The Dexterenaissance continues. The return of the infamous serial killer continues with Dexter: Original Sin, a Paramount+ with SHOWTIME series which will take us back to the ‘90s to uncover more of his origin story. The series stars Patrick Gibson as Dexter and Christian Slater (one of my personal faves) as Harry Morgan, Dexter’s adoptive father and, interestingly, a homicide detective. Molly Brown is also a part of the Morgan family as his younger sister Debra Morgan. We got some first-look photos a while back as well as a teaser (which you can watch further down the page) and now we have a full trailer for Dexter: Original Sin.
This trailer gives us a curtain call of sorts of the new cast, many of whom assaying roles familiar to those who’ve watched Dexter in the past. The entire series appears to be a flashback of current-day Dexter (aka “Inner Voice Dexter”) still played by Michael C. Hall on death’s door. Real Sunset Blvd vibes. In addition to the above listed cast members, the trailer tells us Christina Milian will play Det. Maria LaGuerta, James Martinez as Det. Angel Batista, and Alex Shimizu as weird horny crime scene tech Vince Masuka.
We also have a sneak peek at the series, thanks to this clip from CCXP.
As lame as it often is for prequels to spent a ton of time showing us how various characters we all know met each other, the cast for this is impressive.
Dexter says that he’s not a natural born killer but instead it took a village to lead him down his dark path. I must say, Gibson does capture the spirit of Dexter really well with his actions as we hear Michael C. Hall’s voice as his inner thoughts. Here’s a synopsis for Dexter: Original Sin:
Set in 1991 Miami, Dexter: Original Sin follows Dexter (Patrick Gibson) as he transitions from student to avenging serial killer. When his bloodthirsty urges can’t be ignored any longer, Dexter must learn to channel his inner darkness. With the guidance of his father, Harry (Golden Globe® winner Christian Slater), he adopts a Code designed to help him find and kill people who deserve to be eliminated from society without getting on law enforcement’s radar. This is a particular challenge for young Dexter as he begins a forensics internship at the Miami Metro Police Department. Patrick Dempsey, Molly Brown, James Martinez, Christina Milian, Alex Shimizu, Reno Wilson and special guest star, Sarah Michelle Gellar also star in this new series, with Michael C. Hall returning to voice the iconic inner monologue in Dexter Morgan’s head.
What Is the Release Date for Dexter: Original Sin?
Dexter: Original Sin will begin streaming on December 13 on Paramount+ with SHOWTIME.
