Will Dexter: Original Sin Return for Season 2?

Although the initial run of Dexter concluded back in 2013, it hasn’t stopped evolving as a franchise. In fact, we’ve already seen a follow-up series titled New Blood, and there’s another sequel, named Resurrection, on its way within the next few months.

In addition, viewers are now enjoying the debut of the series’ prequel titled “Dexter: Original Sin.” This spin-off features Patrick Gibson stepping into the role as a younger iteration of the title character.

As a dedicated fan, I couldn’t help but feel thrilled when I learned that the first episode of this season has broken records! It’s now available to stream in its entirety and it has become Showtime’s most-watched premiere ever, with an astounding 2.1 million global viewers tuning in across various platforms. Clearly, fellow Dexter fans are as eager as ever for fresh content!

So, are we looking at a possibility of another season for the prequel, moving us even closer in time to the initial series? Here’s what you should know about Dexter: Original Sin’s second season.

Will there be a Dexter: Original Sin season 2?

As a die-hard fan, I can tell you that there’s a glimmer of anticipation in the air about the potential return of Dexter: Original Sin for another season. However, at this moment, we’re all in suspense, eagerly waiting to hear any official news.

Patrick Gibson, the actor portraying the younger version of Dexter in the show, expressed his enthusiasm for potentially returning for a second season. He further mentioned that he thoroughly enjoyed working on the project.

He went on to say, “Everyone associated with this project is simply amazing! It’s a privilege to work alongside Clyde, the initial creator, who continues to be part of this endeavor. And let me tell you, the cast is outstanding too. I’d consider myself incredibly fortunate to return to this project.

I’d be intrigued to witness the character evolve… It seems as though this series is similar to a pilot, where much groundwork is being laid and he’s learning from his initial kill experience. Therefore, I’m eager to observe him growing more assured in his approach and taking bolder actions, but such progress might bring tougher lessons along the way.

It seems like the importance of this series is growing more and more, which makes it quite intriguing. Moreover, I’m excited about the possibility of encountering new characters from the original work.

When could a potential Dexter: Original Sin season 2 be released?

A second season for Dexter: Original Sin isn’t set in stone just yet, as it hasn’t been officially confirmed, which makes it difficult to predict its return date.

If it comes back, we might expect to see it again as soon as early-2026. The initial announcement for its first season was made in 2023, and the cast was finalized in May 2024. Filming started shortly after that in June, and by then it had already been a short while before the series began airing.

This swift resolution hints at a possible pattern repeating for season 2; however, we’re left in suspense until further updates arrive.

Who could be back for a potential Dexter: Original Sin season 2?

As a die-hard fan of the Dexter series, I can’t help but speculate about the potential return of “Dexter: Original Sin.” If it were to happen, I’d envision the cast being spearheaded once more by Patrick Gibson and Christian Slater, while the enigmatic Michael C. Hall would grace our screens again as Dexter’s inner voice, guiding him through his dark journey.

Additionally, it’s probable that other actors like Molly Brown, Christina Milian, Alex Shimizu, and James Martinez may return, given that their characters were present in the initial Dexter series as well.

You can find a list of those cast members who are most likely to return for season 2 here:

  • Patrick Gibson as Dexter Morgan

  • Christian Slater as Harry Morgan
