Hey, Walking Dead fans! If you're as pumped as we are about The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon Season 3, you're in for a wild ride. After the heart-pounding finale of Season 2, subtitled The Book of Carol , the show is taking us on a fresh adventure with our favorite crossbow-wielding survivor, Daryl Dixon, and his ride-or-die bestie, Carol Peletier. Let's dive into everything we know so far about the release date, cast updates, and what's coming next in this epic spin-off. Buckle up, because this is gonna be good! Release Date: When Can We Watch Daryl Dixon Season 3?
Mark your calendars, because The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon Season 3 is set to premiere on September 7, 2025, on AMC and AMC+ at 9 p.m. ET/PT. This keeps the show's tradition of September releases, following Season 1 in 2023 and Season 2 in 2024. Cast Updates: Who's Joining Daryl and Carol?
Norman Reedus is back as the rugged, zombie-slaying Daryl Dixon, and Melissa McBride returns as the badass Carol Peletier. Their chemistry was the heart of Season 2, and we are thrilled they're both leading the charge from the start this time. After logistical issues kept Carol out of Season 1, it's awesome to see her back in full force.
But here's where it gets exciting: Season 3 is bringing in some fresh faces, especially since the show's moving to Spain. A big name joining the cast is Stephen Merchant, known for The Office and Logan .
The show's also welcoming a talented lineup of Spanish actors as series regulars, reflecting the new setting: Eduardo Noriega ( The Devil's Backbone ) as Antonio
Óscar Jaenada ( Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides ) as Fede
Alexandra Masangkay ( The Platform )
Plus, we've got recurring roles from up-and-comers like Candela Saitta ( Máxima ) and Hugo Arbués ( Through My Window ). Other new additions include Greta Fernández, Gonzalo Bouza, Hada Nieto, Yassmine Othman, Cuco Usín, Irina Björklund, Armando Buika, Javier Taboada, Boré Buika, Anna Gras, Claudio Bandini, Pedro Bachura, and Elena Sándell. This diverse cast promises a mix of allies, enemies, and maybe a few surprises.
Sadly, we're saying goodbye to some familiar faces from the France arc, like Clémence Poésy (Isabelle) and Anne Charrier (Genet), since the story's shifting to Spain. It's bittersweet, but we are excited to meet the new characters shaping Daryl and Carol's journey. What to Expect: A New Adventure in Spain
Season 3 is expected to pick up after the emotional and action-packed events of Season 2, where Daryl and Carol fought their way through France. Now, they're on the move again, heading from the Chunnel (that tunnel connecting France to England) to Spain, with a quick stop in London. The official logline teases that they're 'continuing their journey to somehow return home and to the ones they love.' But, as always, the road to home is never easy in The Walking Dead universe.
The shift to Spain is a big deal. Showrunner David Zabel and executive producer Steve Squillante have hyped up Spain's unique vibe, from its rich culture to its diverse landscapes. Expect to see Daryl and Carol trekking through places like Madrid, Granada, and Belchite, facing new walkers and human threats. The teaser trailer (check it out on AMC's socials!) shows them navigating rugged terrain, with Daryl hinting at being 'ready to give up' before finding new purpose.
The season's 'road show' format keeps things fresh, with Daryl and Carol constantly on the move. This isn't just about surviving walkers; it's about their bond and their desperate hope to get back to the US. Will they finally make it home? Or will Spain throw them some curveballs that complicate their plans? We are betting on the latter, because, you know, it's The Walking Dead .
