The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon has the opportunity to have one of the most awaited reunions in The Walking Dead Universe. One between Andrew Lincoln's Rick Grimes and Norman Reedus' Daryl Dixon, the show's protagonist.
The two are among the most important characters in the original show and share a brotherly bond. While fans were waiting to see their reunion in The Ones Who Live, they were left disappointed.

The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon Season 2 is over, and the pair have not reunited in the show's finale. While there is no confirmation that Andrew Lincoln will meet Norman Reedus again, there is much speculation that they will meet at the finale of Daryl Dixon.
Starting as enemies in the first season of The Walking Dead, the two quickly formed an unlikely friendship. That soon became a brotherly bond, especially after Dixon's best friend, Shane's death.
Under Rick's leadership, Dixon became a better human and a father figure, and the two faced many challenges together. They were last seen together six years ago on The Walking Dead, and fans long to see them again.
Here is everything about a potential Dixon-Grimes reunion on The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon.
Will Daryl Dixon and Rick Grimes reunite in The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon?
Speculation about the pair's reunion is expected in the spin-off series since Daryl arrived in France because of Rick. After he learns that Rick is alive in the finale of The Walking Dead, he begins an adventure to find his long-lost brother and bring him home.
However, the spin-off does not once name-drop Rick Grimes, even though he shares a deep relationship with its protagonist. Considering Daryl lands in France to find Rick, their reunion is expected. But as seen in the finale of The Ones Who Live, Michonne eventually brings her husband back home and reunites him with his family.
Since Rick is already home, the only possibility of a reunion between him and Daryl remains in The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon finale, where Rick might welcome Daryl and Carol home.
But this is long overdue, as Daryl has many more adventures and possible seasons to cover in his spin-off before he journeys back to his home and Rick.
Reddit fan theories on Daryl-Rick reunion in The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon
Since Daryl and Rick shared such a special bond in The Walking Dead, fans are eager to see the two reunite on-screen together. Here are some fan theories on Reddit about their possible reunion in the spin-off-
''I just want Daryl and Carol to get back to the US...Daryl collapses from exhaustion...so Carol goes ahead to get help..leading to Rick opening the gates of alexandria and Daryl bawling his eyes out while they hug it out.'' u/Gseph
It seems like this user has planned a spin-off finale with an emotional reunion for the pair, which is very befitting given their history of separation. But since Season 3 is set in Spain, Daryl and Carol making their way back to the US is far-fetched.
''I’m convinced there will be an “avengers” single season of TWD where Maggie & Negan, Daryl & Carol, Rick & Michonne, and hell throw in Morgan too - all come together for a grand finale.'' u/Gremlinsworth
Another fan hopes to see another season of the show where all the major surviving characters assemble, Avengers-style. While this seems ideal, the possibility of this happening is very slim.
''...just knowing he knows he’s alive is enough. I really don’t want a big group hug reunion Gimple seems to be planning. That’s not how this world franchise has ever really worked'' u/silicatemineral
While many fans are rooting for a reunion, some like these characters evolving on their own without the presence of others. Moreover, TWD Universe is not a sitcom where you might expect teary-eyed reunions.
''But Daryl/Carol and Rick/Michonne have their own journeys to go through right now...Both shows are said to have 3 seasons, but the next spin-off could be the Grand Crossover that they are teasing for everyone to reunite'' u/Universalring25
Since Rick and Daryl both have their spin-off shows now, some fans speculate that the two will reunite in a grand crossover between the two.
The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon Season 2 concluded on November 3, 2024. The show is renewed for Season 3.
