Revivals have become a common occurrence in the past couple of years, with more and more shows getting back on television after previously being canceled or finished. One of the shows that fans would love to see getting this treatment is Showtime’s crime drama Dexter, and that might even happen one day if it’s up to the series’ star Michael C. Hall.
In a recent interview, Hall discussed the possibility of bringing back Dexter, saying that he is opened to the idea but that there are no plans for this to happen soon.
“Every time I’m asked about this I say, ‘never say never,’” Hall told The Daily Beast. “The next thing I know there’s an announcement on the internet saying ‘he’s going to do it again.’ The way that show ended gave no sense of closure for people and a lot of questions unanswered. He seems to be in this self-imposed exile, he certainly didn’t ride off into the sunset.”
Michael C. Hall also sad that there “different possibilities” have been explored in the past, but that neither of them materialized.
“There have been different possibilities that have come up. They haven’t felt worth doing. But there’s still something potentially there. But there are no immediate plans to do that,” the 47-year-old actor added.
Dexter premiered in 2006, focusing on forensic technician Dexter Morgan (Hall) who leads a secret life of a serial killer who hunts criminals who have managed to trick the justice system. The series was a hit with both the audience and the critics, receiving a total of 23 Primetime Emmy Awards nominations.
