Jayden Revri pointing at his temple in Dead Boy Detectives
There will be no resurrection for George Rexstrew and Jayden Revri. Netflix has canceled Dead Boy Detectives after one Tseason on the platform, officially ending its twisty journey that began years back when it was first ordered for HBO Max. While the Neil Gaiman-based series saw some modest early success and rave reviews to the tune of a 92% Rotten Tomatoes score, it wasn't enough to save the series from the hand of Death.
Dead Boy Detectives had a rocky road to television from the beginning. The original plans for the series to be part of HBO Max's catalog were scuttled when James Gunn and Peter Safran took over as the new stewards of the DC Universe.
Rexstrew and Revri led the series London-set series as Edwin Payne and Charles Rowland, the titular afterlife detectives and best friends who are stuck as ghosts after being brutally murdered in boarding school. Together, with help from their living friend Crystal Palace , they choose to remain in the mortal realm to investigate supernatural crimes while evading Death.
What's Next for 'The Sandman' Universe at Netflix? Though the Dead Boy Detectives will no longer haunt Netflix, the same cannot be said for The Sandman which is gearing up for the release of Season 2. Casting announcements and episode titles have given some insight into where the Tom Sturridge-led adaptation is heading next as it adapts the "Season of Mists" arc, but finer details have been largely kept under wraps.
