When you take on a role that somebody else made famous, it’s not easy. Patrick Gibson knew when he started playing a younger version of Michael C. Hall’s Dexter Morgan, a Miami serial killer, in Dexter: Original Sin, that risk is “farther to fall, in a way.” Hall “can’t even be turning in his grave,” because he’s still very much involved with the role. “It must be a weird thing to see somebody else step into that, but I have to say he was so generous and welcoming, I think because he was a part of it getting made.” What makes this origin story so fascinating is that we get to see a time when Dexter didn’t have his murders perfected. “He really is relying on his base instincts and the lessons that he’s picking up from just starting working in Miami Metro.” There’s also “a loneliness at that time of his life that I think was interesting and felt human.” And while he’s very much a psychopath, the audience is still rooting for him. “I think it’s that weird Robin Hood moral gray area.” Gibson is ready for season two. “So much happens in season one, but there’s also so much left unresolved.”
