‘The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon’ is renewed for third season on AMC

AMC announced it ordered a third season of ‘The Walking Dead’ spin-off series, Daryl Dixon, starring Norman Reedus, Melissa McBride and and Louis Puech Scigliuzzi.

According to Deadline, production on the third season will be based in Madrid, with location shooting planned in the Galicia, Aragon, Catalonia, and Valencia regions. Season 3 will continue to follow Carol (Melissa McBride) and Daryl (Norman Reedus) as they resume their journey home to their loved ones. The treacherous journey amidst a Walker apocalypse challenges them further at every turn.

Dan McDermott, president of entertainment and AMC Studios for AMC Networks, said in a statement: “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.”

Reedus added: “I couldn’t be more thrilled to announce a third season and to be working side by side with the brilliant Melissa McBride. Season 2 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.”

McBride shared: “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!”
