Honestly? We’re loving the Dexter renaissance. It looked like we had seen the last of our favorite vigilante during the final episode of 2021’s Dexter: New Blood, but rumors of Dexter’s (Michael C. Hall) demise were premature.

Never underestimate the allure of potentially profitable IP!

The first season of Dexter: Resurrection felt like a return to form for the franchise, and we can’t wait to see what Season 2 has in store for us. The second season, per Paramount, finds Dexter caught between two killers — the New York Ripper (Brian Cox) and the Five Borough Killer (Dan Stevens) — as he battles an unexpected enemy: a mid-life crisis.

The upcoming season also features a host of returning cast members, including Uma Thurman, Jack Alcott, Ntare Guma Mbaho Mwine, Kadia Saraf, Dominic Fumusa, Desmond Harrington, and James Remar.
