As a gamer with a penchant for the undead apocalypse and a soft spot for well-crafted narratives, I must say that the addition of Stephen Merchant to The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon season 3 is nothing short of exhilarating. Known for his work on the original British version of The Office, a series that has been an essential part of my binge-watching escapades, Merchant’s involvement in this spinoff promises to bring a unique flavor to the table.
The TV series “The Walking Dead,” specifically focusing on character Daryl Dixon in its third season, is welcoming Stephen Merchant. AMC confirmed that the well-known British actor and comedian, who co-created the original version of “The Office,” has joined the cast of “The Walking Dead” spinoff starring Norman Reedus and Melissa McBride. This spinoff began production on its third season in Spain, but details about Merchant’s character are being kept secret.
The award-winning writer, comedian, and actor has been added to the cast that was already announced, which includes Spanish performers such as Eduardo Noriega (known for ‘The Devil’s Backbone’ and ‘Vantage Point’), Íscar Joana (famous for ‘Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides’ and ‘Hernán’), and Alexandra Masangkay (recognized in ‘Días mejores’ and ‘Valley of Shadows’). Alongside this newcomer, the upcoming season will also feature Candela Saitta (‘Máxima y Mínima, el último primer día’) and Hugo Arbu$ (renowned from the ‘Through My Window’ trilogy and ‘Past Lies’) in recurring roles.
The merchant is most recognized for his partnership with Ricky Gervais, particularly on the BBC version of “The Office” which sparked a worldwide phenomenon. Additionally, he worked closely with Gervais in creating and acting alongside him in the animated series “The Ricky Gervais Show,” the sitcom “Extras,” and the travel documentary series “An Idiot Abroad,” starring Karl Pilkington.
Lately, Merchant has been seen playing Stephen Port in the BBC miniseries “Four Lives” and Greg Dillard on the comedy crime-thriller series “The Outlaws,” which he co-created with Elgin James. His acting credits span a variety of films such as “Hot Fuzz,” “Logan,” an X-Men spinoff, the action-thriller “The Girl in the Spider’s Web,” “Jojo Rabbit,” “Locked Down,” and “Fighting with My Family,” where he also wrote and directed, starring Florence Pugh and Dwayne Johnson.
In the third season of Daryl Dixon’s storyline, the action is set in Madrid, Spain, with extensive filming scheduled across several regions including Galicia, Aragon, Catalonia, and Valencia. Each region offers a fresh and distinct setting for the post-apocalyptic universe, as stated by AMC.
David Zabel, the series creator and showrunner, expressed his enthusiasm about returning to set with Norman, Melissa, and an exceptional cast, as well as a skilled local crew in Spain. Their knowledge and artistic perspective are crucial in bringing the breathtaking Spanish landscapes to life and enriching the series with a culturally intriguing layer. In 2025, viewers can anticipate watching the reunion of these cherished characters in season two and witnessing the continuation of ‘Caryl’s storyline here in Spain on AMC and AMC+.
The latest installments of season 2, known as “The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon — The Carol Chronicles“, are now showing every Sunday on AMC and AMC+. Make sure to keep up with ComicBook/TWD and the ComicBook TWD page on Facebook for further updates about the world of “The Walking Dead“.
