Dexter: Resurrection Casts Game of Thrones’ Peter Dinklage

Despite fans already getting one sequel, it appears that Dexter isn’t quite finished just yet. The upcoming series titled “Dexter: Resurrection” will carry on the tale of the title vigilante serial killer following his apparent demise in “Dexter: New Blood.” With another divisive ending stirring up debate among fans, “Resurrection” aims to continue the narrative and possibly act as the true final installment for Dexter. To ensure success this time, Showtime has enlisted several prominent actors to join the cast, with the most recent addition coming from HBO’s legendary fantasy drama, “Game of Thrones.

According to Variety, it has been announced that Peter Dinklage (known for his role in Game of Thrones) will be joining the cast of the upcoming series, Dexter: Resurrection. Joining him are a number of well-known actors including Michael C. Hall, Uma Thurman, Jack Alcott, James Remar, and David Zayas. The specifics of the plot for the Resurrection are not yet clear, but given the title, it appears that Dexter has miraculously survived his gunshot wound to the chest. In this new series, Dinklage will play Leon Prater, who is portrayed as a billionaire venture capitalist with a charitable image, but in reality, he hides a web of darkness and intrigue.

In the upcoming season of Dexter, we can anticipate that Peter Dinklage and co-star Uma Thurman will have significant screen time together. Thurman plays Charley, a former Special Ops officer now serving as Head of Security for Leon Prater. The storyline appears to be politically and socially relevant, suggesting the Dexter franchise has successfully revitalized itself yet again. Despite having another series currently running, Dexter is back with renewed vigor. Over the past few weeks, Dexter: Original Sin has gradually captured audience attention following a somewhat underwhelming premiere.

‘Dexter: Original Sin’ Is Taking Over the Conversation

Despite some initial skepticism among long-term fans who felt it was an unnecessary repeat, the show “Dexter: Original Sin” has successfully captured audiences with its intriguing season premiere. Set before the original Showtime series, Michael C. Hall reprises his role as the narrator (apparently due to the bullet wound incurred in “New Blood”), while Patrick Gibson steps into the title character as a younger version of the protagonist. Overcoming initial doubts, “Original Sin” has not only pleased long-term fans but also attracted new viewers. Previews from the current season have been trending on TikTok, suggesting that it may attract a new wave of “Dexter” enthusiasts.

One intriguing enigma from the first season of “Dexter: Original Sin” was who actually kidnapped and murdered Jimmy Spencer, leaving viewers in a state of shock. The series cleverly defied assumptions while staying true to its concept, also deepening the character of Dexter and his clandestine activities. As for whether there will be another season of “Original Sin,” that remains uncertain; however, fans can anticipate engaging content from the Dexter franchise in the near future. If Michael C. Hall’s portrayal of this beloved character reaches its end with “Resurrection”, it might open up an opportunity for Patrick Gibson to carry on the role for many seasons ahead.
