BEHIND THE STREAMS
James Remar and Michael C. Hall in Dexter: Resurrection
Everyone's favorite serial killer is back from the dead in the highly anticipated premiere of DEXTER: RESURRECTION. Picking up after Michael C. Hall's titular character takes a bullet for his son Harrison (played by Jack Alcott) in DEXTER: NEW BLOOD, the latest iteration of the serially thrilling story will include a few familiar faces - most notably David Zayas, who returns to play the beloved Angel Batista.
In DEXTER: RESURRECTION, Zayas is stepping back into Detective Angel Batista's shoes as a series regular. "The integrity and heart in Batista has just gotten stronger, and life experience along with new revelations have made him that much more focused on the task at hand," said Zayas. "It felt amazing to go back to this character after so many years - especially with all the new information that he's learned. We have the best crew working on this show and working with everyone again reminded me why this show is so special."
A younger Batista was recently introduced in the 2024 prequel series, DEXTER: ORIGINAL SIN, which shed more light on the beloved character, both for fans and for Zayas. "James Martinez did such a great job portraying a younger Angel Batista. It was great to watch his interpretation, and it actually helped me understand Batista that much more."
The fan-favorite detective has always been close to the truth about Dexter so will he finally confront what he might have missed in this revival? "I feel there is no other option but to confront the absolute truth of what he has missed after so many years," explains Zayas. "How he manifests that information is part of the exciting season that the viewers will share with Batista."
Head over to Paramount+ to catch up on all your favourite episodes of DEXTER* before the chilling story continues with DEXTER: RESURRECTION* on July 11.
IN THE SPOTLIGHT
Get ready to explore new galaxies this summer when the U.S.S. Enterprise returns to Paramount+ with the season three premiere of STAR TREK: STRANGE NEW WORLDS. We reconnect with the crew while they're still under the command of Captain Pike as they face the conclusion of season two's harrowing encounter with the Gorn. But new life and civilizations await, including a villain that will test their grit and resolve. An exciting twist on the classic Star Trek, season three takes characters both new and beloved to new heights.
We had a chance to chat with series newcomer and Scottish actor Martin Quinn, who portrays the brilliant, quick thinking Lieutenant Montgomery "Scotty" Scott, to find out more about his thrilling adventures on and off screen since joining the series.
Following Scotty's epic debut in the season two finale, what has the experience been like to return as a series regular and bring such an iconic character back to the screen?
It's been great fun bringing Scotty back on screen - first of all, the writers have been so gracious allowing me to suggest my authentic Scottish phrasing. The casting department also really took the pressure off early on by encouraging me to bring myself to the role rather than emulate what came before. I have to say, being a series regular this time around has made me enjoy it even more. You feel part of the team - a cog in such a well-oiled machine (oh, that rhymes!). You develop a shorthand, not just with the cast or writers, but with our amazingly versatile crew. As a result, I've become so much more free and relaxed on set. I can confidently play around with the character and really sink my teeth in. I just hate days when I'm not filming and someone else is...I get the worst FOMO. It feels like I've been benched and I'm just waiting to get back on the pitch.
What can you share about Scotty's storyline this season that you're excited for fans to see?
Even though he wouldn't like to admit it, Scotty's confidence has taken a hit. He's new on this ship and eager to prove himself but being the newbie isn't easy - especially with your old teacher breathing down your neck. That would be daunting for anyone. And with everything he went through at the end of season two, I think he's got a long way to go before he becomes the miracle-worker we all know and love from The Original Series. What's nice is that, as I've been finding my feet as a member of this well-established cast, Scotty has also been finding his feet as part of his crew. So, we had a lot more in common than I initially thought. I mean, I'm an idiot compared to Scotty but there are some similarities beyond just our accent - and that's been nice. I hope the audience enjoys the journey as much as I did.
Get to the ship! The new season of STAR TREK: STRANGE NEW WORLDS premieres July 17 with two episodes. New episodes will be available to stream every week, exclusively on Paramount+.

THE GOATS' PICKS OF THE MONTH - JULY EDITION 🐐
It’s me. The Goat.
Your official guide for movie marathons, series binges and taste tester of… everything (I’m a goat pal).
I’ve spent the past month in the Paramount+ vault… literally, got locked in, don’t have opposable thumbs, had to wait for someone to let me out. You ever smell a goat after a month in vault? Not pretty…
Anyways, here’s what’s hot this July:
The Oceans Franchise (Now Streaming)
The heists…flawless. The wardrobes…impeccable.
The level of charm…goat-like.
Q: Can you spoil a franchise that’s 20 years old?
This franchise has more twists than a giant pretzel, man I’d kill for one of those right now. And some hay.
Community (Now Streaming)
Quick wit. Sharp writing. Great ensemble cast.
It’s meta, meaningful, and funnier every time you watch it.
The Naked Gun Franchise (Streaming Tuesday, July 8)
Sometimes you just want something profound...
Till then, I’ll be streaming, snacking, and yelling at the screen when someone goes to investigate a weird noise.
Stream smarter. Follow the Goat on Letterboxd.
