Michael C. Hall Filming “Cold in July” In Kingston
Inside an inconspicuous Broadway mini-market in Midtown Tuesday afternoon, a story of death, violence and deception was unfolding starring a man known by millions as a serial killer. At least on film.
Actor Michael C. Hall, best known for starring as a serial killer in the Showtime series “Dexter,” is shooting scenes in Kingston over the next month as the star of the indie film “Cold in July,” directed by Jim Mickle.
It’s the fourth film to be shot in the Hudson Valley in 2013, with one more set to start, said Laurent Rejto of the non-profit Hudson Valley Film Commission. But it’s the first film to be based in and shooting exclusively in Kingston this year.
In the film, Hall plays the protagonist Richard Dane, who shoots and kills an armed burglar in his living room. It’s a clear-cut case of self defense to everyone but the burglar’s father, who vows Old Testament-style eye-for-an-eye justice. Here, that means son for son. The cops, the feds, and the Dixie mafia all play a part in the ensuing mayhem.

Showtime President David Nevins Teases the Final Episodes of Dexter Season 8
Apart from the possibility of a spin-off, Showtime president David Nevins also talked about the upcoming episodes of the final season. Nevins promises major story turns every single week as Dexter comes to a close.
"There's always things that can be done (after)," Nevins said according to TVGuide. "I think Dexter ends with great satisfaction.

C.S. Lee Dishes on Masuka's Latest Discovery: "It Is Going to Change Him"
via Examiner: "You definitely see a new side to him...I think definitely having a daughter is going to change him. How can it not? It's such a big life change," C.S. Lee said to LA TV Insider Examiner when we caught up with him at the Showtime "For Your Consideration" wrapped Coolhaus ice cream truck in Los Angeles.
"The show is called Dexter; it's not called Masuka. I wish it was, but you know, Dexter is the cake, and we're sort of the icing on the cake, and you can only devote a certain amount of time [to this story], but we do get into the fun of how these two get to know each other."
