For eight seasons and 96 episodes, from 2006 to 2013, the series Dexter ran on Showtime, telling the story of Dexter Morgan, a blood spatter analyst for the Miami Metro Police Department who is also a vigilante serial killer. Clyde Phillips was showrunner on Dexter for the first four seasons, and in 2021 he and Showtime brought us the revival series Dexter: New Blood… which, for a time, also seemed to be the end of it all. But that’s not the case. Showtime has tasked Phillips with continue to build up the Dexter franchise, with the prequel series Dexter: Original Sin premiering last month and a New Blood follow-up called Dexter: Resurrection heading for a June premiere. Filming on Dexter: Resurrection is now underway, and Michael C. Hall, who played Dexter Morgan in the original series and Dexter: New Blood, and also provides the in-character narration for Dexter: Original Sin, is back...

No official synopsis...

One episode of Dexter: Original Sin has been released per week on both Paramount+ with Showtime and Showtime since the day of its premiere. However, the tables have turned on Jan. 17 for what should have been the release of episode 7 this week.

To sustain viewers’ excitement and Dexter’s joy of killing, Dexter: Original Sin has some other plans. Unfortunately, episode 7 of the show, named “The Big Bad Body Problem” is not airing this Friday on Paramount+ with Showtime or this Sunday on Showtime.

This episode and the rest of the show will resume its regular schedule beginning next week. Episode 7 will premiere on Paramount+ with Showtime on Friday, Jan. 24 at 12 a.m. Et and air on Showtime on Sunday, Jan. 26 at 10 p.m Et.

Before the hiatus, Showtime made the right move with the release of a teaser trailer for its upcoming seventh episode.

Production is officially underway for “Dexter: Resurrection,” and star Michael C. Hall is just as excited about it as his longtime fans.

“I am on the set for the first official day of production for ‘Dexter: Resurrection,’ — It’s happening,” Hall said in a video posted to official “Dexter” social media accounts on Friday. “I’m looking forward to taking another thrill ride and when all is said and done to you taking the ride with us.

Hall will reprise his role as the titular character Dexter, whom he played for eight seasons on the original “Dexter” Showtime series. “Dexter: Resurrection” is set in the present day, following up on “Dexter: New Blood,” which followed Dexter in a new locale after his initial series’ finale. “Dexter: Resurrection” is expected to launch...

Exclusive: Creature feature The Yeti has set cast with Brittany Allen (Dexter: Original Sin), Eric Nelsen (1883), Corbin Bernsen (Kiss Kiss Bang Bang) and William Sadler (Iron Man 3) joining Jim Cummings (Thunder Road).

Production will begin later this month in Buffalo, New York, on the horror film from recently launched Torfoot Entertainment Group.

As we previously revealed, Radiant Films launched sales at last year’s AFM. The company has inked pre-sales for UK, Germany, and Italy with Plaion; Turkey with Aqua Pinema; India with Empire Networks; Middle East with Phoenicia; and Australia and New Zealand with Rialto. Sales will continue at the upcoming EFM in Berlin.

Pic is co-written and will be co-directed by Gene Gallerano (The First Wave) and William Pisciotta (Thunder Road).

The synopsis reads: “Oil tycoon Merriell Sunday Sr. and renowned adventurer Hollis Bannister have disappeared without a trace. Their last known location is northern Alaska.

Despite having one of the worst series finales in TV history, Dexter is still widely regarded as one of the best shows of the last 20 years.

Michael C. Hall’s compelling performance as the titular serial killer drew acclaim, and the series broke new ground for Showtime at a time when the premium cable network needed hit series that were big around the globe.

The TV market was different in 2006 when the series premiered.

Thanks to the current trend of turning any moderately successful property into a franchise, what was once a diamond in the rough has been milked dry. At least two more shows are still coming.

Dexter: New Blood was a fantastic opportunity to write the wrongs of Dexter’s 2013 series finale, but it was marred by having an equally divisive family in the form of Dexter’s son,...

[This story contains spoilers from the sixth episode of Dexter: Original Sin, “The Joy of Killing.”]

