Luke Patterson

Luke is one of the main protagonists in the Netflix series Julie and the Phantoms. He is portrayed by Charlie Gillespie.

Biography
Luke was born sometime around 1977-1978 to his parents Emily and Mitch Patterson. He is an only child.

Sometime in the early 1990s, Luke formed a band with his friends Alex, Reggie, and Bobby called Sunset Curve.

His parents bought him his guitar which ignited his love for music. Luke's parents were disapproving of his dream to be in a rock band which caused a rift between him and his parents resulting in Luke running away from home.

One night in 1995 Sunset Curve was due to play at a venue called The Orpheum, which has kickstarted many bands careers. According to Luke, "We're playing the Orpheum, I can't even count how many bands have played here and then ended up being huge." After a soundcheck Luke, Reggie, and Alex went to get street dogs for dinner, which ended up giving them food poisoning and killing them.

Personality
Luke has a very upbeat and fast paced personality. He is kind and caring, but can sometimes lose focus and go off track, such as when he and the rest of the band blew off band rehearsal with Julie to get back at Bobby.

Physical appearance
Luke has shaggy brown hair and green eyes. He can usually be seen wearing a band tee with cut off sleeves, black cuffed jeans, and a beanie. He always wears beads around his right wrist and a watch on his left wrist. He also wears a rabbit’s foot necklace and multiple rings, the first being a nod to Gillespie’s grandfather in real life.
