‘Queer as Folk’: Peacock Reboot Adds Lukas Gage, Megan Stalter & More Guest Stars
The cast of Peacock’s Queer as Folk reboot continues to grow! Lukas Gage, Megan Stalter, Olli Haaskivi, and Calvin Seabrooks have joined the show’s ever-growing lineup of guest stars, including Kim Cattrall, Juliette Lewis, and Ed Begley Jr.
The new series is described as “a vibrant reimagining of the groundbreaking British series created by Russell T. Davies, exploring a diverse group of friends in New Orleans whose lives are transformed in the aftermath of a tragedy.”
