Lucifer may still have some life left. According to Deadline, Warner Bros. TV is shopping the cancelled FOX series around for a fourth season.
As reported earlier, the supernatural crime drama has been cancelled after three seasons. The cast includes Tom Ellis, Lauren German, DB Woodside, Lesley-Ann Brandt, Kevin Alejandro, Rachael Harris, Aimee Garcia, Tricia Helfer, Scarlett Estevez, and Tom Welling.
Per Deadline, Lucifer‘s production studio Warner Bros. TV is interested in shopping the series around to other networks for a fourth season. Currently, Hulu owns the streaming rights to the show, so that’s one option. Additionally, the crime drama is based on a DC Comics property and DC is launching a new streaming service, DC Universe, later this year.
One of FOX‘s other cancelled series, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, was recently picked up by NBC for another season, but will Lucifer have the same luck?
Ellis and others connected with the show have vowed to keep fighting to save the series. The actor who plays the show’s title character learned the news from showrunner Joe Henderson. Ellis had just attended a fan convention in Rome and was on a high. He was initially shocked and then devastated. When the cancellation news went public, he was overwhelmed by the uproar and love expressed by the fans.
He notes that the tsunami response has helped to create a conversation about saving the show. He notes that, “I don’t want to promise anything for anybody, because there are so many things that have to align for things to happen…,” he ventures. “But I didn’t have hope, and I do have hope now. And as long as there is hope, I will keep fighting. Because I think that’s what our fans want us to do.”
What do you think? Are you a fan of Lucifer? Would you watch the series on another network or streaming service? Should it be saved?
Yes, I would watch it. My provider watch it regular. We have it since it started. We were shock to see it was cancelled.
What the Hell is wrong with Fox , they renew a show with a new star ( no offense SWS ) , they cancel a show that is one of their best and they keep coming out with crappy hospital shows. The ER times are done let it go…..
Yes, I would definitely continue to watch Lucifer, even if I had to buy a Netflix subscription. I am going to boycott #Fox, i.e. #boycottfoxtv, until they bring back the one of the best original shows, i.e. #Lucifer, back to TV. Please #savelucifer damnit, no pun intended!
Love Lucifer and hope someone (Hulu please!) else picks it up. Having said that I don’t get this ‘boycott Fox because my favorite show is canceled’. You have no other Fox shows you like? What happens when your favorite show on CBS is canceled? Or ABC, SYFY, USA etc.? Pretty soon you won’t be watching any tv (which may be a good thing in the long run!) but contrary to popular opinion, there are always some good shows airing, whether it be the networks or cable. [Also remember the networks are capitalist enterprises, owned by shareholders and by definition must… Read more »

Fox is looking more and more like a man channel. Nfl, pro baseball…and every cartoon with fart jokes you can imagine.
was it too much to ask they keep a show that a guy and a girl could both enjoy without one side or the other over represented?
Tom Ellis is incredible. His performance in this role is outstanding and well worth many more seasons of the show. The supporting cast and co-stars are also great in their acting. Please don’t take Tom Ellis off of the screen, be it television or silver. Lucifer is a timely and welcomed breath of fresh air for television! I am always entertained by it and I love seeing him bring that personality to life. He is amazingly talented and had me hooked on this show from the very first episode. In an age of society-rotting reality tv, it is a joy… Read more »
