‘Dexter: Resurrection’ Boss Talks Premiere Cameos, Uma Thurman’s ‘Scream’-Inspired Entrance and Why Dexter May Have ‘Met His Match’


'Dexter: Resurrection' EP Clyde Phillips on Dexter's return from the dead, Harrison's first kill, John Lithgow's and Doakes' cameos and Uma Thurman.

After surviving the shooting, Dexter is coma-bound and forced to wade through visits from three spirits from his (and the original show’s) past –– his frequent visitor Arthur Mitchell aka the Trinity Killer (John Lithgow), Miguel Prado (Jimmy Smits) and former detective Doakes (Erik King). Part of his motivation to set up shop is that a serial killer finding his victims from the pool of unlucky Big Apple drivers has earned the nickname Dark Passenger, the very personal name Dexter and his father long ago gave to his darker impulses. This is Harrison’s first solo kill, though you’ll recall he did help his dad carry out the deed once in “New Blood.” But this is the big leagues now, and he proves to be a quick study in the methods of cleaning up, even if his choice to dismember the body in the hotel’s kitchen will make you think twice about ordering room service next time.
