With Dexter: Resurrection<\/a> season 2 now officially happening, original star James Remar gives an emotional reflection on the sequel series’ renewal and what he’s looking forward to in the upcoming episodes. Following the shake-up of prequel series Dexter: Original Sin’s surprise cancellation after initially being renewed, Showtime confirmed on October 8 that the Michael C. Hall-starring Dexter: Resurrection would be returning for season 2<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The news of the renewal arrived over a month after Dexter: Resurrection season 1’s finale<\/a>, with the first season setting viewership records for Showtime while also maintaining impressive reviews from critics and audiences alike. Currently, Dexter: Resurrection season 2 maintains a 95% Rotten Tomatoes score, setting high standards for the Michael C. Hall and Jack Alcott-led crime drama’s impending return.<\/p>\n

In an interview with ScreenRant’s Ash Crossan on the IT: Welcome to Derry red carpet, Dexter: Resurrection star James Remar weighed in on his excitement to further work with Hall in season 2 as he prepares for his return as Harry Morgan, a role Remar has portrayed since the original series’ 2006 debut:<\/p>\n

“[I’m looking forward to] further development, further revolution, and more scenes with Michael. My scenes are all with Michael C. Hall, and I get emotional about it because we’ve been working together for close to 20 years. He’s my TV son. I have a real-life son, but Mike’s my TV son. I love him, and I look forward to working with him more.”<\/p>\n

Remar’s reflection on “further development” in Dexter: Resurrection season 2 likely refers to the internal growth Hall’s Dexter Morgan saw throughout season 1 amid advice, caution, and support from visions of his deceased father, Harry. As Dexter took on multiple serial killers and worked to rebuild his relationship with his son, Harrison (Alcott), his visions of Harry helped guide him through one of the riskiest, most transformative eras in his life.<\/p>\n

Harry and Dexter’s moments together were a highlight of Dexter: Resurrection season 1, so it’s all the more meaningful that Remar is teasing his excitement to expand on their scenes in season 2. With Dexter still finding himself quite solitary after stealing Prater’s boat and files on uncaught serial killers in the season 1 finale, more scenes speaking to Remar’s Harry are expected as he goes back on the hunt.<\/p>\n

While Remar spends all of his scenes with Hall due to Harry’s presence being Dexter’s mental projections of his late father, Resurrection season 1 allowed the actor to finally appear opposite Jack Alcott as Harrison, which is expected to continue in season 2. With Remar being absent from Showtime’s 2021-2022 limited revival Dexter: New Blood, instead being replaced by Jennifer Carpenter’s late Debra Morgan<\/a> as Dexter’s voice of reason, Resurrection season 1 marked a new era as Harry also helped Dexter navigate Harrison’s Dark Passenger.<\/p>\n

Production has yet to officially begin for Dexter: Resurrection season 2, so there’s still significant time to wait before Showtime confirms a release date. However, Hall recently confirmed that the writers’ room is assembling, which means the ball will quickly start rolling to build on the “evolution” of Dexter, Harrison, and Harry’s roles in season 2’s coming episodes.<\/p>\n
