Andrew Lincoln Wants To Play Daryl Dixon

The Walking Dead has one of the most fierce followings on television, and the actors who play the characters on the show are usually never short of fanfare no matter where they go.


Andrew Lincoln is probably the second most popular character next to Daryl, but that doesn’t mean he wishes he could switch roles every now and then.

On a Walking Dead panel this week, Andrew Lincoln joked around that he wished he could play either Hershel or Daryl on The Walking Dead.

Andrew Lincoln said if he could play any other role, he’d play Herschel, “because he’s cool as s–t,” before joking he’d also want to play Daryl Dixon, ribbing Norman Reedus for not having to do very much owing to fewer lines for the brooding character


Of course, he was build for the role of Rick, but that doesn’t mean it wouldn’t be interesting to see him as Daryl. In fact, he might just want to assume a Daryl role on the show, as it might add depth to his character and give him more of an edge to work with moving forward with the series.
