Dexter: Resurrection – Michael C Hall returns in new season, complete cast, plot & release date revealed
The Dark Passenger is back – and this time, Dexter's heading to New York with a mission that's personal, dangerous, and deliciously twisted. Dexter Morgan isn't done yet. Just when we thought New Blood closed the coffin for good, Dexter: Resurrection tears it right open. Michael C Hall returns in what Showtime is calling the most 'unpredictable chapter' in the iconic serial killer saga. The Dexter Resurrection release date has finally been confirmed as Friday, 11th July 2025, with a double-episode premiere on Paramount+, followed by a weekly release. And yes—this time, Dexter's not hiding in a snowy town. He's alive, dangerous, and loose in New York City. Dexter: Resurrection is made by Showtime but will stream on Paramount+. This is a smart move to grow the show's reach. It uses Paramount+'s large streaming audience. At the same time, it keeps Showtime's name and identity strong. This plan helps bring more fans to the Dexter franchise. 10 Biggest Reveals from the Dexter: Resurrection Trailer – Everything We Learned #Dexter What is Dexter: Resurrection about? After surviving that gunshot from his own son Harrison at the end of New Blood, Dexter wakes up in a hospital—alive, confused, and very much alone. His son has vanished, and his past is catching up fast. Desperate to find Harrison, Dexter lands in NYC where he crosses paths with Leon Prater, a billionaire with a disturbing obsession with serial killers. Played by none other than Peter Dinklage, this twisted new villain isn't just rich—he's dark, curious, and deadly. Prater's inviting the most dangerous killers for a little... get-together. Dexter's just one of the guests. 10 Biggest Reveals from the Dexter: Resurrection Trailer – Everything We Learned #Dexter As Michael C Hall told Vanity Fair, this series is more than just a comeback—it's a reset button. 'The ending of New Blood didn't sit right. This time, we're doing it properly.' Watch the Dexter: Resurrection Trailer The newly released Dexter Resurrection trailer delivers exactly what fans have been craving—tense music, shadowy alleys, blood spatter, and that classic Dexter monologue. We get glimpses of Harrison, possibly even darker than before, and a loaded stare-down between Dexter and Batista. The city's big, but it won't hide Dexter for long. Who's in the Dexter: Resurrection cast? The Dexter Resurrection cast is star-studded and absolutely killer: Michael C Hall as Dexter Morgan (back in full psychopathic glory) Jack Alcott as Harrison Morgan (still haunted, still dangerous) Peter Dinklage as Leon Prater (the chilling new billionaire villain) Uma Thurman as Charley (a former Special Ops officer, now head of Prater's security) David Zayas as Angel Batista (finally back in a bigger role) James Remar as Harry Morgan (Dexter's moral compass—sort of) Krysten Ritter as Lady Vengeance (a serial killer disguised as a seductive sommelier) John Lithgow as the Trinity Killer (yes, he's back from the dead—kind of) Jimmy Smits as ADA Miguel Prado (returning for a brief but powerful cameo) Eric Stonestreet, David Dastmalchian, Ntare Guma Mbaho Mwine, and more in mystery roles One heartbreaking update though—Jennifer Carpenter (Debra Morgan) won't return this time. She told People she's proud of what she did in New Blood and has now moved on. Dexter: Resurrection Behind the Scenes Filming began in January 2025, and the Dexter Resurrection release date just six months later shows how tightly this was executed. Michael C Hall shared a video from day one on set, saying: 'I'm on set. It's happening. Get ready to take another thrill ride with us.' Showrunner Clyde Phillips also confirmed that the show is structured to allow new viewers to jump in, calling it 'fresh' and 'fully formed.' But for the loyal fans—expect plenty of callbacks and hidden treats. What's Next for Dexter Morgan? If all goes well, this won't be a one-off. Phillips said the plan is to continue the story beyond this season, and Hall is fully on board. In his words: 'This isn't a final goodbye. This is just the beginning of something bigger.' The 'Dexter: Resurrection' set