A September premiere date has been announced for the latest Walking Dead spinoff series.

Set in France, The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon follows Daryl Dixon as he explores the ravaged but not yet fallen country, even if he doesn’t seem to know how he got there.

Why he’s there could be explained by the post credit scene after season 2 of World Beyond, where we discovered the virus behind the zombie apocalypse was created by a group of scientists in France.

Even though this is the fifth spinoff in the franchise, director and EP Greg Nicotero says Daryl Dixon is the closest to a “standalone show” since the original.

The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon premieres on AMC September 10 and will be available in Australia on Stan from September 11.
