Resurrection” is one of several spin-offs from the popular serial killer drama “Dexter,” which ran on Showtime for eight seasons between 2006 and 2013. A follow-up series, titled “Dexter: New Blood,” was broadcast in 2021, with Michael C. Hall once again playing the character of Dexter.

As a movie enthusiast, I’m thrilled to share that I’ve learned some exciting behind-the-scenes details about this upcoming series. The mastermind behind the scenes is none other than Clyde Phillips, who previously worked on “Dexter” and is now back to steer the ship as showrunner. Showtime Studios and Counterpart Studios are taking on the producer roles. I’m also part of the team as an Executive Producer, along with Scott Reynolds, Tony Hernandez, and Lilly Burns. Marcos Siega has been appointed as the producing director. Monica Raymund will be directing four episodes, while Siega himself will direct six for this series. Lastly, it’s distributed by Paramount Global Content Distribution. Can’t wait to see this series come to life!