is busy. Peter Dinklage and Michael C. Hall were spotted working together on a scene. The Dexter universe is expanding. Original Sin, the prequel series, has already laid the foundation. Now Resurrection is picking up that baton—and sprinting into something far more ambitious. Dexter: Resurrection - Masala Moments to Watch For A showdown between Dexter and Batista—the one we've waited years for Peter Dinklage channeling pure chaos as a villain richer than God and just as arrogant Dexter and Harrison's twisted father-son reunion—can they bond... without killing anyone? Krysten Ritter's deadly alter ego may give Dexter a run for his money

Details Emerge in Murder of 'King of the Hill' Voice Actor
New details are emerging following the tragic death of Jonathan Joss, the King of the Hill voice actor who was fatally shot Sunday in San Antonio, TX following a heated argument with his neighbor. Joss was 59. As first reported by TMZ, Joss and Sigfredo Alvarez-Cega had been at each other's throats for years. But what actually set Joss off on the night in question was seeing the skeleton of one of his three dogs killed in a fire that destroyed his home. The home had recently burned to the ground after Joss used a BBQ pit to heat the home. TMZ reports that Joss seeing his beloved dog's skeleton set him into a rage, leading to him screaming at anyone in his direction. Apparently that led to an altercation with Alvarez-Cega, whom he had been beefing with for years. The altercation allegedly led Alvarez-Cega to retrieve gun at home before returning to Joss' location and fatally shooting neighbor reportedly jumped in a car and fled the scene. Police responded to a shooting in progress and ultimately arrested Alvarez-Cega mere blocks from his residence. Joss was pronounced dead shortly after. Alvarez-Cega has since been charged with murder and his bail's been set at $200,000. A GoFundMe has been set up on Joss' behalf. Joss had a distinguished voice acting career. He lent his voice for John Redcorn's character on King of the Hill. Redcorn was a Native American healer who has an affair with Dale Gribble's wife, Nancy Hicks-Gribble. Joss also acted on the big and small screen, with roles in Showtime's Ray Donovan, Paramount+'s Tulsa King and films like The Magnificent Seven.

Is ‘MobLand' returning for season 2? Everything we know so far
By Aman Shukla Published on June 2, 2025, 18:30 IST Last updated June 2, 2025, 11:57 IST Since its explosive debut on March 30, 2025, MobLand has gripped audiences worldwide, becoming Paramount+'s biggest global series launch with 8.8 million viewers in its first week. This British crime drama, created by Ronan Bennett and backed by Guy Ritchie's signature gritty style, dives into the ruthless world of the Harrigan crime family, led by the cunning Conrad (Pierce Brosnan) and Maeve (Helen Mirren), with street-smart fixer Harry Da Souza (Tom Hardy) navigating a web of betrayal, violence, and power plays. As Season 1 ended on a shocking note with Harry's stabbing and shifting alliances, fans are clamoring for news: Is MobLand Season 2 happening? Here's everything we know so far. MobLand Season 2 Renewal Status As of June 2, 2025, Paramount+ has not officially confirmed the renewal of MobLand for Season 2. However, the outlook appears promising. The British crime drama, which premiered on March 30, 2025, broke records as Paramount+'s biggest global series launch, attracting 2.2 million viewers on its debut day and 8.8 million in its first week. This unprecedented viewership places MobLand alongside top performers like 1923 and Landman , both of which secured renewals after strong debuts. While Paramount+ typically waits until a season concludes to announce renewals, positive signs abound. Potential Release Date for MobLand Season 2 While no official release date has been announced, we can speculate based on Season 1's timeline. Production for the first season began in November 2024 and wrapped in March 2025, with the premiere airing just days later on March 30, 2025. If Season 2 follows a similar schedule, filming could start in late 2025, potentially leading to a release in spring 2026—possibly around March or April.

