AMC is preparing for the expansion of “The Walking Dead” universe with the highly anticipated spinoff series, “The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon,” set to premiere in Fall 2023. Fans had initially hoped for a reunion between Daryl Dixon (played by Norman Reedus) and Carol Peletier (played by Melissa McBride) on the small screen. However, plans changed when it was announced that McBride would no longer be part of the spinoff. Reedus supported McBride’s decision, explaining that she wanted to take some time off. Now, it seems like circumstances have shifted, and fans may indeed get their wish.
“The Walking Dead” alum Jeffrey Dean Morgan, who stars as Negan in his own spinoff show, “The Walking Dead: Dead City,” recently tweeted a behind-the-scenes photo of Reedus and McBride. In the tweet, Morgan remorsefully admitted to talking negatively about Reedus when they believed McBride wouldn’t be a part of the show. He expressed excitement about seeing the two actors together again, suggesting that the reunion had been in the works for a while.
Morgan’s caption serves as a defense against the backlash Reedus faced due to McBride’s absence from the spinoff. It also hints at Carol joining Daryl in France in some undisclosed capacity. While there hasn’t been an official confirmation of this news, the prospect of the two characters reuniting on screen is undoubtedly exciting. Additionally, the confirmed cast members for the spinoff include French actress Clémence Poésy, Anne Charrier, and Adam Nagaitis, adding to the intrigue.
The spinoff series, set to explore the continued bond between Carol and Daryl, will take the characters on a different path. Daryl finds himself washed up on the shores of France, far away from his homeland, with no explanation of how he ended up there. Reedus has suggested that this series will be a “reset” for the character, urging viewers to have realistic expectations. “The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon” is created and produced by Angela Kang, with Scott M. Gimple, Daniel Percival, and David Zabel serving as executive producers.
“The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon” is scheduled to premiere in 2023, adding another exciting chapter to the beloved franchise. Stay tuned for more updates and check out the teaser below.
