Paramount+ shared the final trailer for the new series Dexter: Original Sin, featuring Patrick Gibson. Dexter: Original Sin is the prequel to the Showtime series Dexter starring Michael C. Hall, which aired from 2006-2013 and starred Hall as Dexter Morgan, a vigilante serial killer.
Original Sin follows a young Dexter (Gibson) as he transitions from “student to avenging serial killer” with the guidance of his father Harry (Christian Slater), with Hall voicing young Dexter’s inner monologue. Patrick Dempsey, Molly Brown, James Martinez, Christina Milian, Alex Shimizu and Reno Wilson also star in the prequel series, with Sarah Michelle Gellar set to appear as a special guest star.
The trailer shows Dexter learn the “code” designed to help him find and kill “the bad guys who escaped justice,” while Dexter must navigate his urges while beginning a forensics internship at the Miami Metro Police Department, where Harry is an officer.