Harrison Ford, Helen Mirren and, Of Course, Nicole Kidman Are Just Some of This Year's Emmy Contender Overachievers
Peak TV may be over, but it's still Peak FYC for quite a few players both in front of and behind the camera. Because we're no longer in the era of 22-episode seasons — once the rule, now the exception — the idea of exclusivity has been thrown out the door. That's why you keep seeing your favorite actors all over your TV screens, as there seems to be no stopping of some stars' work ethic. Fine, I'm talking about you, Nicole Kidman. If there was ever an MVP of the streaming era, it would be Kidman, whose output this season includes Netflix's 'The Perfect Couple,' Paramount+'s 'Lioness,' AMC+'s 'The Last Anniversary' and Hulu's 'Nine Perfect Strangers' (which is premiering too late for eligibility this cycle, but still). More from Variety Gender Binary Acting Awards: How the Indie Spirits Have Set the Tone and Why Asia Kate Dillon Remains Hopeful Despite Setbacks Ike Barinholtz on That Chaotic 'The Studio' Golden Globes Episode, Creating 'Running Point' Despite His Bulls Fandom, and How He Won Both 'Jeopardy!' and 'Millionaire' 'Andor' Season 2 Emmy Submissions Revealed in 23 Categories Including Directing, Writing and Four Guest Stars (EXCLUSIVE) Kidman is far from the only one. Of all the unlikely TV overachievers, Harrison Ford makes the grade this year for Apple TV+'s 'Shrinking' and Paramount+'s '1923.' Then there's Steve Carell in 'The Four Seasons' and 'Mountainhead'; Nathan Lane in 'Mid-Century Modern' and 'Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story'; John Goodman in 'The Righteous Gemstones' and 'The Conners'; Giancarlo Esposito in 'The Residence' and 'Godfather of Harlem'; Jon Hamm in 'Your Friends & Neighbors' and 'Landman'; Diego Luna in 'Andor' and 'La Máquina'; Lee Jung-jae in 'Squid Game' and 'The Acolyte'; and Jeffrey Wright in 'The Last of Us' and 'The Agency.' On the actress side, there's Kathryn Hahn in 'Agatha All Along' and 'The Studio'; Natasha Rothwell in 'How to Die Alone' and 'The White Lotus'; Catherine O'Hara in 'The Studio' and 'The Last of Us'; Michelle Monaghan in 'Bad Monkey' and 'The White Lotus'; Eva Longoria in 'Land of Women' and 'Only Murders in the Building'; Helen Mirren in '1923' and 'MobLand'; Allison Janney in 'The Diplomat' and 'Another Simple Favor'; Cristin Milioti in 'The Penguin' and 'Black Mirror'; Meghann Fahy in 'The Perfect Couple' and 'Sirens'; and Uzo Aduba in 'The Residence' and 'The Supremes at Earl's All-You Can-Eat.' And, listen, that is not an exhaustive list. It also doesn't include guest categories — where shows like 'The Studio' are so jam-packed with star cameos that virtually everyone can be considered a double contender. I'm perhaps most excited to see lesser-known names get their due. I don't know if anyone worked harder this year than O-T Fagbenle, and he stands out in each role – as Luke Bankole, June's husband in 'The Handmaid's Tale'; as Nico Della Guardia, the ambitious and smarmy new D.A. on 'Presumed Innocent'; and as Dennis, the mama's boy looking for a house with his wife on 'No Good Deed.' Those are three very different shows and, I've got to imagine, a treat for an actor to jump from one to the next. So I gave Fagbenle a call to hear about his strategy behind landing so many unique roles. 'When I first got into acting, I was doing theater, and you do so many different genres,' he says. 'In a single year, I would do Shakespeare to a physical theater piece, to a modern, gritty urban piece. That was par for the course in London. One of the things that I found funny about moving more into television was that the roles would become a bit same-y after a little while. With my agent, I said, 'Look, I really want to explore the diversity, both in genre and types of character. I'm just really excited that I got a chance to go back to kind of my roots.' Fagbenle has also become a bit known for his unique take on accents, particularly the drawl he gave his character on 'Presumed Innocent.' He laughs at how much attention he's received over that choice. 'The funny thing is, my natural accent changes all the time,' he explains. 'If I'm with my Nigerian family, it becomes one thing. If I'm with my London friends, it becomes another thing. So I'm always doing an accent. I was kind of like swinging the bat a little bit, but I was somewhat surprised just how interested people were in it!' And I'm sure there will be plenty more roles to come for Fagbenle to try on a few more.

As a teen, Soleil Moon Frye's breast reduction made magazine covers. It taught the former 'Punky Brewster' star that 'people want you to stay little forever.'
