Dexter Season 4,Episode 12 Extended Scene
"This Is It"
Deb (Jennifer Carpenter) confronts Dexter (Michael C. Hall) with shocking news.
Julia Stiles is joining the cast of Dexter for the series' upcoming fifth season, Showtime announced earlier this week.
The 29-year-old actress will guest-star in 10 of the 12 episodes, playing a "mysterious woman who forms a special relationship with Dexter" (Michael C. Hall) in the wake of his wife's death.
Known for her roles in 10 Things I Hate About You, Save the Last Dance, and the Bourne films with Matt Damon, Stiles most recently appeared on Broadway in a 2009 production of David Mamet's Oleanna.
The new season of Dexter begins shooting this month (June 2010) and will premiere this September on Showtime.
TVGuide.com also confirmed recently that Julie Benz will return for the Season 5 premiere of Dexter.
Benz played Rita Bennett, the wife of serial killer Dexter Morgan, until the Season 4 finale, when she was murdered by the Trinity Killer (John Lithgow).
About Benz's return, executive producer Sara Colleton says,
"Bringing her back in a flashback or visionary way sort of steps on our use of Harry [James Remar]," in a reference to Dexter's dead Dad, who appears and has conversations with his son Dex, every once and again.
"We want to be very, very specific about that and not get gimmicky, because it would become too much of a device," says Colleton.
Showtime's statement on Benz's return is sort of vague as to how exactly the very dead Rita will appear.
"As Dexter grapples with the reality of the death of his wife and the realization that he is now a single father, the presence of Rita Bennett will help him deal with his newfound feelings of loss and grief — emotions that Dexter Morgan has never really felt before." is the official Season 5 description from Showtime.
