The Walking Dead spin-off will feature new mutated zombies and it will completely change the rules

A new "The Walking Dead" spin-off centred on Daryl Dixon's character promises to stir up the franchise with a few unexpected changes. As well as moving the action to France, executive producer Greg Nicotero has unveiled a mysterious detail - the introduction of a new kind of zombie that could "rewrite all the rules".

Here's What We Know

"These zombies have mutated to a point where if they touch or bite you or their blood gets on you, it burns you significantly" - Nicotero recently shared with TV Insider, adding, "Dixon takes us back to the beginning of what the DNA of The Walking Dead started as, which is a man on a mission".

Thanks to "The Walking Dead: World Beyond," we know that the virus originates from France, so according to Nicotero's comments, the country could be home to even more diverse forms of walkers - and seemingly even more dangerous.

Starring Clémence Poésy and Norman Reedus in the lead roles.

"The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon" sends the main character to Paris, where he is tasked by a mysterious group of nuns to deliver a boy named Laurent across the country. The boy, as it turns out, could be the key to the "rebirth of humanity."

When We Can Expect It

It premieres on 10 September on AMC and AMC+.
