The Cat King, played by Lukas Gage, is a dangerous and fun queer villain in Netflix's adaptation of 'Dead Boy Detectives.'

This article contains spoilers for Netflix’s “Dead Boy Detectives.” When the Dead Boy Detectives Edwin Paine and Charles Rowland are first summoned by the Cat King, the shape-shifting feline just wants retribution after they break his rules. But after whisking Edwin away to privately discuss his crime and potential punishment, the Cat King is quick to admit that the handsome teen ghost fascinates him.

” It wasn’t until he put on the Cat King’s robe and makeup for the wardrobe test that he figured out the character. “He has a bunch of fur on and I remember there's a bit of a sensuality to this character,” said Gage. “He feels very comfortable in a robe and seducing this ghost in his lair.” Gage admits he was primarily drawn to the project for the opportunity to work with Yockey, though he does describe himself as an animal person who loves both cats and dogs.
