The Walking Dead’s Daryl Spin-Off Beefs Up Its Cast With Five New Names Announced – Looper

As previously reported by Variety, the spin-off — tentatively titled “The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon” — will follow the chopper-loving survivor after he wakes up on the coast of France with no memory of how he got there.

As such a setup dictates, Norman Reedus will be flanked by some international talent. According to Variety, he’ll be joined by European stars Anne Charrier, Eriq Ebouaney, Laika Blanc Fratard, Romain Levi, and Louis Puech Scigliuzzi. Per Variety, those five performers are joining the cast of Daryl Dixon’s “The Walking Dead” spin-off as regulars. While they likely won’t look too familiar to fans outside of Europe, Ebouaney has actually logged work in a few major Hollywood productions, including Ridley Scott’s “Kingdom of Heaven,” the video game adaptation “Hitman,” and the Kevin Costner actioner “3 Days to Kill.” 

As of this writing, few specifics are know about their characters, with Variety noting simply that they will be called Genet, Fallou, Sylvie, Codron, and Laurent in that order. Thankfully, the wait to find out who, and what they bring to Daryl’s story won’t be too long. “The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon” is reportedly now filming in Paris, and is expected to hit AMC sometime late in 2023.
