I mean, the finale WAS pretty bad…
Hall will probably forever be associated with playing the serial killer (in his obituary, he’ll be “Dexter star Michael C. Hall”), but that doesn’t bother him. In fact, he’s open to the possibility of playing Dexter Morgan again. “Every time I’m asked about [another season of Dexter]. I say, ‘Never say never.’ The next thing I know there’s an announcement on the internet saying, ‘He’s going to do it again.’ The way that show ended gave no sense of closure for people and a lot of questions unanswered,” he told the Daily Beast. “He seems to be in this self-imposed exile, he certainly didn’t ride off into the sunset. His sister died. It left a gnarly knot in some viewers’ stomachs. I stand by how that 8th season ended.”
The tragedy of Dexter is that “if he had kept on killing people he’d have been fine, but he gets married, he opens his imagination and heart. He has a real connection to people, and all those people are compromised or destroyed in some way. For it to be all tidied up after that would have not been honest. For him to simulate his own death and extricate himself from the context of his life made sense to me. As far as any more of that happening, it’s possible.” (Via)