Perhaps you’ve heard the good news: Dexter: Original Sin is a ton of fun. Even if buried in a body bag — considering where the Showtime prequel just left off on its midseason break.

Featuring voiceover narration from original series lead Michael C. Hall, but otherwise starring an all-new lineup of actors playing an old-school array of fan-favorites, the prequel series Original Sin has taken the Dexter franchise (which is yes, a full-on franchise now) back to its familiar roots. Think Muppet Babies, but make it Miami Metro Pd (and don’t even attempt to besmirch Kermit Jr.’s good name, he and the other babies were saints).

Same deal here in Original Sin, where all of the original Dexter favorites — Dexter himself (Patrick Gibson) and sister Deb (Molly Brown), Miami’s finest Angel Batista (James Martinez) and Maria Laguerta (Christina Milian...

Another day, another dollar… another kidnapping.

In the opening moments of Friday’s Dexter: Original Sin, the serial kidnapper hits closer to home when Captain Spencer’s son Nicky gets taken from the family’s garage in a horrifying home invasion.

But Harry is nowhere near able to work that...

We now know who will take over for the late Ray Stevenson on Ahsoka and it’s a good choice for the part!

Ahsoka was one of the most anticipated Star Wars shows when it debuted in 2023. It focused on the long-popular character from The Clone Wars animated series, former Jedi Padawan Ahsoka Tano (Rosario Dawson), as she handles life in the post-Empire galaxy.

The series was a live-action sequel to the beloved Rebels animated series, with Ahsoka reuniting with old pals Sabine Wren (Natasha Liu Bordizzo) and Hera Syndulla (Mary Elizabeth Winstead). This involved a search for former would-be Jedi Ezra Bridger (Eman Esfandi).

The biggest part of the show was that it finally brought into live-action one of the greatest villains of the Star Wars universe, Grand Admiral Thrawn (Lars Mikkelsen). He was aided by the Nightsisters alongside Baylan Skoll and his apprentice Shin Hati (Ivanna Sakhno).

Skoll...

Dexter: Resurrection is making plans for its debut, which includes updates about filming, release window, and some big casting. Here’s what we know so far!

Per TV Line, Dexter: Resurrection will begin filming this month in January 2025, and is expected to premiere this summer on Paramount+ with Showtime. That’s definitely a fast turnaround. But you won't hear us complaining!

The prequel series, Dexter: Original Sin, is currently releasing new episodes and the season comes to a close in February. So it'll only be a few months after that until we get more of the crime drama world, this time back to Michael C. Hall who originated the role. Both in the prequel and Resurrection, there's some familiar faces reprising their roles. So who exactly?

Seacia Pavao/Showtime Who’s in Dexter: Resurrection?

Obviously, Michael C. Hall will return as Dexter, a bit weaker after the shooting that had supposedly caused his death,...

When Lucasfilm's Star Wars series Ahsoka premiered back in 2023, one of the standout characters was an enigmatic Sith lord named Baylan Skoll, played by seasoned actor Ray Stevenson. Stevenson has appeared in tons of shows and movies over the years, including Black Sails and Dexter; he excelled at playing villains who had such a deeply likable streak that you came to love them just as much as the heroes. Sadly, Baylan Skoll was one of Stevenson's final roles, as he died shortly before Ahsoka premiered.

That's left the fate of the character in question. Would Lucasfilm recast? Would they leave him wandering the wilds of Peridea, where he clearly had some mysterious goal he was chasing?

Now, it looks like the former won out. According to Hollywood scoop finder Jeff Sneider (via TV Line), Disney and Lucasfilm have recast Baylan Skoll with none other than Rory McCann, best known...

Star Trek needs to avoid the current trend in Hollywood by remaking anything. Too often we see stories get rebooted, retconned, or otherwise restarted just to continue a successful franchise. The most recent series, and one that I won't deny I'm very interested in, is the Dexter reboot. With a firm conclusion in Dexter: New Blood, a new series is in the works that rejects the ending of New Blood.

