UNTITLED DEXTER TRINITY KILLER PROJECT (Showtime) - Co-creators Clyde Phillips and Scott Reynolds have indicated the spin-off series remains in the works following a development room earlier this spring.

We were writing that while shooting Original Sin, so that's fairly busy. We begin shooting [Resurrection] in January and it will air in June 2025." (Deadline.com, 12/23)
