Introduction

The dark legacy of Dexter Morgan returns in Dexter: Resurrection, the gripping new series now streaming on Paramount+ Premium. Following the events of Dexter: New Blood, this continuation dives into the fractured world of Dexter’s son, Harrison, and reintroduces the original killer with a twisted new mission.

With the creative team behind the original hit series, a high-stakes storyline, and the return of fan-favorite characters, Dexter: Resurrection is one of the most talked-about thrillers of 2025.


What Is Dexter: Resurrection About?

Set in the aftermath of Dexter’s reappearance and presumed death, the series opens with Dexter Morgan awakening from a coma. His son, Harrison, has vanished and is now living in New York City, wrestling with the dark urges passed down by his father.

As Harrison battles the question of whether he’s destined to become a killer, Dexter sets out to find him—once again caught between fatherhood and bloodlust. Meanwhile, Harrison begins building a new life but soon realizes that escaping his past isn’t so easy.

The series revisits the psychological complexities that defined the original, but with a fresh generational twist and a dangerous new setting.
