“I love the concept of the Dark Passenger and being invited into Dexter’s psyche,” Carpenter revealed during Showtime’s TCA virtual presentation (via Deadline).
The revival is set 10 years after Dexter Morgan went missing in the eye of Hurricane Laura.
The character will not be returning as the Deb we know and love, however, but instead as Dexter’s new Dark Passenger in an “imaginary iteration of Debra.”
In the premiere, Harrison has tracked down his father in a “sleepy New York town and wants to rejoin his life.”
