The conclusion of Dexter in 2013 left fans longing for more of the dark and complex tale of Dexter Morgan, portrayed by Michael C. Hall. The excitement is reignited with the announcement of Uma Thurman’s casting in the upcoming series, Dexter: Resurrection.

As reported by Deadline, Thurman will play Charley, the Head of Security employed by billionaire Leon Prater. With a career spanning decades, Thurman’s impressive performances range from action roles to dramatic portrayals, yet her television appearances have been relatively few. Notable film roles include Dr. Pamela Isley in Batman & Robin (1997), Cécile de Volanges in Dangerous Liaisons (1988), and the iconic Mia Wallace in Pulp Fiction (1994). Her critically acclaimed character, Beatrix Kiddo, from Kill Bill: Volume 1 (2003) and Volume 2 (2004), remains a fan favorite.

Despite Dexter’s apparent demise in the 2021 revival, Dexter: New Blood, the new series promises to explore his return. Variety highlighted a moment from San Diego Comic-Con in July 2024, where Hall teased about Dexter’s fate, stating, “Was it? I don’t know what I am authorized to say other than, it’s really cold out there.” This enigmatic comment adds to the anticipation surrounding the narrative of Dexter: Resurrection.

The series will see the return of familiar faces such as Jack Alcott as Harrison Morgan, James Remar as Harry Morgan, and David Zayas as Detective Angel Batista. Reviving a beloved series presents the challenge of balancing nostalgia with fresh stories, but Dexter: Resurrection appears poised to maintain viewer engagement through its mix of old and new characters. The character of Charley is expected to bring depth and intrigue, likely harboring secrets comparable to Dexter’s own.

While fans continue to clamor for a third installment of Kill Bill, they can look forward to Thurman’s portrayal of Charley in Dexter: Resurrection, premiering in June 2025 on Paramount+ with Showtime.
