Summary

  • Filming of Dexter: Resurrection is underway, primarily in New York, but a recent leak hints at a possible return to Miami.
  • A return to Miami, a beloved setting, is desired by fans, with potential flashback or present-day scenes not ruled out.
  • Possible future seasons of Resurrection could see Dexter back in Miami, facing repercussions for his crimes, bringing the story full circle.

Title character Dexter, the infamous serial killer with a moral code, miraculously survives a chest gunshot wound in Iron Lake, but the details about what follows are unclear. Filming is taking place in the New York region at present, though rumors hint that some parts of the sequel series might shift back to Miami, where Dexter’s murderous past originated.

This new development has fans eagerly anticipating the potential comeback of Dexter to his original setting, given that the prequel series, “Original Sin,” was based in Miami during the 1990s. As Miami serves as a significant character in the Dexter universe, a return is highly anticipated. But, the specific nature of this return remains uncertain.

A New Casting Call For Dexter: Resurrection Strongly Hints At A Return To Miami

In a twist from his usual Miami backdrop, Dexter Morgan, famously associated with the city, now dwells in Iron Lake, upstate New York. This change came about when the spin-off series, “New Blood,” premiered in 2021, following the staged death of Dexter in the final episode of the original series in 2013. Interestingly, production for the sequel series, “Resurrection,” is happening in New York, hinting at a primary setting there. However, a recent casting call by Dexter Daily for Latino and Latina actors to portray Miami Lounge Patrons in an upcoming scene suggests that some scenes may still be set in Miami, despite being filmed in New York City on February 27, 2021.

The Miami Set Scene Could Be A Flashback Or A Present Day Event And Other Scenes Set In This Location Can’t Be Ruled Out

Fans are eager to see Dexter return to the modern-day Miami landscape, but so far, only interior scenes have been confirmed. The possibility of exterior shots set in present-day Miami remains open, as the characters Joey Quinn and Vince Masuka continue their work at Miami Metro Homicide. Although it hasn’t been officially announced for Resurrection, a return to Miami seems likely. The offices of Miami Metro were constructed for Original Sin, albeit with a 90s aesthetic; updating the decor could easily transform them into today’s setting.

In the upcoming series “Resurrection,” David Zayas will reprise his role as Angel Batista and this time, he’s a regular cast member. Given that Batista is on a mission to bring Dexter to justice for his atrocious acts, it’s likely we’ll see most of these scenes unfold in New York City. Nevertheless, there’s a chance Batista might revisit Miami during the series. Michael C. Hall, in an interview with Variety, revealed that “Resurrection” is planned for multiple seasons, hinting that the sequel may eventually return to Miami. Many viewers are eagerly awaiting a satisfying conclusion to Dexter’s story, which could potentially involve him facing the death penalty in Miami again.
