The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon Season 3 Teaser: New Cast, Plot Twists and First Look Revealed

AMC has announced that The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon season 3 will premiere on Sunday, September 7, at 9 PM ET/PT on AMC and AMC+. This new season will pick up after the events of The Book of Carol, which wrapped up with Daryl and Carol reuniting in France.

Now, the story moves to Spain, where season 3 was also filmed. Showrunner David Zabel shared with The Hollywood Reporter, “We loved the reinvigoration we experienced going to France, and we wanted to continue doing that. On a story level, the characters should not settle down. It should be a road show.”

Season 3 continues the emotional and physical journey of Daryl Dixon (Norman Reedus) and Carol Peletier (Melissa McBride) as they try to return home. But instead of getting closer, their journey takes them farther away, pushing them into unfamiliar and dangerous territories across Europe.

AMC’s official logline for The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon season 3 reads: “As they struggle to find their way back, the path takes them farther astray, leading them through distant lands with ever-changing and unfamiliar conditions as they witness the various effects of the Walker apocalypse.”

Zabel stated that Daryl and Carol’s nomadic journey is key to the show’s narrative: “They have to keep moving to return home. At the end of season two, they’re going somewhere. It’s not a direct line. The idea is to keep the characters struggling and striving.”