This new sequel series will go hand in hand with a new prequel series. I'm quite excited about it and hopefully, it does things the right way. It's something that Star Trek can't really do and needs to avoid doing. Thankfully, Star Trek hasn't done the reboot idea much, they're always one bad year creatively from going into the typical cesspool that is content reboots.

While it's fair to claim that the universe that started with Star Trek 2009 is...

The ever-expanding Dexter franchise is bringing James Remar and David Zayas back into the fold with Dexter: Resurrection. Remar will reprise his role as Dexter’s deceased dad and mentor, Harry. Zayas returns as Detective Angel Batista, a character he played in nearly 100 episodes of the original series.

Michael C. Hall leads the cast as serial killer Dexter Morgan, and Jack Alcott’s back as his son, Harrison, a role he played in Dexter: New Blood. Clyde Phillips guides the series as showrunner. Phillips also serves as an executive producer along with Michael C. Hall, Scott Reynolds (Jessica Jones), Tony Hernandez (Emily in Paris), and Lilly Burns (Russian Doll).

Marcos Siega (Dexter: New Blood) is involved as a producing director. The latest addition to the franchise is produced by Showtime Studios and Counterpart Studios.

The next Dexter spinoff is filling in its ranks with familiar faces.

David Zayas, James Remar and Jack Alcott will all be joining Michael C. Hall in Dexter: Resurrection, the next spinoff in the Paramount+ with Showtime franchise that will be releasing this summer.

Dexter: Resurrection will star Michael C. Hall, who originated the titular serial killer character of Dexter Morgan in the iconic Showtime series.

Zayas played Detective Angel Batista, friend and coworker to Dexter, and James Remar played his deceased father Harry Morgan in the original series that ran for eight seasons and ended in 2013. Alcott then played Dexter’s son, Harrison Morgan, in the 2021 Dexter revival series, Dexter: New Blood.

The currently airing prequel series, Dexter: Original Sin, resurrected Hall as Dexter in the season opener. It was known that Hall would narrate Original Sin, but not until the series premiered in December did the Dexter audience understand how everything would connect.

“Dexter: Resurrection” is bringing three franchise veterans into the fold.

David Zayas, James Remar, and Jack Alcott have all been cast in series regular roles in the upcoming Paramount+ with Showtime drama. They will now appear alongside Michael C. Hall, who will reprise the role of Dexter Morgan.

Zayas will once again play Det. Angel Batista, while Remar will play Harry Morgan, the roles they played in the original “Dexter.” Alcott will play Harrison Morgan, Dexter’s son, who first appeared in the sequel series “Dexter: New Blood” in 2021.

Production on “Dexter: Resurrection” is set to begin in January with a planned debut in the summer. No specific plot details are available for “Resurrection,” but the series will serve as a direct followup to “New Blood.”

In addition to his role in “Dexter,” Remar is known for his work in shows like “Sex and the City” and “City on a Hill.

Michael C. Hall will be back as his beloved character Dexter Morgan in the upcoming sequel series Dexter: Resurrection and more cast members have been announced.

The original series ran on Showtime for eight seasons from 2006 to 2013 and was followed by the limited series Dexter: New Blood, which ran fro 10 episodes in 2021.

Dexter: Resurrection will seemingly pick up from where New Blood left off, though a storyline has not yet been announced.

Dexter: Original Sin, a prequel series about a young Dexter with Michael providing the character’s inner voice, is currently airing on Showtime.

So, who else will appear in the upcoming 2025 sequel series?

Browse through the slideshow for the latest casting news…...

Exclusive: David Zayas, Jack Alcott and James Remar will join Michael C. Hall in the Paramount+ with Showtime Original series Dexter: Resurrection in series regular roles. Production begins on the new series this month and will premiere in the summer.

Zayas and Remar will return to the roles they made famous in the mothership series, Detective Angel Batista and Harry Morgan, Dexter’s father, respectively. Alcott will play Dexter’s son, Harrison Morgan, who he originally portrayed in Dexter: New Blood, the original series’ sequel that launched in 2021.

