AMC Networks has named its first Spanish cast for the third season of The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon, currently shooting in Spain.
Eduardo Noriega, Oscar Jaenada and Alexandra Masangkay will be series regulars, as they join Candela Saitta and Hugo Arbues in recurring roles. Their casting follows the world-weary Georgia zombie apocalypse survivor-turned-Europe backpacker Daryl Dixon, played by Norman Reedus, rambling over to Spain for season three of the successful The Walking Dead spinoff.
That’s a switch from the show’s first and upcoming second seasons, which are set in France. Noriega has had film roles in Thesis, Open Your Eyes, The Wolf, The Devil’s Backbone and Vantage Point.
Jaenada has credits that include Camarón: When Flamenco Became Legend and Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. Masangkay made her film debut with 1898: The Last of the Philippines and The Platform and also appeared in Código Emperador and most recently Valley of Shadows.
The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon is in production in Madrid and other locations in Spain offering a post-apocalyptic backdrop. In the latest season, Daryl Dixon and Carol Peletier continue trying to somehow return home and to the ones they love, even as the path back takes them farther astray, through distant lands with ever-changing and unfamiliar conditions as they witness the impact of the Walker apocalypse.
The second season for the Walking Dead franchise spin-off will bow Sept. 29 in the U.S. on AMC and AMC+.
The third season will bow in 2025 and is executive produced by Scott M. Gimple, showrunner David Zabel, Reedus, McBride, Greg Nicotero, Brian Bockrath, Angela Kang, Jason Richman, Dan Percival and Steve Squillante. Silvia Aráez and Jesús de la Vega from Ánima Stillking also boarded as executive producers this season.
