By John Connor Coulston - November 3, 2021 08:22 am EDT

Dexter is back in the form of a new continuation series, Dexter: New Blood. On Sunday at 9 p.m. ET, the show — which is essentially Dexter Season 9 — will kick off with "Cold Snap," the first episode of this new chapter in Dexter Morgan's life. Michael C. Hall returns as the titular serial killer, with Jennifer Carpenter returning as a spectral version of Debra Morgan in his head.

Ahead of the highly anticipated release, Showtime dropped a batch of first-look photos from "Cold Snap." They not only show Hall and Carpenter on-screen again, but they also introduce a slew of new cast members. That list includes Julia Jones, Johnny Sequoyah, Steve M. Robertson, Jack Alcott, Fredric Lehne, Alano Miller and Clancy Brown. Scroll through to see the new images.
