Dexter: New Blood (2021)

Dexter: New Blood is an American crime drama mystery miniseries developed for Showtime as a continuation of the series Dexter, developed by original series showrunner Clyde Phillips and directed by Marcos Siega. The show features Michael C. Hall and Jennifer Carpenter reprising their roles as Dexter and Debra Morgan, respectively, alongside new cast members Jack Alcott, Julia Jones, Johnny Sequoyah, Alano Miller and Clancy Brown. The story is set 10 years after the events of the original series finale “Remember the Monsters?”, which was broadcast in 2013. It premiered on Showtime on November 7, 2021.

After faking his death ten years ago in a hurricane, Dexter Morgan has moved to the fictional small town of Iron Lake, New York, hiding his identity under the name of Jim Lindsay, a clerk at a local wilderness sporting gear store. He has a romantic relationship with the town’s chief of police Angela Bishop, and has been successfully suppressing his vigilante serial killing urges. Dexter’s deceased sister Debra has replaced their father Harry as an imaginary presence he often speaks to. In the first episode, his estranged son Harrison from his previous life arrives unannounced with mysterious motives. A string of incidents around Iron Lake causes Dexter to fear that the “Dark Passenger” within him, and potentially within his son, will reveal itself.
