After 8 Long Years Dexter Returns

Published

on

After 8 long years of waiting, everyone’s favorite tormented serial killer Dexter is back to the small screen, courtesy of Showtime!

The panel featured moderator Kristin Dos Santos, Executive producer Scott Reynolds, Showrunner Clyde Phillips, Marcos Siega who directed 6 of the 10 new episodes, and Julia Jones as Dex’s new girlfriend Angela, and of course Dexter himself, Michael C. Hall!

So, what do we know about the new season of Dexter New Blood? Hidden under the name Jim Lindsay (a nod to the author of the book Darkly Dreaming Dexter the show is based on, Jeff Lindsay), Dex lives in the fictional town of Iron Lake, New York, where he runs a fish and game shop, surrounded by all sorts of knives and things. Dex’s girlfriend Angela is the first female chief of police, the first POC chief of police, she’s part of the Seneca Indian nation, all of which creates great tension between her and the town.

The crew talked about all the shooting and scheduling rewrites they had to go through, especially when the Covid pandemic shut down shooting in February 2020, how the taping schedule also had to work around the weather issues presented in Western Massachusetts too. Referring to the teaser trailer shown in the panel, Phillips informed the audience that the frozen lake and the cabin Dex is in is all real, built, and used especially for the show.

Michael C. Hall talked about wondering what Dex had been up to the intervening years himself, and his own frustration at the inexplicable ending season 8 left the fans with. “One thing I think was confounding about the ending is – Dex didn’t SAY anything to us. We were accustomed to listening to his voiceover, it’s a fundamental part of the show and the audience was kind of in on his secret and implicated as a result, and the fact that he just looked at the camera and didn’t say anything was like, what are we supposed to do with that? So that look to the camera (from the new teaser) is like ‘Hi, I’m back, hello again.”

And Phillips promised, “The ending of this season will be stunning, shocking, surprising, unexpected, and without jinxing anything I can say the ending of this new season we’re doing will blow up the internet!”

Dexter New Blood debuts on Showtime Sunday, November 7th, 2021 @ 9 PM ET!

 in Hall H at San Diego Comic-Con, Rick Riordan and Disney+ revealed that Daniel Diemer (“Under the Bridge”) will star as fan-favorite cyclops “Tyson” in the epic adventure series “Percy Jackson and the Olympians.” Diemer joins Walker Scobell (Percy Jackson), Leah Sava Jeffries (Annabeth Chase) and Aryan Simhadri (Grover Underwood) as a series regular. The Disney+ Original series from Disney Branded Television and 20th Television will start filming its second season next week in Vancouver.

Season two of “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” is based on the second installment of Disney Hyperion’s best-selling book series titled “The Sea of Monsters” by award-winning author Rick Riordan. In the new season, Percy Jackson returns to Camp Half-Blood one year later to find his world turned upside down. His friendship with Annabeth is changing, he learns he has a cyclops for a brother, Grover has gone missing, and camp is under siege from the forces of Kronos. Percy’s journey to set things right will take him off the map and into the deadly Sea of Monsters, where a secret fate awaits the son of Poseidon.

Diemer stars as Tyson – a young Cyclops who grew up all alone on the streets, and finds it difficult to survive in the human world.  Shy and awkward, with a heart almost as big as he is, Tyson soon discovers that Poseidon is his father, which means Percy Jackson is his half-brother… and that Tyson may have finally found a home. 

Diemer recently starred in the Hulu limited series “Under the Bridge” based off the critically acclaimed book of the same name and a tragic true story of a missing teen girl in Vancouver in 1997.
