Dexter: Resurrection Filming Begins – Director Marcos Siega Unveils First Set Photo!

Dexter: Resurrection starts filming on the 3rd anniversary of Dexter: New Blood finale.

Today, January 9, 2025, marks three years since the divisive finale of Dexter: New Blood first aired on Showtime. While the finale left fans debating its impact, it also set the stage for a new chapter in the Dexter franchise. The wait is finally over—filming for the highly anticipated sequel series, Dexter: Resurrection, officially began today.

Michael C. Hall is back to reprise his iconic role as America’s favorite fictional serial killer, Dexter Morgan. Fans can also look forward to the return of key cast members, including David Zayas (Angel Batista), James Remar (Harry Morgan), and Jack Alcott (Harrison Morgan), whose involvement was confirmed earlier this week.

Marcos Siega Shares a Sneak Peek from Day 1 of Filming

Marcos Siega, a director with deep ties to the Dexter franchise, took to social media this morning to share a photo of a filming clapper from the first day of shooting Dexter: Resurrection. Siega, who directed six episodes of Dexter: New Blood and several from the original series, hinted at exciting developments in the new installment.

What caught fans’ attention wasn’t just the clapperboard but the snowy background in the photo. Could this setting confirm that Dexter: Resurrection picks up immediately after Angela Bishop’s desperate attempt to save Dexter’s life? The snowy backdrop suggests that viewers might finally see the true aftermath of the New Blood finale.

Dexter’s Return: What We Know So Far

The franchise has already teased Dexter’s return in Dexter: Original Sin, the prequel series currently halfway through its first season. The prequel hinted that Dexter was revived following the events of New Blood. With Resurrection set to continue the story from where New Blood left off, fans are eager to learn more about how Dexter survived—and what lies ahead.

Adding to the excitement, Siega teased that even more familiar faces will join the cast of Dexter: Resurrection. In a post yesterday, Siega shared a screenshot of Deadline’s announcement about Zayas, Remar, and Alcott’s return, writing: “Here we go! Wait till you see who else is joining us!”
