Actor and comedian Yvette Nicole Brown has replaced Chris Hardwick as the moderator for the "The Walking Dead" and the "Fear the Walking Dead" panels at the San Diego Comic-Con.
The decision to replace long-time moderator Chris Hardwick comes after he was accused of sexually assaulting his ex-girlfriend, Chloe Dykstra, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Brown, best known for the "Talking Dead" and "Mom", will now moderate both the panels for on July 20 in Hall H.
In June this year, Dykstra alleged that Hardwick had sexually and emotionally abused her. In response to the accusations, Hardwick said that the three-year-relationship "was not perfect" but the allegations are false.
Since news of the accusations broke, AMC scrapped their upcoming show "Talking With Chris Hardwick" and announced that Hardwick would not moderate any AMC or BBC panels at the San Diego Comic-Con.
Meanwhile, Hardwick's wife Lydia Hearst and another ex-girlfriend, actor Jacinda Barrett, have come out in his support.