Soleil Moon Frye has been in the public eye since she was a mismatched-shoed little girl on TV's Punky Brewster in the '80s. At 48, she feels like she's finally coming into her own. 'When we're really young, we have so much of that spark of who we want to be, of what we want to do and then, as life transpires, oftentimes we go on these different roads,' Frye tells Yahoo Life for our Unapologetically series. 'I personally feel like so much of the journey in my life — and this moment — has been guiding me back to who I really am and who I always was. Yet it took the path less traveled to get there.' Frye's path as of late has led her to documentary filmmaking. She helmed Paramount+'s two-part docuseries The Carters: Hurts to Love You, an exploration of how fame, mental illness and addiction led to singer Aaron Carter's death in 2022, told from the perspective of his twin sister, Angel Carter Conrad. Before that, Frye exposed her own experience growing up in Hollywood and losing friends to addiction and suicide in Kid 90, which was released by Hulu in 2021. She's currently completing a documentary about singer Shifty Shellshock, a childhood friend and ex-boyfriend who died from an accidental drug overdose in 2024. The projects come amid a larger period of self-discovery for Frye. She and her husband of more than 20 years, Jason Goldberg, who share four children, divorced in 2022. After their split, Frye reconnected with Crazy Town frontman Shellshock (real name: Seth Binzer), whom she had known as a teen. They went on to date, but ended their relationship prior to his death. 'It's been such a journey getting to this moment in time, and there's been so much love, faith, pain, grief,' she says. 'So many experiences of peeling back the onion.' Frye tells me about some of those layers — from growing up in a world that felt way too comfortable having discussions about her teenage body, to coming into her own as a filmmaker. I'm so thankful to be doing what I love each and every day. It makes me emotional because I love, love, love sharing stories … and to share stories that help create meaningful conversations is truly a dream. [Plus, there's been my own] self-discovery — through Kid 90 and [my old] diaries and what that brought up for me, the documentary [Werewolf and the Waves] I'm working on about [Shellshock] and The Carters, [which] led me into deeper empathy and compassion around looking at addiction as a disease. Every step has led me to right here, right now and I'm really thankful for it. It's been a beautiful, heart-wrenching journey to get here. In my 20s and 30s, there was a lot of wanting to make other people proud. … I cared what other people thought. … [My 40s have] been that process of unlearning and going: I have to do this because I love it and it feeds my soul. For a long time, I cared about what other people thought. I was really fortunate to have an incredible foundation at home and amazing family and friends and I look at our journey of growing up and growing up in the business [as] so colorful. There was so much fun and joy within our friendships. Some of my friends have gone on to have these incredible families and really healthy, exquisite lives and some of my friends didn't make it out. Some had struggles with their families and some had absolutely beautiful, stable families. … When you take mental illness and addiction and you combine that with money and fame and all of these other elements, then that can really implode. So many young people globally are struggling in front of their screens, while somebody else is liking, disliking or calling them out. This is a global crisis. I think about what a sensitive, loving, beautiful heart this young man had — and what becomes that breaking point? That certainly made me look at my own life. I remember wanting to please people and that doesn't even have to be something that your parents or the industry puts on you. It's something that you may put on yourself. But when you layer that, it can become explosive. Right? I had gone through this rapid development so early on as a teenager and feeling that objectification, all those layers. I can't even imagine doing it under the microscope of social media. That's what young people are going through — and I don't think we've begun to scratch the surface on what that looks like and what that means. I know. It's wild because I had [a breast] reduction and so much of that was health reasons — my back, all these different things — and then I remember it made it look like I had [other work done]. People were like, 'Oh, you did this and this and this.' No! What?! But I think we've lived so often in this sensationalist society where we love to build people up, and then we love to break them down. It was so surreal, and so crazy. I think so often when you grow up — and this is something that I related to with Aaron — is that when you play a character [like Punky], people want you to stay little forever. It's like they want to remember you as that little girl or boy. Then we grow up. I know for me, I went through such an awkward stage while trying to figure out who I was, who I wanted to be, in such formative years. So, as we were speaking earlier about coming back into myself, it's been such an incredible journey. One of the most incredible things has been that they're like, 'Oh, mom's been on this ride too.' I think that as much as we communicate and share stories about the awkward stages and our bodies, I think so much of it is inside. It's so internal. So you can make changes to your body, but so much of the work is the internal part of it. Something that is most important to me is us having conversations and not brushing things under the rug and looking within to get to the root of our experiences. I live in the bath a lot of the time — and I walk a lot. The last few docs were so intense and I remember there were days when I'd be on Zoom and I'd be like: 'Excuse me' and I'd have to [step away] because of the things that I was seeing or hearing. It was just so emotional. So meditation, walking, those are the things that I that I most lean into — and then my kids' arms. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Soleil Moonfrye (@moonfrye) I feel like I'm graduating from my teens to my 20s. I'm entering my 20s. … I am still such a kid in so many ways. I have this joy for life and discovery and adventure and excitement that feels incredibly youthful — and at the same time, this incredible gratitude and appreciation for the experience. Sometimes I'll look at pictures of when I was in my teens and 20s, and I'm like, Look at that young woman and how beautiful and full of life she is. I really didn't see it at the time. I had so many insecurities. … I cared about what the world thought. I didn't have that level of self-love, so I wasn't really able to appreciate the beauty of what was. So I've really made it a point for myself, in this moment, that I really want to appreciate all the different versions of myself, so that when I'm 80, 90 or 100 years old, looking back, I can be like, Wow, you really were able to feel that moment and appreciate [it]. That's something that I work on on a regular basis. This interview has been edited for length and clarity.
