Graham McTavish plays Vatican priest Father Kinley in Lucifer Season 4, Episode 2, titled Somebody’s Been Reading Dante’s Inferno.
Father Kinley is a nice, kind-hearted, empathic and highly respected Catholic priest who is devoted to his priestly duty of protecting his flock. He is committed to protecting mankind from the evil influence of the Devil whom he has identified as Lucifer Morningstar (Tom Ellis).
Chloe (Lauren German) is shocked when she learns that Lucifer Morningstar is the Devil, so she goes to Rome to do research on him. While in Rome she meets Father Kinley, a Vatican investigator who is an expert in the Devil and whose mission in life is to avert a hellish prophecy by thwarting the Devil’s evil plans against mankind.
Chloe hatches a plan with Father Kinley to send the Devil back to hell where he came from, and although Chloe eventually backs out of the plan, Lucifer feels the sting of the betrayal.
