Dexter starring Michael C. Hall took the world by storm after airing back in 2006. The show lasted 8 seasons and followed the life of  Hall’s character, Dexter, who was a deeply damaged serial killer that murdered other serial killers.

After the disappointing ending to season 8, it was announced that season 9 will be airing this Fall and it will take place directly after the events of season 8. Original showrunner Clyde Phillips will be involved in the revival. Phillips left the show after Season 4, many of whom considered that the starting point for the show’s decline in quality.

Many fans have also been wondering if any of the original cast will be reprising their roles for the upcoming season. Dexter actor James Remar previously stated that the original cast won’t be returning for the next season. However, that was contradicted by Jamie Chung, who stated that the cast from the original seasons will be making a return.

It was also previously reported that John Lithgow will be making his return to the series as the Trinity Killer and Jennifer Carpenter was also said to reprise her role as Debra Morgan.

Showtime hosted a virtual panel for the upcoming revival during Comic-Con@Home 2021, where Clyde Phillips confirmed that original characters from the show will be returning. He also stated that people’s brains will explode when they see who makes a return.

“Obviously I have to be a little bit coy about this, but I will say there will be some returning cast members from the original series that will make some people’s brains explode.”

Dexter: New Blood is set to release on November 7th of this year on Showtime. We will have to wait and see whether it will right the wrongs of season 8 or not.
