How Old Harrison Is In Dexter New Blood

Here’s how old Dexter’s son Harrison Morgan is in the New Blood revival. When Dexter first debuted, the titular forensic analyst by day and serial killer by night seemed fully convinced that he was incapable of ever feeling actual love. After all, he appears to be a sociopath, a mental condition common of those able to take the lives of others. The only thing keeping Dexter on even a semblance of a righteous path was the code instilled in him by his late adoptive father Harry, which sees Dexter feed his urge to kill by taking out those just as bad or arguably even worse than himself.

From early on in the show, Dexter maintained an outwardly romantic relationship with a single mother named Rita (Julie Benz) – who’s sadly not part of Dexter: New Blood’s returning cast, likely because of her untimely death in season 4. However, to Dexter, Rita was simply part of the mask he wore to fit in with polite society. Yet, Rita somehow managed to penetrate Dexter’s dark heart, and he eventually grew fond of her. This finally developed into actual love — or if not love as most people know it, the closest someone like Dexter could get.

This love resulted in Dexter and Rita having a son named Harrison, and living a happy family life with their three collective children. That is until Arthur Mitchell, aka the Trinity Killer, took revenge on Dexter by killing Rita. In the infamous season 8 finale, Dexter faked his death to start a new life as a lumberjack, leaving Harrison in the care of his girlfriend — and fellow serial killer — Hannah. How old Harrison is in the Dexter: New Blood revival is a surprisingly tricky question, but the answer is most likely between 14 and 15-years-old.

The reason it’s hard to pinpoint an exact age for Harrison is the show has sent some mixed messages. Dexter season 7 canonically takes place in 2011, slightly before it aired. During season 7, Dexter remarks that his son is 3-years-old. There’s a six-month time jump between the end of season 7 and the beginning of season 8, placing the majority of the season in 2012. At one point during season 8, Dexter’s now dead sister Debra says that Harrison is 4-years-old, which makes sense. However, season 8 changed Harrison’s actor to an older boy, Jadon Wells, who was 7-years-old.

While child actors often play younger than they are, lots of growing takes place between 4 and 7, and Wells certainly didn’t look 4, so if it hadn’t been mentioned, many fans likely would’ve assumed he was the actor’s age at the time. Dexter: New Blood is also not being entirely clear about the timeline. The official synopsis says New Blood is set 10 years after season 8, but that should put it in 2022, not 2021, when New Blood appears to be taking place. Either way, Harrison shouldn’t be any older than 16 at most, and that’s pushing it. Yet, Jack Alcott, who plays Harrison in New Blood, is 22 in real life. That begs the question of whether New Blood might be messing with Dexter’s timeline further by aging up Harrison to later in his teens.
