“Modern Family” Actor Eric Stonestreet Joins “Dexter: Resurrection”

Emmy winner Eric Stonestreet (“Modern Family”) has joined the cast of “Dexter: Resurrection.”

Deadline reports that he’ll have a four-episode guest arc as Al, a Midwestern man who’s believed to be a serial killer.

Currently in production in New York, the continuation of “Dexter: New Blood” is expected to premiere this summer on Paramount+ with Showtime.

Michael C. Hall will reprise his role as serial killer Dexter Morgan alongside David Zayas as Angel Batista, Jack Alcott as Harrison Morgan, and James Remar as Harry Morgan.

Peter Dinklage will play the season’s main villain, Leon Prater, a billionaire venture capitalist, with Uma Thurman as Charley, a former Special Ops officer who serves as his right-hand woman.

Krysten Ritter and Neil Patrick Harris will guest star. Other newcomers to the franchise include Ntare Guma Mbaho Mwine, Kadia Saraf, Dominic Fumusaand, and Emilia Suárez.

Original “Dexter” showrunner Clyde Phillips returns while fellow “Dexter” alumnus Marcos Siega serves as producing director. He’ll helm four episodes, with Monica Raymund (“Dexter: Original Sin”) directing the other four.

Based on Jeff Lindsay’s novel Darkly Dreaming Dexter, “Dexter” ran for eight seasons between 2006 and 2013. It was revived in 2001 with “Dexter: New Blood.” Hall returned to narrate as Dexter’s inner voice in the prequel series “Dexter: Original Sin,” which debuted in December.
