Chronology
Miami, 1991
Unable to ignore his bloodthirsty urges any longer, young Dexter Morgan must learn to channel his inner darkness as he goes from student to vengeful serial killer under the tutelage of his father Harry. Christian Slater is older than James Remar when Dexter (2006) first premiered.
Next up is Dexter: Rebirth (2025)
I was very skeptical since most modern remakes or prequels/sequels these days are just plain bad. However, I was immediately surprised.
The actress they hired looks nothing like her and can’t get a single line right
It started with the introduction to the series: they did a very good job with casting and the actor playing young Dexter could pass as a real son. In fact, all the characters are pretty well cast, except for the character “Deb”, who is pretty awful.
They wrote her dialogue well, but the actress doesn’t deliver it with the right attitude or timing
However, this is only a minor distraction as it’s generally worth a few more episodes to see if they screw things up or not. Refresh your watch list with the latest selection of streaming movies and TV shows coming to Paramount+ this month.
