The Walking Dead star Norman Reedus spent the break between seasons eight and nine worried his Daryl Dixon would kill Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) after a last-minute change inserted him into a scene with a conspiring Maggie (Lauren Cohan) and Jesus (Tom Payne).
?At the end of last season, that very last scene that we shot, it looks like Jesus, Maggie and Daryl are going to turn on Rick ? I wasn?t in that scene [at first],? Reedus told TheWrap.
?Maybe an hour before that, they?re, ?we want to put you in this scene.? And I was, ?what are you talking about? I can?t go against Rick. What are you talking about?? And they were, ?trust us, it?ll play out later.? And I was, ?wait, wait, what?? So I spent my whole hiatus thinking, ?oh my god, I?m going to kill Rick, or he?s going to kill me.??
Season Eight ended with Hilltop leader Maggie telling right-hand man Jesus they were going to show Rick ?he was wrong? for deciding defeated Savior leader Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) should be spared and jailed, earning Daryl?s agreement.
That angle is now playing out in Season Nine, as the relationship between Rick and Daryl is heavily strained and will soon boil over into a physical confrontation in Rick?s penultimate episode.
