“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."
Series stars Norman Reedus, Melissa McBride, and Louis Puech Scigliuzzi, executive producer Greg Nicotero, and showrunner David Zabel appeared at the panel in Hall H to share the footage and announce the new series.
Dan McDermott, president of entertainment, AMC Studios for AMC Networks said in a statement: "We are so proud of these shows and incredibly grateful for the way this new chapter in The Walking Dead Universe has been embraced by the fans.
“Sending Daryl, and then Carol, to France was such an inspired and visually striking move for this franchise, a chance to do something truly different. We can't wait to continue the travels of this iconic duo with a third season produced and set in Spain, another beautiful country with a passionate TWD fanbase that is already buzzing with anticipation."
In a statement following the Comic-Con panel, Reedus said: "I couldn't be more thrilled to announce a third season and to be working side by side with the brilliant Melissa McBride. Season two is some of my favorite storytelling of this series.
“Watching Melissa shine along with our brilliant cast and crew has been one of my fondest memories playing this character. I hope you enjoy it as much as we did making it and we can't wait to keep the story going."
McBride added: "I'm really appreciating the new challenges for Daryl and Carol being so far from all they've ever known... what it means for them, what it brings for each of them, apart and together.
“There's still so much ahead to unpack in France for the coming season two, and a breathtaking finale. And now Spain! I already know that David Zabel's storytelling is making the most of all that is so beautiful and unique to Spain. We start shooting there in just a few weeks... such excitement looking forward!"
Gimple said: "France made Daryl and Carol's story into an epic poem with what we found there. What's to come in Spain may even surpass it — and we're so damn happy to bring the audience more of the Terrific Two alongside new compelling characters, in a yet unseen, beautiful, horrific corner of their broken world."
The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon Season 2 is set to premiere on AMC on September 29th.
