  • The Dexter: Resurrection cast welcomes The Suicide Squad actor David Dastmalchian.
  • Actress Krysten Ritter shared a photo with Dastmalchian on Instagram.
  • The new and returning talented cast excites fans, aiming to save the show’s reputation.

As a movie review enthusiast, let me share my excitement about the new addition to the star-studded cast of “Dexter: Resurrection.” This time around, we have an actor who previously graced the screen in James Gunn’s blockbuster, “The Suicide Squad.” The news was warmly received by one of the cast members, who shared a snap of them together, creating quite a buzz among fans.

In the series titled “Dexter: Resurrection“, Michael C. Hall reprises his role as Dexter Morgan, the infamous serial killer. The miniseries Dexter: New Blood aimed to offer a more gratifying conclusion to Dexter’s tale after the original Dexter series finale was met with widespread criticism. Regrettably, the ending of Dexter: New Blood also failed to impress fans. The showrunner, Clyde Phillips, has since rewritten the miniseries’ conclusion, which saw Dexter being mortally wounded by his teenage son and unmasked as the Bay Harbor Butcher. Now, Dexter: Resurrection will continue the narrative, and the cast is being expanded with big-name actors, the most recent addition hailing from the DC universe.

David Dastmalchian has been added to the cast of ‘Dexter: Resurrection’, taking on the role of Gareth. Details about his character are yet to be revealed. Krysten Ritter, another member of the ‘Dexter: Resurrection’ cast, expressed her excitement by posting a photo with Dastmalchian on Instagram, saying “Goth fam says hi – having a killer time with @dastmalchian”, hinting at potential screen-sharing between their characters.

Who Else is in the Dexter: Resurrection Cast?

In the upcoming series titled “Dexter: Resurrection“, Ritter takes on the role of Mia Lapierre, a famed sommelier rumored to be harboring a hidden secret as a serial killer. Joining her are several new faces such as Uma Thurman portraying Charley, head of security for a philanthropist character played by Peter Dinklage from “Game of Thrones“. Neil Patrick Harris is cast as Lowell and Eric Stonestreet as Al, who is suspected to be another serial killer. A few familiar faces will also return, including David Zayas, James Remar, and Jack Alcott reprising their roles as Angel Batista, Harry Morgan (Dexter’s deceased father who appears as the voice of Dexter’s inner monologue), and Harrison respectively. Unfortunately, Jennifer Carpenter will not return to the series as Debra Morgan due to her stating that she has “closed that chapter.

People might think Dastmalchian is joining ‘Dexter: Resurrection’ as another serial killer due to his past roles like Polka-Dot Man and Bob Taylor. However, he has also shown versatility with comedic and dramatic roles such as Kurt in the ‘Ant-Man’ movies and William L. Borden in ‘Oppenheimer’. So, it’s possible that Dastmalchian could take on a surprising role in the upcoming series.

While some viewers debate whether another “Dexter” series is necessary, others believe that “Dexter: Resurrection” could redeem the previously acclaimed show from its tarnished reputation due to less impressive later seasons and unsuccessful finales. The prospect of a skilled ensemble of new actors alongside familiar faces has certainly piqued fans’ interest, an attention that Paramount and Showtime are no doubt hoping will result in strong viewership numbers.

The revival of “Dexter,” titled “Dexter: Resurrection,” is set to air during the summer of 2025 on Paramount Plus, also available on Showtime.
