- Norman Reedus is getting his own "The Walking Dead" spin-off centered around his character, Daryl.
- On "Jimmy Kimmel Live!", Reedus confirmed Daryl will wind up in Paris against his freewill.
The Daryl Dixon "Walking Dead" spin-off may have a very straight-forward title.
During an appearance Tuesday evening on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!", Reedus teased the name of his upcoming "TWD" spin-off, hinting that it could possibly be pretty simplistic.
"I'm pushing for a title, but I don't think it has an official title yet," Reedus said when asked if the Daryl spin-off has a name yet, adding, "There's a title that I want."
After Kimmel tried to get a hint at the title out of "TWD" star, Reedus relented a tiny bit.
"I'm hoping for a certain title," Reedus said, adding, "I mean let's just think about it. She-Hulk is She-Hulk. Spider-Man, Spider-Man. Batman's Batman. So, why not this be: 'Boom. Boom'? You know what I mean?" Reedus said using filler words for the audience to fill in the blanks with their own imagination.
"You see where I'm going with that?" Reedus asked.
Kimmel replied, "I got you. Just call it, Daryl."
Reedus shushed the host before he said anything else.
Kimmel may not be far off in his guess.
When "TWD" returned for its final block of eight episodes this past Sunday, an ad on AMC teased the upcoming untitled Daryl spin-off, which referred to it simply as "Daryl Dixon."
It's possible the show could be called: "The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon."
Reedus is one of several "The Walking Dead" characters getting a spinoff after the flagship series ends this fall on AMC. Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Danai Gurira are also getting their own shows to continue "TWD" universe. (You can view all of the spinoffs here.)
When asked what the series will entail, Reedus confirmed that fans can expect the show to take place overseas in Paris, France.
How will Daryl get there?
Of the Paris location, Reedus said, "I get put there. I don't go there on my free will."
He added: "I've been out there location scouting and casting and everything for the last couple months and it's epic. It's castles and moats of castles. It's just crazy."
"We'll like destroy the Louvre and stuff. It's gonna be nuts," Reedus said of the iconic art museum.
When Kimmel asked if that was true, Reedus waved his hands, saying, "I didn't say that either."
Reedus said he's been living in France for three months and is expecting to be there for the next year as they begin shooting the series.
