As the Walker apocalypse rages on, our beloved duo Daryl and Carol are taking on a new journey in an unexpected place – Europe. In a thrilling turn of events, The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon season 3 trailer reveals an intense trek across England and into the sun-soaked terrain of Spain. Here’s a breakdown of what to expect from this fresh chapter in the Walking Dead universe.
A Journey Across Europe – And a Heart-Pounding Reunion
The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon season 2 finale left fans on edge as Carol (Melissa McBride) finally reunited with Daryl (Norman Reedus) in France. However, with only one seat left on a plane piloted by Ash (Manish Dayal) to safety, Daryl made the heroic choice to stay behind, opting for a treacherous journey back home on foot. Not wanting to leave her closest friend, Carol decides to brave the journey alongside him, setting up an unforgettable season 3 that will see the two of them face new challenges on foreign soil.
What the Season 3 Trailer Reveals
The season 3 trailer delivers several enticing scenes that have already stirred up excitement:
- London Landmarks and New Allies: Daryl and Carol are shown navigating London, with their path led by a new guide (played by Stephen Merchant).
- A Transatlantic Mission: Hints of a journey across the Atlantic suggest that their trek back to America is as daunting as it is determined.
- Spanish Landscapes as Post-Apocalyptic Terrain: From the lush regions of Galicia to the stark Tabernas Desert, the trailer reveals Spain as a hauntingly beautiful backdrop, making it the perfect setting for the unfolding chaos and suspense.
As the trailer showcases, Daryl, looking weary and worn, mutters, “Thought it was all over.” Carol, mirroring the sentiment, replies, “You and me both.” These words hint at their resilience and a shared hope that keeps them moving forward, no matter the hardships.
The Setting: Spain’s Role in Daryl and Carol’s Next Chapter
AMC has confirmed that this season will be shot on location in Spain, giving fans a truly unique visual experience. The network describes Spain’s landscapes as a refreshing backdrop that enhances the story’s post-apocalyptic theme.
