Deadline confirmed that John Lithgow, 79, will return as Arthur Miller, aka the Trinity Killer, in the Dexter sequel series Dexter: Resurrection at Showtime. The outlet also reported that Jimmy Smits will reprise his character, Miami Assistant District Attorney Miguel Prado.

Showtime revealed that the first two episodes of sequel series Dexter: Resurrection will drop on Paramount+ with Showtime two days before premiering on the cable network. The two-episode premiere will be available on streaming and on demand starting July 11, and will air at 8 p.m. EDT July 13 on Showtime.

Dexter: Resurrection stars Michael C. Hall as he reprises his role as serial killer Dexter Morgan alongside David Zayas as Angel Batista, Jack Alcott as Harrison Morgan, James Remar as Harry Morgan, and David Magidoff as Teddy Reed.

Peter Dinklage will play the season’s main villain, Leon Prater, a billionaire venture capitalist, with Uma Thurman as Charley, a former Special Ops officer who serves as his right-hand woman. Krysten Ritter, Neil Patrick Harris, Eric Stonestreet, David Dastmalchian, and Steve Schirripa will guest star. Other newcomers to the franchise include Ntare Guma Mbaho Mwine, Kadia Saraf, Dominic Fumusaand, and Emilia Suárez.

“Dexter” ran for eight seasons between 2006-2013, and was revived in 2021 with “Dexter: New Blood.” Hall returned to narrate as Dexter’s inner voice in the prequel series “Dexter: Original Sin,” which debuted in December. Original “Dexter” showrunner Clyde Phillips returns to helm the series, which is currently in production in New York. Dexter: Resurrection is expected to premiere this summer on Paramount+ with Showtime.
