An official synopsis for Dexter: Resurrection is not yet available, but the series will be a follow-up to Dexter: New Blood and set in present day. The series will be executive-produced by Clyde Phillips (Dexter, Dexter: Original Sin), who also returns as showrunner. Hall is on board as an additional EP.
Prequel series Dexter: Original Sin is currently airing. In its premiere we learned that the titular serial killer was being medically treated for the gunshot wound we thought had killed him. (Harrison fired that bullet in New Blood’s finale.) Original Sin is currently halfway through its Season 1 run, with its finale set to stream Feb. 14; the episode will air on Paramount+ With Showtime Sunday, Feb. 16 at 10/9c.
Deadline was first to report the news.
