I had a great time talking to George Rexstrew and Jayden Revri for Netflix’s “Dead Boy Detectives.” Both are sweet and charming and even played with me about my backdrop. In the series, George Rexstrew aka Edwin Paine and Jayden Revri aka Charles Rowland are our dead boy detectives who decided not to enter the afterlife and stay on Earth to investigate supernatural crimes.
Based on the characters created by Neil Gaiman and Matt Wagner, “Dead Boy Detectives” is creepy, funny, trippy, with a great big heart. It’s safe to say that this series belongs in the Sandman Universe. Take a look at my interview with Rexstrew and Revri about the series.
“Dead Boy Detectives” is set to premiere on Netflix on April 25.
The women of “Dead Boy Detectives” are fierce and complex like Kassius Nelson’s Crystal and Yuyu Kitamura’s Niko. Both play integral parts in the Netflix series. Here’s looking forward to second season to see more of these characters. I spent some time with Nelson and Kitamura to talk about the show.
Showrunners Steve Yockey and Beth Schwartz take you inside the making of “Dead Boy Detectives” and explain how it’s part of the Sandman Universe.
