Norman Reedus ‘suffered a concussion’ on ‘The Walking Dead’ set as the series was filming its final episode
Norman Reedus suffered an injury on the set of “The Walking Dead” as the series is wrapping its final episode.
In an email statement to Insider, Reedus’ spokesperson, Jeffrey Chassen, confirmed that the actor “suffered a concussion on set.”
“He is recovering well and will return to work soon. Thank you to everyone for their concern,” Chassen told Insider via email.
Deadline first reported the news.
An AMC representative confirmed to Insider that, as a result of Reedus’ injury, filming on “The Walking Dead” will be pushed back a few days.
Chassen confirmed that the accident occurred on March 11, though it’s unclear whether or not the injury occurred while Reedus was filming.
Filming on the series finale, which will air later this year, started Monday, March 7, according to a photo shared on Instagram by season 11 cinematographer, Duane Charles Manwiller.
On Tuesday, Reedus canceled appearances at an upcoming convention, Fandemic Tour, where the actor was scheduled to appear alongside previous and current “TWD” stars.
The convention will take place from March 18 through March 20 in Atlanta, Georgia, not far from where the AMC series films.
The actor, who has played Daryl Dixon on AMC’s apocalyptic drama since season one, quickly became a breakout fan-favorite on the series. He’s set to star in an untitled “TWD” spinoff featuring costar Melissa McBride that will air on AMC and AMC+ next year.
