by

As a dedicated fan who has been following Dexter Morgan since his debut, I must say that the return of this complex and captivating character is like a long-lost friend coming home. The intricate plot twists and the masterful storytelling have always been what drew me in, and with Dexter: Original Sin, it feels like I’m revisiting old friends while making new ones.

heads up: what follows may reveal key plot points from the first episode of Dexter: Original Sin, titled “And in the Beginning…

Stepping into the realm of cinematic critique, I must say that Dexter Morgan graced our screens once more with the unveiling of Dexter: Original Sin, a prequel series offering an intriguing glimpse into the formative years of our beloved serial killer. But fear not, dear fans, for the thrills are far from over! Next year promises to deliver another dose of suspense with Dexter: Resurrection, bringing back Michael C. Hall in all his chilling glory as he rekindles Dexter’s tale, continuing where it left off at the conclusion of New Blood in 2022. Thanks to the skilled hands of creator and showrunner Clyde Phillips, we now have a firm understanding of when filming for Resurrection commences and its anticipated release date.

At the onset of “Dexter: Original Sin”, we find Michael C. Hall urgently admitted to a hospital following a near-fatal gunshot wound inflicted by his son, Harrison, in the finale of “New Blood”. Remarkably, he’s revived using a defibrillator, marking the start of the series that delves into his early years with his father, during which he refines his murderous skills. This backstory, as stated by Phillips, allows for his character’s return in “Dexter: Resurrection”, set to commence filming in January 2024 for a release in June 2025 (as reported by Discussing Film).

Starting with him as our opening act will give us a smooth transition towards Resurrection once its time arrives. Principal filming for Resurrection begins in the first week of January, and it’s scheduled to air in June 2025.

At present, details about Dexter: Resurrection‘s storyline remain vague, leaving us uncertain about the path the series is choosing. Given that Morgan’s secret has been exposed for all to see, it seems challenging for him to carry on his activities as he has been accustomed to in secrecy. On top of this, his arrest and detainment by the police add another layer of complexity, leaving us wondering how they will navigate through these obstacles. We’ll have to wait until June to discover the answers.

‘Dexter: Original Sin’ Makes Old Things New Again

Just like any prequel series, there’s a risk of focusing too heavily on the past at the expense of introducing something new. However, that’s not an issue with “Dexter: Original Sin”, as it skillfully breathes life into familiar elements by weaving in intricate new details to Dexter’s narrative.

Previously, it was clear that he learned the code from his father, but the prequel provides a more detailed account of how this training unfolded and deepens our understanding of their relationship as depicted in the original series. For instance, in Dexter Season 1’s third episode, “Popping Cherry,” a flashback showed that his first kill was a nurse who was poisoning hospital patients, including Harry, who had suffered a heart attack. In the premiere of Original Sin, “And in the Beginning…”, we delve deeper into the story, building upon the existing lore while offering a new perspective on events.

As a passionate movie reviewer, I must say that the blend of fresh faces bringing our beloved characters to life has set an exciting tone for what appears to be an exhilarating new chapter in the saga of the enigmatic vigilante serial killer. Don’t miss out on the premiere of Dexter: Original Sin, now streaming exclusively on Paramount+ with Showtime, and make sure to tune in every Friday for a fresh dose of suspense!
