Exciting casting news for Dexter: Resurrection was revealed earlier today!
After months of anticipation, Dexter fans were thrilled to receive official casting news from Showtime earlier today. Michael C. Hall is no longer the sole confirmed cast member for Dexter: Resurrection, as some familiar faces will be joining him in the highly anticipated fourth installment of the series.
The returning cast includes two beloved mainstays from the original series (2006-2013) and a standout from "Dexter: New Blood." That’s right—David Zayas, James Remar, and Jack Alcott are officially back in the Dexter universe, reprising their iconic roles in Dexter: Resurrection.
The new series picks up three years after the controversial finale of "New Blood" and will reportedly see Dexter surviving the gunshot wound. According to multiple reports, the first season of "Dexter: Resurrection" will be primarily set in New York City, marking a fresh and intriguing backdrop for the story.
Filming for the series kicks off this week. In fact, just yesterday, we shared a casting call here on Dexter Daily for child extras in the New York area for upcoming scenes. Stay tuned as more production details unfold.
Reactions from the Returning Cast
David Zayas, best known for his role as Angel Batista, expressed his excitement on Instagram by sharing a screenshot of the casting news from Deadline, the outlet that first broke the story. Accompanying the post, Zayas wrote:
“Let’s Gooooo. I’m so thankful.”
Meanwhile, Jack Alcott, who portrayed Harrison Morgan in Dexter: New Blood, took a more playful approach, captioning his Instagram post:
“Back with a vengeance 😤”
James Remar, who memorably played Dexter’s father, Harry Morgan, is no longer active on Instagram. However, fans may recall that back on December 30, we exclusively reported here on Dexter Daily that Remar had confirmed his return via a Cameo video for a fan.
