Dexter: Resurrection (2025)

Dexter Morgan awakens from a coma to find Harrison gone without a trace. Realizing the weight of what he put his son through, Dexter sets out for New York City, determined to find him and make things right. But closure won't come easy. When Miami Metro's Angel Batista arrives with questions, Dexter realizes his past is catching up to him fast. As father and son navigate their own darkness in the city that never sleeps, they soon find themselves deeper than they ever imagined - and that the only way out is together.

Unexpected Inspiration: The opening sequence of "Dexter: Resurrection" is a direct homage to the 1980s exploitation slasher film "The New York Ripper," hinting at the gritty and dangerous world Dexter now inhabits.
A New Ride: Dexter's mode of transportation in New York City is a far cry from his boat, the Slice of Life. He drives around in a stolen, camouflage-painted 1995 Ford Bronco, complete with UFO-themed stickers and a shovel and net strapped to the roof, adding a quirky and mysterious element to his character.
Cutting-Edge Tech: To create realistic driving scenes, the production team employed LED volume stages, the same technology used in "The Mandalorian." Michael C. Hall was placed in a real car on a soundstage surrounded by massive LED walls displaying ultra-high-resolution footage of New York streets, resulting in incredibly immersive visuals.
Original Sin Connection: A subtle Easter egg connects "Resurrection" to the prequel series "Dexter: Original Sin." Detective Claudette Wallace is seen reviewing old Miami Metro reports and stumbles upon articles referencing Captain Aaron Spencer, a character from "Original Sin," solidifying the prequel's place in the Dexter universe.
Real-World Skills: For a scene set in downtown Manhattan, the casting team put out a call for actual line cooks and a professional butcher to work as extras, adding a layer of authenticity to the show's depiction of New York City life.
