Big news for Dexter fans! Showtime has officially confirmed that Dexter: Resurrection will bring back a familiar face from Dexter: New Blood. This is a strong sign that even though Dexter tried to run from his past, it’s not going to let him go that easily.
Back in 2020, Showtime surprised everyone by bringing back the hit crime drama Dexter. The original series had ended in 2013 and left many fans disappointed with the way it wrapped up. However, the story continued with Dexter: New Blood, a 10-episode revival that gave the serial killer a fresh start in a completely new setting.
Michael C. Hall returned as Dexter, now living under a new identity and working a regular job. But of course, his dark past caught up with him. While many enjoyed the new direction, the ending of New Blood shocked fans—especially since Dexter was killed off after such a long wait for his comeback.
But now, Showtime is once again reviving the character in a new sequel series titled Dexter: Resurrection. This show will continue the story right from where New Blood left off. Dexter will survive his near-death gunshot wound and wake up in a hospital. From there, he will head to New York City, searching for his son, Harrison.
We still don’t know everything about the story, but one big update has been confirmed—actor David Magidoff is returning as Teddy, the cop from Dexter: New Blood. Teddy was not a major threat to Dexter, but now things could change. Dexter killed Teddy’s friend Logan and escaped from custody, which might push Teddy to seek justice.
It’s not yet clear whether Teddy will become an enemy or a possible ally. Since Iron Lake was a quiet town with not much crime, Teddy wasn’t shown as a top cop. But with new motivations, his role in Resurrection could be more important.
Fans are also curious if Angela Bishop, played by Julia Jones, will return. She was the one most determined to bring Dexter to justice and was last seen standing over his body. It would feel strange if she didn’t appear in the new series.

Apart from these returning characters, the show’s cast is full of big names. Dexter: Resurrection will feature actors like Peter Dinklage, Uma Thurman, James Remar, David Zayas, and Neil Patrick Harris, among others. With such a strong lineup, the show promises to deliver more intense and emotional drama.
Reports suggest that Dexter: Resurrection is planned as a multi-season series. However, with the high stakes this time, it’s unclear how long the story will continue or how Dexter’s journey will end. The filming has already been going on for a few months, and new cast members are still being added.
Fans of Dexter are excited but also curious. Can a man like Dexter really escape his past? Will his second comeback be the final one? Only time will tell.
