Fans thrilled
Michael C. Hall returns with “Dexter” sequel
Good news for fans of the thriller series "Dexter": lead actor Michael C. Hall is coming back. There is to be a sequel series called "Dexter: Resurrection".
This has now been announced by the streaming service Paramount+ together with the US provider Showtime. Hall will play the lead role in the series, which is set in the present day.
"We are thrilled that the talented Michael C. Hall will reprise his iconic role as Dexter Morgan in Showtime's most successful series of all time," Showtime CEO Chris McCarthy is quoted as saying. According to the industry publication "Variety", "Dexter: Resurrection" is set to start in summer 2025.
Prequel to "Dexter: Original Sin"
The sequel project is new. Until now, all that was known about the "Dexter" cosmos was that the prequel "Dexter: Original Sin" would soon be released. Patrick Gibson ("Shadow and Bone") plays the lead role of Dexter Morgan in the new ten-part thriller series.
Christian Slater as Dexter's adoptive father
Golden Globe winner Christian Slater ("Mr. Robot") portrays Harry Morgan, Dexter's adoptive father and homicide investigator. Molly Brown ("Senior Year") plays Dexter's younger sister Debra Morgan. Patrick Dempsey, James Martinez, Christina Milian, Alex Shimizu and Reno Wilson can also be seen in other roles in the prequel.
"Dexter: Original Sin" is set in Miami in 1991 - 15 years before the series "Dexter", which was a worldwide hit for Showtime in the noughties. Back then, Michael C. Hall played the main character Dexter Morgan. A first sequel followed in 2021: "Dexter: New Blood".
Long-time fans and a new generation
TV executive McCarthy outlines the grand plan behind the two series in the press release: "While "Dexter: Resurrection" will appeal to millions of long-time fans, "Dexter: Original Sin" will introduce a whole new generation of viewers to this cult series by starting from scratch, which will certainly satisfy existing viewers."
