The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon Season 3: AMC Spin-Off Gets Early Renewal

The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon is here to stay. According to Deadline, the spin-off series has been renewed for a third season even before the premiere of its second season, set for September. The new season will see Carol and Daryl navigating their European adventures.

In the upcoming season two, starring Norman Reedus, Melissa McBride, Clémence Poésy, Louis Puech Scigliuzzi, Laika Blanc Francard, Anne Charrier, Romain Levi, and Eriq Ebouaney, Carol will be on a quest to find Daryl in France. By the third season, the duo will be reunited and attempting to make their way back home while stranded in Spain.

McBride recently reflected on the evolving dynamics between the two beloved characters:

“I’m really appreciating the new challenges for Daryl and Carol being so far from all they’ve ever known… what it means for them, what it brings for each of them, apart and together. There’s still so much ahead to unpack in France for the coming season two, and a breathtaking finale. And now Spain! I already know that David Zabel’s storytelling is making the most of all that is so beautiful and unique to Spain. We start shooting there in just a few weeks… such excitement looking forward!”

Dan McDermott, president of entertainment and AMC Studios for AMC Networks, also shared his thoughts on the renewal:

“We are so proud of these shows and incredibly grateful for the way this new chapter in The Walking Dead Universe has been embraced by the fans.

Sending Daryl, and then Carol, to France was such an inspired and visually striking move for this franchise, a chance to do something truly different. We can’t wait to continue the travels of this iconic duo with a third season produced and set in Spain, another beautiful country with a passionate TWD fanbase that is already buzzing with anticipation.”

The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon returns on September 29th on AMC.
