The Dexter: Resurrection Season 2 official trailer is here, giving Michael C. Hall’s Dexter Morgan two dangerous new problems in New York City. Paramount+ has also unveiled new key art ahead of the season’s Friday, October 30, 2026, premiere, available exclusively with the Premium Plan.
The trailer arrives after September’s premiere-date teaser. This time, the focus is on the killers closing in on Dexter’s world—and on the increasingly difficult relationship between Dexter and his son Harrison (Jack Alcott).

Season 2 places Dexter between two killers: one with a long, notorious history and another making a terrifying new name for himself across New York. Brian Cox joins the series as the New York Ripper, while Dan Stevens plays the Five Borough Killer. Dexter also faces a less familiar challenge—a midlife crisis—just as Harrison continues his own pursuit of justice.
For a closer look at the new threats, see our earlier coverage of Brian Cox joining Dexter: Resurrection as the New York Ripper.
