Summary

  • Brian Moser’s return in Dexter: Original Sin season 2 seems inevitable after Clyde Phillips‘ comments.
  • Clyde Phillips is building up Brian Moser’s world for future stories in the Dexter-verse.
  • Original Sin must tread carefully with Brian’s interactions to avoid upsetting the loyal fanbase.

The first season of “Dexter: Original Sin” on Paramount+ with Showtime has been a massive hit, leaving many to speculate about a potential second season. Although it hasn’t been officially confirmed yet, its popularity seems to make it an unavoidable possibility. Fans have gained unique insights into Dexter’s childhood with his brother, Brian Moser, before their mother’s passing. Moreover, Brian Moser resurfaced in the 90s timeline, and if a second season of “Original Sin” gets greenlit, series creator Clyde Phillips hinted at further exploration of the Ice Truck Killer’s future.

In the first season of “Dexter: Original Sin,” it came to light that Brian Moser had been moved from one foster home to another following the gruesome murder of Laura Moser, a traumatic event he had witnessed. In the 90s narrative, it was further revealed that Brian was indeed the ruthless serial killer being pursued by Harry Morgan and Maria LaGuerta. Yet, at the end of this timeline, the character of Brian Moser remained elusive, leaving open the possibility of his return.

Throughout the initial season of “Original Sin,” Brian Moser plays a significant role, appearing both in flashbacks from the 1970s and the 90s timeline. During a lunch with new acquaintances, Dexter, Angel Batista, and Vince Masuka, Brian Moser casually inquires if the seat is taken. At this point, neither Dexter nor the viewers realize that he is Dexter’s long-lost brother; however, as the season unfolds, it becomes clear that he indeed is, and he was attempting to reconnect with his sibling. As the season progressed, Brian Moser’s character was further developed, suggesting potential future storylines involving him. In an interview with comicbook.com, Clyde Phillips revealed that Brian Moser remains a key component of his plans should “Original Sin” be renewed for another season.

Absolutely! He’s a towering figure and plays a crucial role in Dexter’s life. Interestingly, he transforms into the Ice Truck Killer. I’m not sure if you spotted the hidden references, but the series is essentially an Easter egg hunt. It’s quite entertaining. Occasionally, we’d already script a scene, and then we’d think, hang on, let’s add a touch like painting Laura Moser’s fingernails. There’s another one that’s even more discreet, it’s very subtle. When Brian is playing bingo with Barb, his daubers, those marker things, are arranged in a pattern similar to Laura’s fingernails.

It appears that Brian Moser’s comeback seems likely based on Clyde Phillips’ statements, but it’s important to keep in mind the possibility of a spin-off titled “Dexter: Original Sin“. Given there are 15 years missing from Brian’s timeline within the Dexter universe, a standalone series focusing on the Ice Truck Killer could be more fitting for this iconic villain, similar to the upcoming solo show for The Trinity Killer.

Brian Moser’s World Is Being Built Up For Future Stories In The Dexter-verse

In that very interview, Clyde Phillips clarified the upcoming developments regarding Brian Moser – as discussed with comicbook.com.

As a movie enthusiast, I’ve come to realize that Brian, or as we know him in the story, Rudy, plays an integral role in Dexter’s life. We’re meticulously crafting his world, intertwining his existence with Dexter’s, and even hinting at connections with Harry, Dexter’s father, and his mother. However, we can’t bring both characters into the narrative. It’s a tough choice to make, but we must keep them separate. This decision, though painful for Brian, helps us understand why he transforms into the character we see. The scenes where this is revealed are heart-wrenching and serve as a testament to Brian’s resilience in the face of adversity. Unfortunately, the system failed him, leaving him with a destiny that was seemingly predetermined.

In a nutshell, Brian significantly contributes to Harry and Dexter Morgan’s history in the show, but it’s crucial for Original Sin to navigate carefully to prevent straying from the established narrative. Some viewers might feel that Brian’s actions towards Harry exceeded what was portrayed in the original series, potentially causing dissatisfaction among loyal fans. For instance, if it turns out that Brian was responsible for Harry’s death, this could drastically alter the storyline and not necessarily for the better. However, it’s likely that Harry’s eventual demise won’t align with what Dexter and Debra Morgan initially believed, but making Brian the one to take Harry’s life wouldn’t seem fitting because, if he had done so, he would have probably hinted at this during their first encounter in the original Dexter series.
