Dexter: Resurrection Season 2 is slated to feature the return of Mia, a character previously thought to have been killed off. The report from Deadline indicates that Krysten Ritter will reprise her role in the upcoming season. Mia was introduced in the first season of Dexter: Resurrection as a fellow killer with whom Dexter Dexter initially believed he could form a partnership. However, Dexter soon realized Mia did not adhere to his code, leading him to frame her for a murder committed by his son, Harrison. Mia was subsequently imprisoned, and it was implied that she was murdered by a prison guard paid by Charley, Prater's bodyguard.
Unclear Role for Mia's Return
Details regarding Mia's specific role in Season 2 remain scarce. While it would be surprising if Ritter portrayed anyone other than Mia, given the show's previous use of twin twists, other possibilities exist. Some fan theories suggested Mia's death was a ruse to facilitate her escape from prison. Alternatively, Mia could appear in flashback sequences or as one of the spectral figures that frequently haunt Dexter, serving as an external manifestation of his conscience.
Expanded Villain Roster
Dexter: Resurrection Season 2 is also expected to introduce new antagonists. Brian Cox is set to portray the New York Ripper, an elderly serial killer who targets the families of his victims. He will be joined by Dan Stevens as the Five Borough Killer. Additionally, Kane Hodder and Chris Jericho are reportedly cast as victims of Dexter.
