Sarah Michelle Gellar (Wolf Pack, Buffy the Vampire Slayer) will boss around a certain serial killer in training in Dexter: Original Sin. In a special guest starring role, Gellar will play Tanya Martin, the CSI Chief at the Miami Metro Police Department and Dexter Morgan’s (Patrick Gibson) new boss.
The 10-episode original drama series from Paramount+ With Showtime, set in 1991 Miami, follows Dexter, a student who is refining his killer skills with the help and support of his adoptive father Harry (Christian Slater). In his dad, he finds solace and understanding, especially as his bloodthirsty urges grow and can no longer be ignored. As his only confidant, Harry teaches Dexter a code that’s designed to help him find and kill people who deserve to die — all while avoiding getting caught by law enforcement. This is a particular challenge for young Dexter as he begins a forensics internship at the Miami Metro Police Department.
The cast also includes Molly Brown, James Martinez, Christina Milian, Reno Wilson, Alex Shimizu and Patrick Dempsey. Production is currently underway in Miami with Clyde Phillips at the helm.
“Sarah Michelle Gellar is a pop culture icon who perfectly rounds out our best-in-class cast featuring Christian Slater and Patrick Dempsey among others,” shared Nina L. Diaz, President of Content and Chief Creative Officer, Showtime/MTV Entertainment Studios & Paramount Media Networks. “We’re thrilled to have her return to the Showtime/MTV Entertainment Studios family and join the origin story of the Dexter franchise.”
Dexter: Original Sin is executive produced by Phillips and produced by Showtime Studios and Counterpart Studios. Scott Reynolds also EPs alongside Hall, Mary Leah Sutton, Tony Hernandez and Lilly Burns, with Robert Lloyd Lewis producing. Michael Lehmann will serve as directing executive producer.
