Marcos Siega’s call to fans to help rebuild the hype around the prequel revealed how people genuinely feel about it.
Nearly four months have passed since the cancellation of Dexter: Original Sin, a series that had unofficially secured a second-season renewal before that decision was reversed by Paramount’s new bosses. While the...Dexterverse is far from done, with Dexter: Resurrection set to return in 2026, many fans are still struggling to accept the sudden and unresolved ending of the prequel. The frustration hasn’t faded with time, and if anything, it seems to be lingering just beneath the surface.
That quiet frustration was just reignited following a new interview with Dexter: Resurrection executive producer and director Marcos Siega. His appearance on a Dexter fan podcast quickly sparked renewed discussion, and once our coverage on Dexter Daily began circulating, it actually became clear that people are not ready to move on. The reaction showed, once again, that Dexter: Original Sin still has a strong emotional grip on fans who want to see the story continue.
Siega’s comments were particularly interesting because, while he did not claim to have any insider knowledge about a potential second-season revival, his words carried a clear message of hope. He openly expressed optimism about the future of the Dexter universe and encouraged continued conversation around Original Sin.
Whether intentional or not, his remarks felt like an invitation for fans and media alike to keep the discussion alive, on the chance that momentum could eventually lead Paramount to reconsider the cancellation.
What actually made Siega’s perspective resonate even more is that it came not just from a key creative figure in the franchise, but from someone speaking as a fan himself. He emphasized his desire to see the so-called Dexterverse expand and made it clear that hte plans once envisioned for spin-offs and for Original Sin are ideas he still believes in. And this message was simple but also powerful: keep talking, keep hoping, and do not let the conversation die out.
The response to that interview across our social media, particularly on our Facebook and X pages, was overwhelmingly supportive of a potential Dexter: Original Sin revival. Fans rallied around the idea of a “resurrection,” reinforcing the fact that interest in the series remains strong and that the first real step toward reigniting bigger buzz may already be underway.
That momentum continued today through the cast themselves. Alex Shimizu, who portrayed a young Vince Masuka, and Christina Milian, who played a younger Maria LaGuerta, both shared Dexter Daily’s article and urged fans to keep supporting the main petition.
Milian also shared a beautiful message reflecting on the show’s impact, noting that just a year ago Dexter: Original Sin premiered and became an instant hit. She spoke about the unique energy on set, the bond formed with the cast and crew, and her belief that great shows never truly die, ending with a clear call to bring young Dexter back.
Over the past several months, we have actually published multiple articles outlining why the decision to cancel Dexter: Original Sin was a big mistake, and those arguments carry even more weight now. Fan demand remains strong, key creatives and actors are still voicing their support, and the Dexter brand itself is arguably more popular than ever. Taken together...it is pretty clear that the story of Original Sin may not be finished just yet.
