‘The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon’ Renewed for Fourth and Final Season at AMC
Daryl Dixon’s journey to find his way back home has an endpoint.
AMC announced Friday at Comic-Con that it has renewed The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon for a fourth and final season. Production is slated to begin in the coming days in Madrid and other locations in Spain. Series leads Norman Reedus and Melissa McBride will continue their roles in the eight-episode final run.
“Across two extraordinary series spanning almost two decades, Norman and Melissa have given life to two of the most iconic characters in the history of television. Daryl and Carol have taken fans on an unforgettable and intensely human journey of challenge, survival, hope and friendship, and the response from fans, from the very first moments of The Walking Dead, has been remarkable,” said Dan McDermott, president of entertainment and AMC Studios for AMC Networks. “We can’t wait to share the upcoming third season of Daryl this fall and to begin production on this fourth and final season in Spain.”
Reedus and McBride were in San Diego for the Comic-Con session alongside showrunner David Zabel and executive producers Scott M. Gimple (chief creative officer for the TWD franchise) and Greg Nicotero.
Season three of Daryl Dixon, meanwhile, is set to premiere Sept. 7 and will follow Reedus’ title character and McBride’s Carol to Spain. Eduardo Noriega, Óscar Jaenada and Alexandra Masangkay also star.
“Daryl Dixon has been an incredible journey. I thank each and every fan who has joined us on this ride,” Reedus said in a statement. “It’s been a privilege to build this story for these characters, and we have so much gratitude for how it’s been embraced. Your love and support have made every moment worth it. This finale isn’t just an ending; it’s a celebration of what we’ve all shared together. Keep carrying that love forward — Daryl’s journey is far from over.”
Added McBride, “It has been the thrill of a lifetime to shoot this part of Daryl and Carol’s adventure together in Europe, and I keep coming back for more of these two characters. There is still so much story left to tell and so much for the fans to look forward to. I’m going to revel in the moments as they come and am excited for the fans to see what we have been working on in these incredible locations.”
Zabel, Gimple, Nicotero, Reedus and McBride are executive producers of The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon, along with Brian Bockrath, Angela Kang, Jason Richman, Dan Percival and Steve Squillante.
