The TV world appears to have crowned its newest on-screen villain. This time, he’s just 14 years old.

Thankfully, Lox Pratt says he’s nothing like Jack, the arrogant, privileged and cruel egomaniac he plays in the latest adaptation of William Golding’s “Lord of the Flies,” launching today on Netflix. Nor is he like Draco Malfoy, the arrogant, privileged and devious bully he’s playing in HBO’s upcoming “Harry Potter” series, now in production with season 1 set for a Christmas launch.
