AMC has done a great job building The Walking Dead universe with the main series and six spinoffs so far. The original series used the comic created by Robert Kirkman, Tony Moore, and Charlie Adlard as source material, and while it often stayed true to the source, it also expanded the story, adding new storylines and characters throughout its 12-year run.

In 2024, AMC released The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live, a six-part series that expanded the stories of Rick (Andrew Lincoln) and Michonne (Danai Gurira), who left the main series in seasons 9 and 10, respectively. This series was wildly popular, as fans longed to see these characters return.

There won’t be a new series in 2024, but in the summer, The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon will premiere season 2 of the series, which is subtitled The Book of Carol. The second season will premiere at the 2024 Tribeca Film Festival, at which time the official AMC and AMC+ premeire date could also be announced.

The second season of Daryl Dixon will feature Daryl (Norman Reedus) in his adventures in France as he works alongside the Union of Hope against the Power of the Living. The first season chronicled his journey to France and the people he met while planning his return home. The season ended with Daryl being made to choose between beginning his journey home or staying in France to help his new-found friends. The teasers for the upcoming season show Daryl choosing to remain in France.

This season will also feature Carol’s (Melissa McBride) search for her best friend Daryl, whose last communication with her told her he would return to the Commonwealth in a week. He was unable to return as promised as he was thrown onto a ship bound for France.

The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon – The Book of Carol will air in the summer of 2024 on AMC and AMC+ and has been renewed for a third season.

The Walking Dead: Dead City began filming in April 2024 and will likely see a premiere of its second season in 2025.

The Walking Dead’s CCO, Scott M. Gimple, has previously stated that there are many more ideas for spinoffs within TWDU, but the current focus is on Daryl Dixon, Dead City, and The Ones Who Live. He added that if things go well for these series, which they have, more could be coming soon.
