"The Walking Dead's" Daryl Dixon might just have a new target to aim his crossbow at -- newly zombified talk show host Anderson Cooper.

Actually, Cooper isn't planning on a "Walking Dead" cameo, like the one former Pittsburgh Steeler Hines Ward just had. But on Friday's "Anderson Live," the host gave his audience a glimpse at what he'd look like as a member of the undead army while chatting with Norman Reedus, the man behind the expert zombie extinguisher.

"I love that the baby blues are still sparkling," Cooper said of his undead self. "And the hair is still perfect."

As for Reedus, he brought his trusty weapon of choice with him for the interview.

"It's hard not to look cool holding a crossbow," he said.

Of course, that's a point he proves on a regular basis on the hit AMC horror.

Later on "Live," Cooper gave the always-cool crossbow a shot by shooting Reedus, sans sharp arrow.

"The Walking Dead" airs Sundays at 9 p.m. on AMC.