How Remar will return on a series regular basis will be interesting to see considering his character has been dead for quite some time. However, with Dexter: New Blood bleeding (pun not intended) into Dexter: Original Sin via the latter’s premiere, that might be a way in.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer was a monster-hunting fantasy series that ran from 1997-2003; it's been over a for a long time now, but in an age of constant reboots and revivals, it's surprising that it's never come back in one form or another. "Into every generation a slayer is born," we're told in the intro. It's been over 20 years. Where's the next one?

Well, there actually was a reboot in development at one time, executive produced by original Buffy creator Joss Whedon with Monica Owusu-Breen serving as showrunner. But so far as we can tell, it's dead. Why? Well, it might have something to do with Whedon being excommunicated from Hollywood after allegations of his toxic workplace behavior surfaced, with multiple stars on his shows and movies — among them Justice League star Ray Fisher and Angel star Charisma Carpenter — coming forward. Sarah Michelle Gellar, the original star on Buffy the Vampire Slayer,...

‘Dexter’ is a crime drama series about Dexter Morgan, a forensic expert who secretly works as a vigilante serial killer. The show originally aired from 2006 to 2013, gaining a large fanbase with its mix of suspense and moral dilemmas.

A spinoff, ‘Dexter: New Blood,’ aired in 2021, picking up Dexter’s story years after the original series ended. We know that two more spinoffs are coming: ‘Dexter: Original Sin’ which started releasing episodes on December 15, and ‘Dexter: Resurrection.’

A sequel series ‘Dexter: Resurrection’ was announced back in July, at San Diego Comic-Con, with Michael C. Hall returning as Dexter, and so far not much is known about the show but some new information has surfaced.

Recently, Clyde Phillips confirmed that the new show will premiere in June 2025, with filming starting in the first week of January. Now Daniel Richtman, a notable industry insider brings us some rumors regarding the show’s cast.

[This story contains spoilers from the first five episodes of Dexter: Original Sin.]

Three years after concluding with Dexter: New Blood, Showtime’s favorite serial killer is back in action with Dexter: Original Sin. The prequel series stars Patrick Gibson as a younger version of Dexter, with Michael C. Hall providing narration (and a surprising on-camera return as well). Set during Dexter’s earliest days working alongside Miami Metro, Original Sin comes packed with returning characters, tropes and Easter eggs aplenty for fans of the original show.

“We had this canon of lore from nine seasons of the show from which to draw,” Dexter franchise veteran and Original Sin showrunner Clyde Phillips told The Hollywood Reporter about the prequel series, which is now five episodes into its 10-episode season. “If people like Easter eggs, this show is going to be an Easter egg hunt. We would write the shows and start shooting them. Someone would come in and say,...

I love when a new episode of a show picks up right where the previous episode left off, and that’s what we have here, my friends. Remember, last week in Dexter: Original Sin episode 4, Mad Dog (Joe Pantoliano) awoke on Dexter’s (Patrick Gibson) kill table and managed to break free and escape before getting blindsided by a truck while running down the street, and subsequently killed, leaving Dex in his first real “Oh S**T” moment.

In this week’s episode 5 recap, we’ll follow everything that happens in the wake of Dexter’s kill gone wrong, including a major f**k-up on Harry’s (Christian Slater) part in court that ultimately sets a killer free, and equips Dexter with the surge of power he needs to convince Harry to set him free. Spoilers below.

Dexter: Original Sin is certainly drawing mixed feelings from fans of the franchise. Even though the series is getting a lot of acclaim and recognition for its quality, many believe it simply should not exist. Considering the Dexter franchise has already told quite a comprehensive story, one cannot help but wonder if there is a need for more additions.

With Dexter: Resurrection having already been confirmed to continue the story of Dexter’s son, many have questioned the need for a prequel series about a character that fans already know so much about. With some believing it to be an attempt at milking the character, it would seem that this wasn’t the original plan.

The creator of the franchise, Clyde Phillips, revealed the original plan for the spin-off was very different, and it...

This post contains spoilers for "Dexter" and "Dexter: New Blood."

