NEW YORK, Oct. 19 (UPI) -- Norman Reedus says bringing The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon to Spain for Season 3 reminded him of the energy and excitement he experienced when he first began working in the zombie-apocalypse franchise more than 15 years ago.
"There's a real passion to the Spanish people. They like to hug. They like to talk. They like to talk like family, 'Come eat with us.' It's been really fun working with them," Reedus, 56, recently told reporters at New York Comic Con.
"When you speak to a Spanish crew member, they want to keep going. They want to talk. France, it is a little bit less. New York, not at all," he laughed.
"People love to go to work every day. They talk about what we're doing. They're excited about what we've done. It feels a lot like the earliest earlier seasons of the flagship show. It feels like that. I've been chasing that ever since. It's like lightning in a bottle."
Reedus was also awestruck by the locations he has gotten to film in since Daryl was kidnapped from the United States and brought first to France, then to England and, eventually, Spain.
