The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon is "the closest to a standalone show" the franchise will ever get, says director and executive producer Greg Nicotero. In a new interview with Entertainment Weekly, the prosthetics whizz explained that the main goal of the series isn't just to see Norman Reedus's Daryl explore exotic locations but to navigate a "wholly different world."
During the chat, Nicotero promised that the six-part drama "is definitely not more of the same." He continued: "Our show introduces new characters, new themes, and is an exciting extension of the genre that will delight people who love this kind of storytelling and crave more.
