From The Walking Dead to ABC’s A Million Little Things, Chandler Riggs is making his mark.
Chandler Riggs has traded in his cowboy hat for a show that is all about the feels. It has been about a year since he left The Walking Dead, and it’s exciting to know that he will be gracing our television screens once again. Coming up later this season on ABC’s A Million Little Things, Riggs will joining for at least two episodes.
He will be playing a character named PJ that will cross paths with Romany Malco’s character, Rome. Based on a report from Deadline, these two characters will bond over their mental health and the fact that they both have faced hardships in life. It’s gearing up to be a very emotional story arc that fans can get excited about.
Chandler Riggs made this announcement on Twitter when he mentioned that he had almost been unemployed for a year, but now is excited to be joining the ABC series (which he did not name in his tweet).

right now i'm sitting on the set of season one of an incredible tv show for my first day of work.
life changes really drastically really quickly
It is an exciting time to join A Million Little Things given its overall premise and the fact that it now airs on Thursday nights, right after Grey’s Anatomy. If there ever was a primetime slot, that would be it. And after premiering its first Thursday night episode, the show went on to get series-high ratings.
We are excited at the prospect of Chandler Riggs returning to television, albeit temporarily. Given that he will be interacting with the character of Rome is certainly a plus considering Rome is one of the series’ best characters.
