This new casting call hints at a major character.
Production for Dexter: Resurrection is now in its eighth consecutive week, with filming taking place in the bustling heart of New York City. This phase of production has been particularly rich in set photos, revealing exciting new additions to the Dexter franchise. Among those spotted on set with Michael C. Hall are Uma Thurman and Krysten Ritter. Additionally, fans have just gotten their first look at Neil Patrick Harris in his mysterious new role as Lowell.
As filming reaches Episode 4, a new casting call has surfaced, shedding light on another major addition to the cast. According to Waldron Casting, one of New York City's leading casting agencies—hired by Paramount for background casting—a stand-in is needed for none other than Peter Dinklage.
Peter Dinklage was recently confirmed as a series regular in Dexter: Resurrection, portraying a compelling new character named Leon Prater. While he has yet to be seen in any set photos, this new casting call strongly suggests that his on-screen presence is imminent.
The casting call specifically seeks a white male, 4'6" or shorter (Dinklage himself is 4'5"), to serve as his stand-in. This individual will be required on set for four days, from Tuesday, March 11, to Friday, March 14.
For those unfamiliar, a stand-in plays a crucial role in production, stepping in for the lead actor during lighting setups, camera positioning, and rehearsals. This ensures that when the actual scene is filmed, everything is perfectly in place.
