Dexter Writer Scott Reynolds Holds Speech at EMU and Receives Doctor of Arts & Letters Award

A 1995 Eastern Michigan University graduate who rode out a series of menial jobs to become an award-winning screenwriter for the Showtime series "Dexter" offered his story as an example for 2013 graduates during a keynote speech Sunday at the Convocation Center in Ypsilanti.

“It was a long hard road, but (screenwriting) was and is what I’ve always wanted to do,” Scott Reynolds said during the morning commencement ceremony. “And that’s what you want to say about your life, right? Achieving your dream? Not just living for the weekend. Getting the desires of your heart.”

After graduating from Eastern with a degree in English literature and theater and a minor in film studies, Reynolds moved to Los Angeles to pursue his dream to become a screenwriter. Seven years later, Reynolds said he still hadn’t sold a screenplay or been staffed on a show and began to watch his friends start to give up on their dreams and move back home.

Showtime President David Nevins Discusses the Plan to End Dexter, Possible Spinoff and More

The Hollywood Reporter caught up with Showtime President David Nevins to discuss the plan to end Dexter, if he thinks there's room for the series to spawn a spinoff and more.

THR: Was it always the plan to wrap Dexter when the series was renewed for seasons seven and eight in November 2011?
Nevins: It was always a likely plan; I always said that was likely. I felt like the right timing was to announce it firmly just in advance of its last season. The show has such loyal, passionate and intense fans and I wanted to handle it the right way. It was always the likely scenario. I wanted to leave the possibility that if something changed as the creators developed it but it became clear as we talked in between last season and this season that they had an end game. Once Deb crossed the line she did when she found out, it was leading to the end game.

THR: How much input are you having on the final trajectory of what happens with this character?
Nevins: I'm certainly involved in the discussions. The creative is being fundamentally driven by [showrunner] Scott Buck and John Goldwyn, Sara Colleton and Michael C. Hall. They've been the bedrock of this show and this character since the beginning. I have input but I don't want to give any suggestions about where it's going to end. I'm really excited. How we end the show is really important; this is such a core franchise and it's important we do it the right way. They have an amazing and fitting end in store.
