Uma Thurman‘s Dexter: Resurrection character, Charley, in Showtime‘s Dexter: Resurrection, may have gotten out of Dodge, taking her mother to safety, but she’ll be back. The series will count on Thurman’s participation in Season 2.
As a refresher, Charley is the former Special Ops officer who served as Leon Prater’s (Peter Dinklage) right-hand woman. Last season, after discovering Prater’s betrayal, Charley parted ways with the twisted billionaire and fled the city. Without Prater, will she be friend or foe to Dexter Morgan (Michael C. Hall)?
Thurman is the second casting announcement for Season 2, following our exclusive reveal that Brian Cox will be playing Don Frampt, better known as the elusive New York Ripper. His character is described as a serial killer who terrorized the City years ago. Though no longer active as a killer, he’s found a new way to live into his infamy by continuing to taunt the survivors of his long-ago murder spree.
From showrunner and executive producer Clyde Phillips, Season 1 of Dexter: Resurrection took place weeks after Dexter took a bullet to the chest from his own son, as he awakens from a coma to find Harrison (Jack Alcott) 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 easily. When Miami Metro’s Angel Batista (David Zayas) arrives with questions, Dexter realizes his past is catching up to him fast. As father and son navigate their darkness in the city that never sleeps, they soon find themselves deeper than they ever imagined — and that the only way out is together.
Season 1 also starred Ntare Guma Mbaho Mwine as Blessing Kamara, Kadia Saraf as Detective Claudette Wallace, Dominic Fumusa as Detective Melvin Oliva, Emilia Suárez as Elsa Rivera, with James Remar as Dexter’s father, Harry Morgan. Neil Patrick Harris, Krysten Ritter, Eric Stonestreet, and David Dastmalchian guest-starred as Lowell, Mia, Al, and Gareth, respectively.
The log line for Season 2 is under wraps.
In addition to Phillips, Dexter: Resurrection is executive produced by Hall, Scott Reynolds, Marcos Siega, Tony Hernandez, and Lilly Burns. Additional executive producers include John Goldwyn and Sara Colleton, along with Veronica West, Kirsa Rein, Tanner Bean, and Katrina Mathewson. Paramount Television Studios and Counterpart Studios produce the series.
Season 1 is available to stream on Paramount + with Premium Plan.
