Dexter: Original Sin Season 2 Fate Revealed (Renewed or Cancelled?)

by

Fans of Dexter received pleasant news on Tuesday morning as it was announced that Dexter: Original Sin has been renewed for a second season. Given its immense popularity on Paramount+ with Showtime, this renewal is hardly unexpected. The prequel to Dexter currently holds the title as the most-streamed original series from Showtime, which can be largely attributed to Paramount’s decision to transfer all Showtime streaming content onto Paramount+ in 2023. The demand for additional Dexter content has been evident, and it looks like the story of Young Dexter will carry on for another season at least.

According to TheWrap’s latest reports, showrunner and executive producer Clyde Phillips is returning for Season 2 of “Dexter: Original Sin”. Although no production dates have been finalized yet, it’s said that the writers room will open soon. This news about another season of “Dexter: Original Sin” is certainly exciting! However, it seems Paramount is also contemplating additional spin-offs from the original “Dexter” series. Michael C. Hall has already returned in “Dexter: Resurrection”, which is currently being filmed in New York City. Interestingly, Paramount might be planning to develop more characters from “Dexter: Resurrection” into their own standalone series. Previously, a spin-off centered around the Trinity Killer was announced by Showtime, with John Lithgow narrating like Michael C. Hall did in “Original Sin”. Although progress on that project has been slow, it’s still believed to be ongoing.

I had a chat with the showrunner of “Dexter: Original Sin,” Clyde Phillips, who shared his aspirations for upcoming seasons.

In 1991, nestled amidst the vibrant backdrop of Miami, I find myself immersed in the gripping tale of “Dexter: Original Sin“. As Patrick Gibson’s character, Dexter, I navigate my journey from an ordinary student to a relentless avenger. The irresistible call of my inner darkness becomes too strong to ignore, leading me on a path that’s both thrilling and morally complex.

My father, Harry, portrayed by the talented Christian Slater, serves as my mentor, guiding me through a unique Code. This Code helps me identify and eliminate individuals who pose a threat to society, all while staying off law enforcement’s radar.
