Norman Reedus, star of The Strolling Useless: Daryl Dixon, has addressed the potential of a reunion between Daryl and one of many franchise’s most beloved characters: Rick Grimes. At this 12 months’s San Diego Comedian-Con, it was confirmed that The Strolling Useless: Daryl Dixon is slated to finish after season 4, with Daryl and Carol’s (Melissa McBride) European journey set to proceed within the subsequent two seasons.
With Daryl Dixon seasons 3 and 4 each confirmed to be going down in Spain, it stays to be seen how, or even when, Daryl and Carol will discover their approach residence. As such, although followers could also be holding out hope for a reunion between Daryl and The Strolling Useless’s main man, Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln), there is a robust likelihood it will not occur. Reedus defined why he does not suppose it might be a good suggestion throughout an SDCC interview with IGN:
“We’re very aware of [theories Daryl Dixon will end with a reunion]. There’s so many ideas thrown around from fans for all these things. I think sometimes it’s better to do the opposite of what people expect, so they’re surprised. If we just read what fans wanted all the time and gave them what they wanted, then you would know the outcome of everything. So, sometimes I think it’s better to tell your story. People can like it, argue, hate it, whatever, but you don’t want to just read Twitter, you know what I’m saying?”
What Does This Imply For The Strolling Useless: Daryl Dixon?
Is There Room For A Reunion Inside The Strolling Useless Franchise?
Since Daryl’s story on The Strolling Useless’s flagship present ended with him going to seek for Rick and his associate Michonne (Danai Gurira) earlier than he washed up in France, it stands to motive that the spinoff would finish with a reunion between the three characters.
Nonetheless, if, as Reedus suggests, that is not the case, there’s nonetheless an opportunity their reunion may occur someplace else down the road as The Strolling Useless franchise continues to evolve. On the Strolling Useless: Daryl Dixon panel at SDCC, Reedus hinted that, whereas Daryl Dixon will finish with season 4, bringing Daryl and Carol’s Spanish journey to a detailed, Daryl’s story will not be over but:
“It will allow us to complete the story of Daryl and Carol in Spain. It’ll complete this part of the journey. It’s the last season of this iteration of this show.”
If Daryl Dixon ends with Carol and Daryl’s secure return residence, a unique spinoff or “iteration of this show” may choose up the place he left off, reuniting him with Rick and the remainder of his household, who discovered one another once more and loved a uncommon, joyful ending within the remaining episode of The Strolling Useless: The Ones Who Dwell.

There are other very important characters in the universe that are still wandering around and alive, that I think it might be quite exciting to have them breathe the same air and see how long they survive together. But it’s a difficult one. It would have to be like this, a really exciting story.”

The way forward for The Strolling Useless is at the moment unclear. As soon as Daryl Dixon ends after season 4, the one different mainline present at the moment confirmed and left on the slate is Maggie (Lauren Cohan) and Negan’s (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) The Strolling Useless: Useless Metropolis, which has been renewed for season 3. Will that be the place the franchise ends, although?
The Strolling Useless is likely one of the longest-running, sprawling, and most profitable TV franchises on the market. It deserves a correct, emotional, and cathartic ending.
The Strolling Useless is likely one of the longest-running, sprawling, and most profitable TV franchises on the market.
