Although shooting for Dexter season five began last month, the show's star, Michael C. Hall, won't hit the set until June. Partly because of his recovery after defeating Hodgkins Lymphoma, and also because he's wrapping up work on the feature film, East Street Bliss.
The film -- which began shooting this Spring and currently has no theatrical release date -- follows Morris Bliss (Hall, who reportedly wore a $10,000 wig for the film due to the radiation treatments he underwent), a 35-year-old New Yorker with no money, no job prospects, and who lives with his recently widowed father while he himself tries to cope with the death of his mother. However, Bliss' life gets turned upside down when he develops a relationship with a sexually precocious, 18-year-old daughter of a former classmate, forcing him to leave the boring yet comfortable day-to-day behind and look at the world through a new set of eyes.
That said, Hall is indeed due on the set of Dexter in June, at which time we expect the rumors regarding our favorite killer with a conscience to start flying in. If you need a catch-up on what's been reported so far, check out our Dexter spoiler page by clicking the button below.
