Dan Stevens is set to play a serial killer in “Dexter: Resurrection” Season 2, Variety has learned.
Stevens will appear in a series regular role in the second season of the Paramount+ Premium, playing The Five Borough Killer. The character is described as being similar to the Zodiac Killer, who “taunts the police with phone calls threatening the murder of innocent citizens. When he follows through with the awful deeds…the City and the Police are terrorized.”
Stevens is the latest new addition to the cast of Season 2, with Brian Cox set to star as Don Framt, also known as the notorious serial killer the New York Ripper. It was also recently reported that Uma Thurman is set to reprise her role as Charley in the new season.
Stevens broke out with his role in the hit British series “Downton Abbey,” with the actor going on to star in the critically-acclaimed show “Legion” at FX. His other TV roles include “Solar Opposites,” “Zero Day,” and the upcoming third season of AMC’s “The Terror.” In film, he recently starred in “Godzilla x Kong: New Empire” and is known for features like the live-action “Beauty and the Beast,” “Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga,” and “Cuckoo.”
He is repped by CAA, Julian Belfrage Associates, and Peikoff Mahan.

Hall executive produces in addition to starring.
