From Dexter To Desperate: Julie Benz is heading for Wisteria Lane.

The ex-Dexter star has reportedly been cast in the role of Debbie — a stripper with a Master’s degree in education — on the campy ABC dramedy Desperate Housewives. Julie’s Dexter character, Rita, was murdered on the fifth season finale of Showtime’s critically-acclaimed series last month.

Benz is booked for at least three episodes, the first of which is scheduled to air next month.
