Norman Reedus is joined by Clémence Poésy as they film The Walking Dead spin-off in Paris

Norman Reedus and Clémence Poésy were pictured filming The Walking Dead spin-off, titled Daryl Dixon, in Paris on Monday.

Actor Reedus, 54, who plays the titular character, wrapped up in a dirty navy coat and black trousers, while slinging a bag over his shoulder by its brown leather strap.

Clemence, who is joining the franchise as religious group member Isabelle, had been dressed in a brown jacket and khaki jeans.

She covered her blonde tresses with a tan hood, which coordinated with her boots, while carrying a sword-like weapon on her back.

The pair were joined by a small group of other cast members, and Reedus was later seen travelling through the set on a horse-and-cart.

Norman set Twitter ablaze in October when he announced the title of his upcoming The Walking Dead spin-off.

He included an eerie promotional image of the Eiffel Tower seen from below and filtered through an ominous green and black color scheme.

Norman achieved worldwide fame on The Walking Dead, which followed Americans trying desperately to survive the zombie apocalypse.

Scott M Gimple, who was the showrunner for five of the middle seasons of the original show, revealed in August that the upcoming spin-off will be set in France.

‘Daryl is a fish out of water to start with,’ said Scott, who also serves as the chief content officer of the Walking Dead franchise.

‘If Daryl finds himself with new people, he’s a fish out of water. In France, in a country that’s going through the apocalypse, [it’s] an entirely different thing.’

During a Talking Dead special quoted by Total Film, Scott said Daryl ‘finds himself having to reinvent himself again, having to find himself again, and also, not being with – probably – the only people in the world he’s comfortable with.’

The 11th and final season of The Walking Dead has been split into three instalments, the last of which premiered this past Sunday.

On November 20, the show will air its finale Rest In Peace on AMC, bringing an end to a series that has been running since 2010.

Daryl is a tough-nosed type whose practical skills – including hunting, knife-fighting and tracking – enable him to eke out an existence amid the zombie takeover.

By the final stretch of the show Daryl, a loyal adjutant of Andrew Lincoln’s lead character Rick Grimes, has lost his entire family.
