Eric Stonestreet and Peter Dinklage Formed Comedic Bond on Dexter: Resurrection

Making friends while talking about murder? That’s exactly what happened between Eric Stonestreet and Peter Dinklage on the set of “Dexter: Resurrection” on Paramount+. The two hit it off during filming, with Stonestreet sharing that they even sparked a comedic bond that he hopes will lead to future collaborations.

“Dexter: Resurrection” picks up after the events of “Dexter: New Blood,” where Dexter Morgan is presumed dead after being shot by his son. In this newest installment, Dexter wakes up from a coma to find his son missing, prompting him to head to New York City to search for him. Along the way, he encounters Leon Prater, played by Dinklage, and Al Jolly, portrayed by Stonestreet.

Stonestreet, known for his role on “Modern Family,” found playing a serial killer to be a new challenge but enjoyed bringing humor to the character. Meanwhile, Dinklage, famous for “Game of Thrones,” is gearing up for a stage production this summer.

Joining the talented duo are Uma Thurman and Neil Patrick Harris, along with returning cast members like Michael C. Hall. Stonestreet shared that being on set was intense but filled with laughter and unforgettable experiences, like acting alongside Hollywood legends.

Despite the tense setting, Stonestreet pointed out the importance of working well with others and learning from his co-stars. Watching Hall take on the responsibilities of being the lead actor also left a lasting impression on him.

The experience was rewarding on many levels, from forming friendships to honing acting skills. With a cast like this, “Dexter: Resurrection” promises to be a thrilling addition to the franchise that fans won’t want to miss.
