Dexter: Resurrection will premiere this summer, with filming currently underway. Michael C. Hall will return as iconic serial killer, Dexter Morgan, while original showrunner, Clyde Phillips, will take the reins once again. Many fans were surprised that Dexter was actually alive, after his seemingly definitive ending in the limited series, Dexter: New Blood. Phillips took part in a Reddit AMA session last week and confirmed exactly why that controversial ending was retconned, and why the show is returning.
