Christian Slater es el padre de Dexter en la historia de origen del asesino en serie más carismático de la televisión
Christian Slater is the father of 'Dexter' in the origin story of the most charismatic serial killer on television.
Patrick Dempsey ('Grey's Anatomy') and Sarah Michelle Gellar ('Buffy') complete the attractive cast. Michael C. Hall will do the voice-over.
Is a serial killer born or made? According to Dexter Morgan, it's the second option. SkyShowtime has released the trailer for Dexter: Original Sin, the prequel that tells the origin story of the most famous TV 'serial killer'.
Set in Miami, in 1991, the series follows Dexter as he transitions from student to a vengeful serial killer. With the guidance of his father, Harry, when his bloodthirsty impulses can no longer be ignored, Dexter must learn to channel his inner darkness.
Accepting that his murderous instincts are uncontrollable, Harry will teach Dexter a code designed to help him find and kill people who deserve to be removed from society. This will pose a special challenge for young Dexter as he begins his forensic practices at the Miami Police Department.
These events take place 15 years before the original series. 1991 was the year in which Dexter committed his first murder, when he was 20 years old, as introduced in the canon by an episode of the first season, although the crime was never seen on screen.
Actor Patrick Gibson portrays Dexter in the new series, in which Michael C. Hall returns to provide the voice-over, while Christian Slater plays his father, Harry Morgan. Molly Brown completes the family as Dexter's sister, Deb.

Christina Milian is the new Maria LaGuerta, James Martinez is Angel Batista, and Alex Shimizu plays the young version of Vince Masuka. Patrick Dempsey will be Captain Aaron Spencer and Sarah Michelle Gellar as Dexter's boss, Tanya Martin.
"I am a killer, but I wasn't born this way," says Hall's voice in the trailer. "My story made me, the people around me. It takes a village to raise a killer."
Clyde Phillips, the showrunner for the first four acclaimed seasons of the original series and the sequel released in 2022, is back at the helm of this prequel which is currently wrapping up production on the first season of 10 episodes in Los Angeles.
The premiere date on SkyShowtime will be announced soon.
