AMC launched a new trailer for The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon season 2, subtitled The Book of Carol, during the Sunday premiere of Giancarlo Esposito's crime drama Parish. Notably, this release came right after the finale of the Rick and Michonne spinoff series.

In the upcoming The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon season 2, viewers are presented with a narrative that follows the separate but interconnected journeys of Daryl and Carol. The teaser saw Daryl, played by Norman Reedus, leading a resistance movement in France in an action-packed fashion. All of this happens while Daryl grapples with his past and the mystery of how he got there.

The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon season 2 emphasizes Daryl's struggle to form new connections in a foreign land. Meanwhile, Carol, portrayed by Melissa McBride, embarks on a poignant and emotional quest to locate Daryl, starting from Maine and extending to Europe.

As the title of the spinoff suggests, this season will also focus more on Carol's character. Moreover, her journey will likely reveal a deep-seated bond with Daryl, indicating he is the only family she has left.

Furthermore, The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon season 2 preview teases potential reunions and intricate plot developments as it showcases scenes of intense action and emotional depth. Alongside the lead duo, the series features Clémence Poésy, Louis Puech Scigliuzzi, Laika Blanc Francard, Anne Charrier, Romain Levi, and Eriq Ebouaney.

The production also boasts a skilled team that includes showrunner David Zabel and executive producers Scott M. Gimple and Greg Nicotero. It is worth noting that The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon The Book of Carol season 2 diverges from the initial plan of a Daryl & Carol spinoff. This is because it focuses on their individual stories and their impact on each other.

Where did The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon season 1 leave?

At the end of Season 1 of The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon, the storyline reaches a climactic moment. Below is the list of key events that occurred during the season finale:

1) Laurent is forced to kill Quinn: Along with his allies from the Union, Daryl works to free Isabelle and Laurent from the custody of the Pouvoir. During their escape, they encounter the reanimated body of Quinn, Laurent's father. In a poignant scene, Laurent is forced to kill Quinn. This act symbolically renounces him as his father.

2) Isabelle's revelation: As the group flees towards Mont Saint-Michel, Isabelle reveals to Daryl that she exaggerated Laurent's "Messianic" powers to gain support for the Union. This revelation coincides with an incident where Laurent seemingly displays an uncanny ability to persuade, thereby influencing a Pouvoir agent to betray his comrades.

3) Daryl decides to return to America: After reaching Mont Saint-Michel, Daryl decides to return to America despite Isabelle's objections. On his way to board a boat, he hears Laurent calling him and faces a dilemma when walkers are attracted to the noise. This plot point notably ends on a cliffhanger.

4) Carol Peletier appears in the final moments of the season: Carol, a longstanding character from The Walking Dead, is in pursuit of a drifter riding Daryl's motorcycle in Maine. After a confrontation, she discovers that the drifter bought the motorcycle from others further up the road. This sets up Carol's quest to find Daryl.

Notably, the season ends with Daryl facing a choice between returning to his own family or staying with Laurent and Isabelle in France, while Carol's journey in America hints at a future reunion in Europe.
