In an interview with PEOPLE magazine, Slater fondly recalled working with the actor on Mobster.
He said, “I had worked with Dempsey 30 years ago on Mobsters and it was a funny gangster movie.”

In Mobster, Slater played gangster Charlie “Lucky” Luciano and Dempsey starred as Meyer Lansky. Meanwhile, in Dexter prequel Dempsey plays Miami Metro Homicide Captain Aaron Spencer, while Slater takes on the role of Dexter’s father, Harry Morgan.
