Michael C. Hall to Return for DEXTER Sequel Series RESURRECTION and Prequel ORIGINAL SIN

Michael C Hall Dexter Resurrection

Michael C. Hall is set to reprise the iconic role of Dexter Morgan for the sequel series titled "Dexter: Resurrection", and provide narration for the prequel series "Dexter: Original Sin".

Set in present day, "Resurrection" will follow-up the events in "New Blood". It is set to premiere in Summer 2025. The big question is how can Dexter still be around for the sequel, when the character was killed off in the "New Blood" finale, and even creator and showrunner Clyde Phillips confirmed that Dexter is dead.

After announcing his return to the franchise at the San Diego Comic-Con, Michael C. Hall offere a cryptic answer to questions about the character's survival in the finale which saw the serial killer bleeding out in the freezing cold: "I don’t know what I am authorized to say other than, it's really cold out there.". He also added that "Ressurection" will pick up "right where we left off". And, it could "potentially" be a multiple seasons show.

"Dexter: Original Sin" will premiere in December 2024, and it stars Patrick Gibson as a young Dexter and Christian Slater as his father, Harry Morgan. The cast also includes Molly Brown, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Patrick Dempsey, Joe Pantoliano and Christina Milian.

The decision to make more shows with the character is no doubt motivated by the fact that the original "Dexter" series is enjoying quite a resurgence lately, rising on the Neilsen charts and landing in the No. 2 spot for the week of June 24 with 1.48 billion viewing minutes across all platforms. Previous seasons of both shows are available for subscribers on Paramount+ with the Paramount+ with Showtime plan.

Chris McCarthy, Paramount Global Co-CEO had this to say about the new shows:
"We are thrilled to have the brilliant Michael C. Hall reprise his iconic role as Dexter Morgan in Showtime’s most successful series ever. While ‘Dexter: Ressurection’ will appeal to the tens of millions of longtime fans, ‘Dexter: Original Sin‘ will introduce a whole new generation of viewers into this iconic series by starting from the beginning, which is sure to satisfy existing audiences as well."
