“That’s a wrap,” he wrote. “11 seasons 12 years. Never been so beat up and it was an absolute blast. Thank you to all of you that took this ride with us and what a ride it was ❤️”
Along with the message, Reedus, who stars as Daryl Dixon on the Zombie drama, shared a video of himself and costar Melissa McBride singing a song they wrote about their characters.
