Movieweb caught up with Dexter star Michael C. Hall and they managed to learn from him that the upcoming 6th season of the show will begin filming in May! It’s kinda crazy to me how it seemed like just yesterday that we were talking about the season 5 finale … and now we’re already at the point where the new season will begin filming. Happy, happy days ahead ;D

We recently had a chance to catch up with the actor who plays Dexter, Michael C. Hall while he was out promoting his new independent film Peep World, which opens in theaters on March 25th and also stars Sarah Silverman, and Rainn Wilson. We took the opportunity to talk to Michael C. Hall a little bit about Dexter and asked the actor when he begins shooting the sixth season of the series. “Not until May but it’s definitely happening.” We finished up by asking Michael C. Hall if he is excited to return to work on the series and revisit the character again. “Yeah I’m excited. Doing something for this long is a crazy proposition but with this at least it continues to evolve.”

As you may recall, back in December we learned that MCH and his Dexter co-star Jennifer Carpenter filed for divorce … so the upcoming 6th season will be the couple’s first time working together since their split. While I have no doubt that each actor is a pro, capable of not letting their personal lives affect their professional lives … it still has to be kinda crappy to have to work on a day to day basis with your ex-wife. Still, I am very VERY excited for the upcoming season of Dexter. I assume we’ll be hearing shortly about which guest star(s) will be appearing on the show. Woot!!
