The Walking Dead universe is constantly growing with the debut of the spin-off series, The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon, in 2023. This new series follows Norman Reedus’ character, Daryl Dixon, as he navigates the aftermath of the original show. Daryl soon meets Isabelle, a French nun with a wild past, and the two share a surprising kiss that has fans buzzing.
In a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, Reedus explained that the romantic moment between Daryl and Isabelle was simply an experiment. He clarified that it was not meant to hint at a long-term romantic storyline for his character. Instead, the kiss was a way to explore new aspects of Daryl’s character and motivations.
According to Reedus, Daryl’s decision to kiss Isabelle stems from a desire to re-evaluate his life choices. The character, who has spent his life running and fighting, questions if he should have settled down and experienced more intimate moments. This intimate moment between Daryl and Isabelle serves to deepen Daryl’s character development and could potentially lead to a burgeoning romance as Isabelle joins Daryl on his journey.
Fans can expect to learn more about the fate of these characters in upcoming episodes of Season 2.
