Dexter: Resurrection: Michael C. Hall Returns in First Video from Sequel Series Set

In a fresh update from the set of the upcoming sequel series, Michael C. Hall, star of “Dexter: Resurrection“, reprises his iconic role as Dexter Morgan, the title serial killer. Some characters are so skillfully played that it’s hard to envision anyone else embodying them. This includes Robert Downey Jr. as Iron Man, Bryan Cranston as Walter White, and others who have become synonymous with their roles. Michael C. Hall is one such actor, having portrayed Dexter Morgan for almost two decades and leaving an indelible impact on the character. Although Patrick Gibson now plays a younger version of the character in “Dexter: Original Sin”, Hall’s interpretation remains unforgettable.

Following an impressive eight-season stint playing Dexter in the original series from 2006 to 2013, fans persistently questioned Michael C. Hall about a possible comeback to the character. He was always amenable to the idea when the moment was ripe and if the narrative was compelling enough, but it took almost a decade for that opportunity to arise. In Dexter: New Blood, a ten-episode limited series, Dexter met his sad demise. The ending of Dexter: New Blood left fans frustrated and yearning for a resurrection of the character. It appeared unlikely that this would actually transpire, given the rarity of a show undoing its own finale twice. However, it’s been confirmed that Michael C. Hall will reprise his role in a new sequel series titled Dexter: Resurrection, set to premiere this summer.

The details about the upcoming show “Dexter: Resurrection” are still scarce, but production has commenced as of late and Michael C. Hall has shared a video message with fans to mark the occasion. On January 17th, 2025, while on set for “Dexter: Resurrection”, Hall expressed his eagerness to return and his anticipation in delivering the final product to the audience later this year. The filming of “Dexter: Resurrection” started last week, with a photo being shared by Marcos Siega. It’s uncertain whether Hall filmed on the 17th or during the initial production week, but it’s certain that the production for “Dexter: Resurrection” has kicked off.

So far, Showtime hasn’t disclosed any specifics about the storyline of Dexter: Resurrection, but the premiere episode of Dexter: Original Sin gave us a glimpse into how Dexter managed to survive his fatal gunshot wound at the end of New Blood. Basically, he was taken to the hospital by Angela Bishop and miraculously revived. The series creator, Clyde Phillips, hinted that the cold weather and snow may have stopped his bleeding and saved his life. In this new series, it appears that Dexter’s secret as a serial killer has been exposed to his old friend Angel Batista as well as the police force at large, suggesting that he will spend this upcoming season in hiding or on the run.

In the forthcoming weeks, we’ll probably gather more information since filming for “Dexter: Resurrection” is underway, particularly because it’s set in New York City. Locations like Manhattan are expected to be filmed extensively, ensuring an abundance of fan-taken photos and videos as production intensifies. At present, the antagonist of this new series hasn’t been officially announced, but there are strong whispers that Peter Dinklage will portray Dexter’s adversary in this installment. Aside from him, only David Zayas, James Remar, and Jack Alcott have been confirmed to reprise their roles as Angel Batista, Harry, and Harrison respectively, from the original “Dexter” and “Dexter: New Blood”.

Fans are eagerly anticipating the possibility of Desmond Harrington reprising his role as Joey Quinn in “Dexter: Resurrection”, yet there’s no official confirmation. Given that Harrington attended the premiere of “Dexter: Original Sin” with other cast members confirmed for “Dexter: Resurrection”, it could be a positive indication for his potential comeback.
