Dexter fans might be up for some disappointing news! Crime drama Dexter: Original Sin, a title prequel to the show Dexter, which was initially renewed for the second season, has reportedly been cancelled by Paramount due to certain circumstances. This news has left netizens pondering about it and curious about what led to the drastic decision. Let's delve into more details.
Why has Dexter: Original Sin been cancelled?
Showtime had earlier announced a second season renewal of Dexter: Original Sin in April, six weeks after the 1991-based series. However, as per reports, the show had been on hiatus since production had wrapped, and no start date for the production of season 2 was ever scheduled.
Moreover, after the leadership changes in Paramount, the Dexter franchise was then shifted from Showtime to Paramount Television Studios under Matt Thunell.
