The Walking Dead and Death Stranding actor Norman Reedus will receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on September 27

Norman Reedus, who is best known for The Walking Dead series, where he played Daryl Dixon, and in the gaming industry gave the voice and appearance of the protagonist Sam Bridges in Hideo Kojima's Death Stranding, will receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on September 27.

Here's What We Know

The ceremony will be broadcast live on walkoffame.com. The most interesting thing is that Reedus' star will be placed next to the star of director George Romero, who in 1968 directed Night of the Living Dead. It was this film that set the course for the development of zombie films for many years. But Romero also influenced the gaming industry. When the author of The Last of Us, Neil Druckmann, was studying at the university in 2004, one of his professors was familiar with Romero and gave his students the task to come up with an idea for a game based on the Night of the Living Dead universe. Romero personally watched the projects. Druckmann had an idea to create a game where a man with health problems was protected by a child, but George did not like this idea at all. And in 2013, the world saw The Last of Us and recognized it as the best game of the decade.
