Dexter Morgan’s little underground vigilante operation is about to reopen for business.
Production on Dexter‘s sixth season gets underway at month’s end — ahead of a likely September premiere — and TVLine has an early look at the new blood being brought in to fill the void left by Julia Stiles, Peter Weller and Co.
Among the three recurring roles being cast are…
| Jamie: Described as an outgoing and fun Latina in her mid-20s, this Florida native relocates to Miami for grad school.
| Chicago Mike: New thirtysomething African-American homicide detective who possesses a finely turned BS detector. The Windy City native does not play well with Dexter others.
| Louis: A buddy of Masuka’s (C.S. Lee) who joins MMP as a new lab intern. Role calls for a Caucasian actor in his 30s who is “attractive in his own way.”

Does the first line hint that Jamie is a new Lumen?
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping these characters aren't just new versions of old characters because that is what they are sounding like.
ReplyDeleteChicago Mike reads like another Doakes. :(
ReplyDeletePlease, Dexter. No more Doakes.
Why does this show keep writing off perfectly decent characters? They should seriously just bring back Julia Stiles instead of regurgitating character types (i.e Chicago Mike). I hope these characters prove to be much more interesting than they sound. And I doubt Jamie is the new Lumen - Dex is way too old to be dating a twenty-something grad student, haha. Maybe she's a CrimJ major writing some kind of crime-related thesis? I'm also assuming that none of these are the "guest star" since that information is typically not released until much later concerning this show.
ReplyDeleteUgh, totally.
ReplyDeleteI hope the Jamie character is more in the story arch for batista. His character needs more plot and it would be a good idea to keep branching out into other big stories that just don't include dexter. Of course, Dexter would have the main story as always, but the detectives need their own juicy drama. I mean come on....Masuka came close when he saw Dexter's wife kissing the guy next door. Need more!!
