Joining them are Cleopatra Coleman, Tre Hale, Domenick Lombardozzi, Jonnie Park, Ariana Guerra, Gabrielle Dennis, Michael Potts, Sophina Brown, Cedric Joe, and Jeff Pierre, adding layers of intrigue to the narrative.
Meanwhile, the beloved world of television is seeing familiar faces return. Actress Krysten Ritter is making a reappearance in Dexter: Resurrection for the second season run.
