Dexter: Resurrection Season 2 Unveils First Look at New Serial Killers Entertainment Weekly recently shared first-look photos of the new serial killers that will be introduced in the second season of Dexter: Resurrection. Dan Stevens is set to play the role of the Five Borough Killer, who will be one of the main villains of the upcoming season, alongside Brian Cox's New York Ripper. "He is killing in each borough to terrorize the city. In his own weird midlife crisis way, one of the things that Dexter has always wanted is recognition," showrunner Clyde Phillips teased. "At the end of season 1 of the original series, we have the scene where he's being feted with confetti and people cheering him on, and an airplane goes by with 'I heart Dexter.' As independent as he likes to think he is, he wants that recognition, and by the time the Five Borough Killer has killed one person, he already has the city in his grip. And that drives Dexter f***ing crazy, because nobody knows who he is." Meanwhile, The Last of Us star Gabriel Luna will be playing the role of the Sleepy-Eyed Strangler in a guest capacity. According to Phillips, the killer breaks into people's homes, night after night, turning over picture frames and moving furniture 'just enough to haunt them — until he finally does the deed that's made him infamous." What to Expect in Dexter: Resurrection Season 2 The second season of Dexter: Resurrection finds Dexter Morgan caught between two killers: one with decades of notoriety and a lifetime of kills behind him, and the other a fresh young face terrorizing New York in ways no one has ever seen. Meanwhile, Dexter battles a new and unexpected enemy: a mid-life crisis. Harrison continues his own pursuit of justice as father and son face their darkest chapter yet. The main cast includes Michael C. Hall, Jack Alcott, Uma Thurman, Ntare Guma Mbaho Mwine, Kadia Saraf, Dominic Fumusa, Desmond Harrington, James Remar, Dan Stevens, Bokeem Woodbine, Nona Parker Johnson, and Brian Cox. It is set to premiere on Friday, October 30, on Paramount+ only with the Premium Plan.
