MURDER in mind

DEXTER: RESURRECTION NEW FROM FRI 11 JULY, PARAMOUNT+ DRAMA (FIRST TWO EPISODES FROM 11 JULY, THEN WEEKLY)

It's rare to root for a serial killer. But there's something about Dexter Morgan...

In original US drama series Dexter, which ran from 2006 to 2013, the master of concealment (played by Michael C. Hall) channelled his murderous urges - directed by an inner voice he calls his 'dark passenger' - into a 'code' created by his adoptive dad, cop Harry (James Remar). Working as a blood-spatter expert with Miami Metro Police, the vigilante targeted those who'd escaped justice, taking out the trash and cleaning up his crime scenes.

Almost unmasked as the infamous 'Bay Harbor Butcher' once, Dexter faked his own death in the Series 8 finale as his past threatened to catch up with him again.

Tracked down by his teenage son Harrison (Jack Alcott) and former colleague Angel Batista (David Zayas) in 2021's Dexter: New Blood, the anti-hero was left for dead after being shot by his lad, who has a 'dark passenger' of his own.

In the opening scene of last year's prequel to the franchise, Dexter: Original Sin, fans saw how Dexter had survived. Now, in new series Dexter: Resurrection - a sequel to New Blood - we join him 10 weeks later as he wakes from his coma while, in New York, Harrison is in trouble.

imageHere, in an exclusive interview, Michael, 54, and David, 62, tell TV Times what lies ahead in the Paramount+ 10-parter...

How does it feel to be reprising your roles for another new chapter in the world of Dexter?

MICHAEL It's exciting to know that the character remains vital for people.

DAVID Any opportunity to grow on what we've been doing for so long is a gift.
