Light as a Feather follows a group of teenage girls who must deal with supernatural fallout stemming from an innocent game of “Light as a Feather, Stiff as a Board” when they start dying off in the exact way predicted. The series was based on Zoe Aarsen’s book of the same name and was adapted for television by R. Lee Fleming Jr, who also served as showrunner. He will continue as showrunner for season 2 and will also write and executive produce. Season one starred a cast including Liana Liberato, Haley Ramm, Ajiona Alexus, Brianne Tju, Peyton List, Jordan Rodrigues, Dylan Sprayberry, and Brent Rivera

Nacon confirmed the news on her Twitter account, introducing her new character named Sammi.

Nacon’s first acting credit was 2013’s Psychology of Secrets and in 2015 she booked the role of Enid on The Walking Dead. Her character grew from a newcomer no one was sure they could trust to one of the community doctors who often took on a leadership role. While it felt like there was still some story to tell, her character met an untimely death on the latest season of the series. She also appeared on  T@gged from 2016-2108.