"Tonight's the night. And it's gonna happen again and again. Has to happen." These opening lines grace the pilot episode of "Dexter," in which blood splatter specialist Dexter Morgan (Michael C. Hall) drives around while being on the prowl. What sets this show apart from most police procedurals is its upfront positioning of Dexter as a morally complex figure, a killer who (mostly) murders other killers who have managed to escape the justice system. However, this moral positioning starts to unravel once his meticulous plans start spiraling out of control and jeopardizing the faux-identity he has painstakingly crafted over the years. This tension between our intimate knowledge of Dexter's skewed vigilantism and the escalating suspicion about his crimes grants "Dexter" the edge required to become the tense, thrilling character-focused procedural that it is.

That said, even the best shows lose their way,...

What Do We Know About the upcoming continuation of the Dexter franchise, Resurrection? More than you may think. Following the success of the sequel series New Blood and the prequel Original Sin, Dexter star Michael C. Hall returns in Resurrection, and we know the plot, cast, and confirmed release date. Let’s dive in and look at what is coming up from Showtime with Dexter: Resurrection.

Dexter Morgan isn’t dead after all.

Despite Dexter: New Blood showrunner Clyde Phillips declaring that Dexter was truly dead at the end of the series and promised he would not lie to the audience, he later told TV Insider that the beginning of Resurrection would have a doctor say to Dexter ‘Had you been shot in the summertime, you’d be dead, but you were shot in zero degree weather. And we ripped you open, and we’re...

In Dexter: Original Sin, season 1 continues to unfold with an intense new episode titled “F is for F…-Up”, airing on Sunday, January 5, 2025, at 10:00 Pm on Parsho. The episode kicks off with a critical moment in Dexter’s life, as a kill goes wrong, leading to him being grounded by his father figure, Harry. Dexter’s typically unshakable confidence is tested, forcing him to confront his mistakes and deal with the consequences of his actions.

Meanwhile, Debra continues to explore her relationship with Gio, deepening their connection. As she reflects on her family’s past, Deb bonds with her brother Dexter on the anniversary of their mother’s death, bringing up old memories and unresolved emotions. The episode explores the tension between personal connections and the dark secrets both Dexter and Deb carry.

As the stakes continue to rise, “F is for F…-Up” promises to deliver a...

Showtime wasted no time greenlighting Dexter: Original Sin after New Blood’s record-breaking finale. While fans were shocked by Dexter’s end, the network acted quickly, opting for a prequel instead of a direct sequel. How’s that for timing?

Showrunner Clyde Phillips was all set to dive into a sequel. “We wrote all 10 episodes of the sequel,” Phillips revealed, adding that things got a little wild when MTV Entertainment’s Chris McCarthy came on board. McCarthy, fresh off the success of Yellowstone’s prequels, wasn’t into sequels. He wanted Original Sin. He told Phillips, “I’m not in the sequel business; I’m in the prequel business,” just like that, a Dexter prequel was born. Phillips quickly pitched it, and McCarthy’s four-word response sealed the deal: “Phenomenal. I love it.”

And bam, production kicked off.

But there’s more.

In Friday’s episode of Dexter: Original Sin, our titular killer with a code experiences some normal, non-murdery feelings when a child — Judge Powell’s abducted son Jimmy — is sadly found dead, his body strung from a bridge.

Dexter has a panicked, sickened feeling after seeing his first dead kid, and the whole experience shakes him to his core. Harry assures his son that it’s a good thing that Dexter feels so spun by the sight of a dead child. So while Miami Metro deals with the Powell case, Harry sends Dexter to another scene dealing with a dead prostitute.

Fans of Showtime’s “Dexter” series are noticing that Sergeant James Doakes isn’t in “Dexter: Original Sin,” the new spinoff. The show takes place in 1991 before Doakes started working at the Miami Metro Police Department, so he is not there.

The series is about Dexter Morgan when he was younger and shows how he started as a forensic expert and a vigilante killer. While many characters from the original series are back, including Angel Batista, Vince Masuka, and Maria Laguerta, Sergeant Doakes is noticeably absent. He is known for his intense attitude and suspicion of Dexter.

