The Walking Dead‘s Season 8 premiere is titled ” Mercy,” but mercy is the last thing Daryl Dixon has on his mind, says Norman Reedus. All out war is on, and Daryl and Rick are leading the battle against Negan, portrayed by Jeffrey Dean Morgan, and Negan’s followers, the Saviors.
Norman Reedus told Entertainment Weekly Daryl Dixon definitely doesn’t have mercy on his mind lately, even if “Mercy” is the title of The Walking Dead’s Season 8 premiere.
“He’s just got revenge on his mind this year. He’s ready to kill everybody, no matter what the group says, no matter what anybody says. He’s just like, ‘Nah, screw it. Everybody dies.’ He’s very focused on revenge.”
