chosensparkles Posted Thursday at 02:31 PM Share Posted Thursday at 02:31 PM Sarah Michelle Gellar (Wolf Pack, Buffy the Vampire Slayer) will boss around a certain serial killer in training in Dexter: Original Sin. In a special guest starring role, Gellar will play Tanya Martin, the CSI Chief at the Miami Metro Police Department and Dexter Morgan's (Patrick Gibson) new boss. Quote The 10-episode original drama series from Paramount+ With Showtime, set in 1991 Miami, follows Dexter, a student who is refining his killer skills with the help and support of his adoptive father Harry (Christian Slater). In his dad, he finds solace and understanding, especially as his bloodthirsty urges grow and can no longer be ignored. As his only confidant, Harry teaches Dexter a code that's designed to help him find and kill people who deserve to die — all while avoiding getting caught by law enforcement. This is a particular challenge for young Dexter as he begins a forensics internship at the Miami Metro Police Department. This will be Sarah's first new acting project since Wolf Pack last year which got cancelled after 1 season due to the writers/actors strike last Spring/Summer https://deadline.com/2024/06/sarah-michelle-gellar-cast-dexter-original-sin-1235984477/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lion Posted Thursday at 02:53 PM Share Posted Thursday at 02:53 PM I've been saying she needs to board an established IP project for years! Hopefully she can build off from there, so excited 🤓 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GraceRandolph Posted Thursday at 03:08 PM Share Posted Thursday at 03:08 PM I've never watched the OG Dexter, but this is exciting for her. I've been wanting her to make a proper comeback for awhile. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffy Posted Thursday at 03:12 PM Share Posted Thursday at 03:12 PM She always picks bad projects since Buffy so I'm not going to have any expectations. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SinnerCity Posted Thursday at 05:35 PM Share Posted Thursday at 05:35 PM I'm happy she's doing what she wants, but she DESPERATELY needs a new manager that helps her return to form (if she wants to). I love my girl but she's committed to starring in terrible projects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inverted Posted Thursday at 05:45 PM Share Posted Thursday at 05:45 PM (edited) I think this is a good move. She should aim for guest spots and recurring roles in popular TV shows or supporting roles in streaming movies. I'm sure she'd get small offers and there's nothing wrong with that. She's been aiming for starring roles since The Grudge (her last hit) and they've all have been failures. She's probably not getting many lead role offers so she should change her strategy instead of taking lackluster roles. TV Shows - The Wonderful Maladys (not picked up) - Ringer (canceled) - The Crazy Ones (canceled before Robin's suicide) - Cruel Intentions (not picked up) - Wolfpack (canceled) Movies - Southland Tales - The Return - Happily N'Ever After - Suburban Girl - The Air I Breathe - Possession - Veronika Decides to Die Edited Thursday at 05:46 PM by Inverted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vegvisir Posted Thursday at 05:51 PM Share Posted Thursday at 05:51 PM Loooove SMG but I doubt this will be any good. She really needs a part in a season of White Lotus or something that will actually challenge her instead of these procedural dramas. Also this is the 3rd thing I've seen about this today that describes her joining the cast as "boarding" - what the f*ck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leptine Posted Thursday at 06:07 PM Share Posted Thursday at 06:07 PM The OG is a cult, this could be potentially good as well, sure it sounds already better than 'Wolf Pack', too bad it's just a guest starring role but it's a start for better roles hopefully.

Migs Posted Thursday at 09:40 PM Share Posted Thursday at 09:40 PM I love SMG but since The Grudge it seems like she has chosen only terrible projects to star in. Ringer was quite good and had potential, but the rest has been pretty weak. To make matters worse, recently she's aiming for a spin-off or revival of something. C'mon, girl! You're talented and can do better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spicy_TyTy Posted Thursday at 10:19 PM Share Posted Thursday at 10:19 PM She's been overdue for a successful project with longevity for so long, but her door isn't being knocked with such offers unfortunately. Always rooting for her though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
