Acting in an action-packed series comes at a risk.
The Walking Dead star, Norman Reedus recently had an accident on-set that left him with a concussion according to Variety. While he is currently in recovery, he plans on returning to work as soon as possible. But production the final episodes of the 11th and final season will, unfortunately, be delayed.
“The stakes will be high: we’ll see more zombies; tons of action; intriguing new stories; never-before-seen locations and our groups together in one community for the first time, trying to rebuild what the Whisperers took from them,” showrunner Angela Kang said of the last chapter of the series.
"Daryl's always looking out for somebody, or many people at the same time. He's never doing anything for himself, ever," he told Entertainment Tonight.
The show's co-creator, Scott Gimple, also shared some insight about its final season and the legacy the show is leaving behind, in a press release in 2020.
"It's been 10 years 'gone bye;' what lies ahead are two more to come and stories and stories to tell beyond that," he said.
"We have a lot of thrilling story left to tell on TWD, and then, this end will be a beginning of more Walking Dead – brand new stories and characters, familiar faces and places, new voices, and new mythologies."
"This will be a grand finale that will lead to new premieres. Evolution is upon us. The Walking Dead lives," he concluded.
On top of that, there are two more spinoffs currently in production.
Variety released a statement that revealed that Normal Reedus suffered a concussion and is now in recovery until he is well enough to go back to work.
“He is recovering well and will return to work soon. Thank you to everyone for their concern.”
No other details have been shared about how the accident occurred. But here's wishing Norman Reedus a very speedy recovery!
