Dexter: Resurrection – Michael C Hall returns in new season, complete cast, plot & release date revealed
Dexter Morgan isn't done yet. Just when we thought New Blood closed the coffin for good, Dexter: Resurrection tears it right open. Michael C Hall returns in what Showtime is calling the most 'unpredictable chapter' in the iconic serial killer saga. The Dexter Resurrection release date has finally been confirmed as Friday, 11th July 2025, with a double-episode premiere on Paramount+, followed by a weekly release.
And yes—this time, Dexter's not hiding in a snowy town. He's alive, dangerous, and loose in New York City.
Dexter: Resurrection is made by Showtime but will stream on Paramount+. This is a smart move to grow the show's reach. It uses Paramount+'s large streaming audience. At the same time, it keeps Showtime's name and identity strong. This plan helps bring more fans to the Dexter franchise.

What is Dexter: Resurrection about?
After surviving that gunshot from his own son Harrison at the end of New Blood, Dexter wakes up in a hospital—alive, confused, and very much alone. His son has vanished, and his past is catching up fast.
Desperate to find Harrison, Dexter lands in NYC where he crosses paths with Leon Prater, a billionaire with a disturbing obsession with serial killers. Played by none other than Peter Dinklage, this twisted new villain isn't just rich—he's dark, curious, and deadly. Prater's inviting the most dangerous killers for a little... get-together. Dexter's just one of the guests.

As Michael C Hall told Vanity Fair, this series is more than just a comeback—it's a reset button. 'The ending of New Blood didn't sit right. This time, we're doing it properly.'
Watch the Dexter: Resurrection Trailer
The newly released Dexter Resurrection trailer delivers exactly what fans have been craving—tense music, shadowy alleys, blood spatter, and that classic Dexter monologue. We get glimpses of Harrison, possibly even darker than before, and a loaded stare-down between Dexter and Batista. The city's big, but it won't hide Dexter for long.
Who's in the Dexter: Resurrection cast?
The Dexter Resurrection cast is star-studded and absolutely killer:
Michael C Hall as Dexter Morgan (back in full psychopathic glory)
Jack Alcott as Harrison Morgan (still haunted, still dangerous)
Peter Dinklage as Leon Prater (the chilling new billionaire villain)
Uma Thurman as Charley (a former Special Ops officer, now head of Prater's security)
David Zayas as Angel Batista (finally back in a bigger role)
James Remar as Harry Morgan (Dexter's moral compass—sort of)
Krysten Ritter as Lady Vengeance (a serial killer disguised as a seductive sommelier)
John Lithgow as the Trinity Killer (yes, he's back from the dead—kind of)
Jimmy Smits as ADA Miguel Prado (returning for a brief but powerful cameo)
Eric Stonestreet, David Dastmalchian, Ntare Guma Mbaho Mwine, and more in mystery roles
One heartbreaking update though—Jennifer Carpenter (Debra Morgan) won't return this time. She told People she's proud of what she did in New Blood and has now moved on.
Dexter: Resurrection Behind the Scenes
Filming began in January 2025, and the Dexter Resurrection release date just six months later shows how tightly this was executed. Michael C Hall shared a video from day one on set, saying:
'I'm on set. It's happening. Get ready to take another thrill ride with us.'
Showrunner Clyde Phillips also confirmed that the show is structured to allow new viewers to jump in, calling it 'fresh' and 'fully formed.' But for the loyal fans—expect plenty of callbacks and hidden treats.
What's Next for Dexter Morgan?
If all goes well, this won't be a one-off. Phillips said the plan is to continue the story beyond this season, and Hall is fully on board. In his words:
'This isn't a final goodbye. This is just the beginning of something bigger.'

The Dexter universe is expanding. Original Sin, the prequel series, has already laid the foundation. Now Resurrection is picking up that baton—and sprinting into something far more ambitious.
Dexter: Resurrection - Masala Moments to Watch For
A showdown between Dexter and Batista—the one we've waited years for
Peter Dinklage channeling pure chaos as a villain richer than God and just as arrogant
Dexter and Harrison's twisted father-son reunion—can they bond... without killing anyone?
Krysten Ritter's deadly alter ego may give Dexter a run for his money
