Daryl Dixon (Norman Reedus) isn’t going to stop killing walkers any time soon. Not only did AMC reveal The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon – The Book of Carol trailer at San Diego Comic-Con, they also announced the series has been renewed for Season 3. And it sure sounds like not only does Carol (Melissa McBride) find Daryl… They’re going to Spain.
“I couldn’t be more thrilled to announce a third season and to be working side by side with the brilliant Melissa McBride,” Reedus said via a press release provided to Comic Book Club. Season two is some of my favorite storytelling of this series. Watching Melissa shine along with our brilliant cast and crew has been one of my fondest memories playing this character. I hope you enjoy it as much as we did making it and we can’t wait to keep the story going.”
Added McBride, “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!”
Season 3 will begin filming next month in Madrid, with “extensive location shooting planned in the Galicia, Aragon, Catalonia and Valencia regions.”
“France made Daryl and Carol’s story into an epic poem with what we found there,” said Scott M. Gimple, chief content officer for The Walking Dead Universe. “What’s to come in Spain may even surpass it — and we’re so damn happy to bring the audience more of the Terrific Two alongside new compelling characters, in a yet unseen, beautiful, horrific corner of their broken world.”
While that’s exciting and all, don’t forget that Season 2 will premiere on AMC and AMC+ on September 29. You can check out a mix of new and previously released photos, the synopsis for Season 2 — titled The Book of Carol — and watch the trailer, below.
The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon – The Book of Carol picks up where season one left off, following fan-favorite characters Daryl Dixon (Reedus) and Carol Peletier (McBride). They both confront old demons while she fights to find her friend and he struggles with his decision to stay in France, causing tension at the Nest. Additionally, Genet (Anne Charrier)’s movement builds momentum, setting Pouvoir on a violent collision course with the Union of Hope in the fight for France’s future.
