Walking Dead: Daryl & Carol's Story Isn't Over, Says Norman Reedus
The Walking Dead’s Norman Reedus says Daryl Dixon and Carol Peletier’s story isn’t over after the long-running zombie drama airs its final episode. Based on Robert Kirkman’s comic series, The Walking Dead has diverged from its source material in a variety of ways. The most popular changes are the addition of Daryl (Reedus) and the expansion of Carol’s (Melissa McBride) character. Not only did the pair become major allies of Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln), but their prospective tryst turned into a close friendship. Together, they lead The Walking Dead’s cast in its eleventh and final season.
Although the flagship series is coming to an end, The Walking Dead universe will live on with a handful of spin-offs. In addition to Fear The Walking Dead and The Walking Dead: The World Beyond, a series featuring Maggie Rhee (Lauren Cohan) and Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan), Isle of the Dead, as well as an anthology, Tales of the Walking Dead, have been announced. On top of that, The Walking Dead’s Rick and Michonne (Danai Gurira) are getting their own spin-off—which will replace the planned Rick Grimes movie trilogy—and Daryl is heading to Europe in his series. The latter has yet to receive a release date/title, and it’s unclear if/how Carol will factor into its story.
