The CW’s highly anticipated zombie dramedy, iZombie.
TVGuide, who first broke the news, reports that Daggs will appear in an episode of the new series, reuniting him with Veronica Mars producers Rob Thomas and Diane Ruggiero.
Via TVGuide: Daggs will play Sean Taylor, a wealthy genius who lives in Seattle. When he gets a job offer in Silicon Valley, he plans to move his wife Penny and 6-year-old stepdaughter Anna there, but then finds himself in a tough custody battle with Anna’s father, Everett. But the problem is seemingly solved when Everett is killed.