Based on the show’s timing, Doakes could still be in the US Army Rangers or just starting as a police officer somewhere else during “Original Sin.” The third episode of the series introduces Maria Laguerta, who transfers to Miami Metro and shows that important new employees are still coming to the department.

The Dexter universe is growing larger by the second. Dexter: Original Sin is currently telling the origins of the young serial killer, but another prequel series could soon follow. Deadline reports that a prequel series revolving around the Trinity Killer (played by John Lithgow in the original series) is still “in development” at Paramount+.

The Trinity Killer prequel series was actually reported to be in condition in early 2023, but it’s been a long time since we’ve heard anything about it. Dexter showrunner Clyde Phillips and Dexter writer/producer Scott Reynolds will serve as co-creators and executive producers of the Trinity Killer prequel series. Phillips even revealed that John Lithgow has agreed to come back and provide the inner voice of his younger self, much in the same way Michael C. Hall is doing for Dexter: Original Sin.

“We wrote the entire Trinity Killer series.

Exclusive: The Dexter Trinity Killer prequel series, following the makings of the notorious serial killer played by John Lithgow in the mothership series, remains “in development” at Paramount+ with Showtime and has come a long way since it was originally announced in early 2023 as being in the exploration stages, sources close to production tell Deadline.

Original Dexter showrunner Clyde Phillips and fellow Dexter veteran Scott Reynolds serve as co-creators and executive producers of the Trinity Killer spinoff prequel, we hear. They held a development room for the project earlier this spring. As scripts were being written, there were erroneous media reports that the project was not moving forward which was never the case, sources said.

Phillips shared an update on the Trinity Killer offshoot with Deadline while promoting Dexter: Original Sin in New York City earlier this month.

“We wrote the entire Trinity Killer series. At the moment, it is on the back burner,...

The crime drama series Dexter originally aired on Showtime for eight seasons, from 2006 to 2013, then it was revived with a season called Dexter: New Blood in 2021, and now a prequel series called Dexter: Original Sin is airing on Showtime and the Paramount+ streaming service. Since the show takes place 15 years before the original show, it required a new cast to bring younger versions of the Dexter characters to life – and during an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, actors James Martinez and Alex Shimizu revealed what it was like to take on the roles of Detective Angel Batista and forensics expert Vince Masuka.

Martinez follows in the footsteps of David Zayas to play Batista, and he told The Hollywood Reporter that he and Zayas knew each other from the New York theater community before he got the job on Dexter: Original Sin. “I’ve always been a fan of his stage work.

In a spinoff-laden 2024 that even gave Scar from “The Lion King” a sneaky origin story, it’s no wonder that Showtime’s foremost serial killer is back for “Dexter: Original Sin.”

The new prequel series is streaming on Paramount+ with Showtime and — spoiler alert — begins by foreshadowing Michael C. Hall’s return as the clever antihero for the upcoming “Dexter: Resurrection” sequel series. That reveal puts even more pressure on “Original Sin” star Patrick Gibson to nail his rendition of the blood-thirsty title character at 20.

“When I saw this script, my initial thought was, ‘Dang, that’s going to be tough for the guy who has to play Dexter because that’s such a performance to follow,’” actress Molly Brown told IndieWire. “But Michael just wasn’t finished with the character, and the audience isn’t finished either. The only way you can do that is if both parties feel that way,...

When Dexter: Original Sin viewers see the fedora and hear the giggle, they know who’s coming.

For eight seasons on the original Dexter, the audience of Showtime’s hit serial killer series became familiar with the main players on the Miami Metro Homicide team where Michael C. Hall’s starring Dexter Morgan worked. Two of those characters were Detective Angel Batista, played by David Zayas, and forensics expert Vince Masuka, played by C.S. Lee.

Prequel series Dexter: Original Sin, which arrived on Paramount+ last week, heads back to the 1990s to show how Dexter (played here by Patrick Gibson) became the blood splatter analyst by day and serial killer by night who viewers were introduced to in the 2006 series. James Martinez and Alex Shimizu take on the Batista and Masuka roles in the prequel, bringing back their signature fedora and giggle, respectively.
