The revival of the hit show Dexter enthralls its fans and supporters as they have been so ready for Dexter Morgan to kill again. The much-needed details go below, revealing the star-studded ensemble who will reprise the show for its ninth season and the release date!
Dexter’s release date and the filming timeline
Yes, what you heard is true: Dexter is returning for the ninth time. The new season announcement of the hit show shocked the fans, as questions raised in their minds on the show’s release date, and of course, the ones to kill.
With no hesitations, blood will spill again as the show is speculated to arrive sooner than expected. Hollywood Life broke down that the new season of the series will commence its filming and shoots in the early dates of 2021.
It comes after the news of Dexter’s revival in Oct. this year, made by Showtime Networks Inc.’s Presidents of Entertainment Jana Winograde and Gary Levine. The statement also comes after seven years since the show was put to an end in 2013 with season eight.
Dexter glazes a season nine premiere of the fall season of 2021 since the filming will start in early 2021. However, the fall 2021 release date is still tentative, as revealed by Showtime. With the agitating spike of COVID-19 positives in the US, production operation delays are highly possible.
Moreover, season 9 of Dexter bottles ten episodes, with fans and supporters hoping for more of it.
Dexter season 9 cast
Comicbook reported that Michael C. Hall, 49, will grace the show as the killer named Dexter Morgan. His return is the only announced cast member, and more stars that comprise the upcoming series’ new season will be announced latterly.
With Dexter reprising his role, it is still unclear if Deb, played by Jennifer Carpenter, 41, will return to the story. The series killed Deb tragically in the least season of Dexter. Digital Spy revelation: Rita, played by Julie Benz, 48, is still in the blurry vision to appear in the series, as she died in the last season also.
Dexter season 9 story plot
Dexter was presumed by viewers dead after his boat submerged during a hurricane in the finale episode of season 8. But, the killer is not dead, as he survived. He now lives as a lumberjack in Oregon, meaning he will kill someone soon.
Dexter’s season 9 will revolve around the life of Dexter 8 years after the finale took place. New and massive deaths will also occur in season 9 of the series, as revealed by the show's executive producer.
“He is more grounded than he’s ever been, but that dark passenger is a voice he cannot deny. This is Dexter. People are going to die,” the EP said.
Meanwhile, the trailer for the new season of Dexter might come in handy next year.
