Hearing Michael C. Hall’s voice as Dexter again felt so good! Showtime has unveiled the official first-look trailer of ‘Dexter: Original Sin’, serving as a prequel entry to Hall’s original series, which ran from 2006 to 2013. Set in 1991 Miami, the prequel series will bestow a deeper look at the young protagonist as he commits his first kill. His bloodthirsty urges start to get the better of him. But he must learn how to control and tame his inner darkness. Moreover, the show will also explore his forensics internship days at the Miami Metro Police Department.
