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?

Please bring back Lucifer! Fox has a talented group of actors/actresses who have done a fantastic job on this show. Tom Ellis is a superb actor as are the whole cast! My husband and I enjoy watching the show and we are in our 70’s! So it’s not just the young ones watching! Please don’t let Lucifer go by the wayside!
Yes please keep this show, if fox want change there mind, i hope Netflix pick it up.
Please don’t cancel my TV show. I love the story behind it. Man, she just found out who luci was. You cant do this to me. I’m a single hardworking mom and this was my weekly outlet. Your very hurt and sad luci lover girl.
Wonderfully entertaining programme. Such a shame not to continue. Less worthy offerings have been picked up (viz “The Grand Tour – Yawn). Please don’t let this happen without a fight.
“RESISTANCE! If we fight we may lose – if we do NOT fight we’ve already lost!
I thought the show was quite interesting, the writing was a bit spotty at times, but overall I think the series had/has potential. Bring it back!
OMG! I’m shocked and think I may cry! This is my favorite show. I’ve been watching for all of the renewal and cancellation notices but it never occurred to me I needed to check for Lucifer. No one in their right mind would cancel this show. Oh, right.
Lucifer is actually the only show I look forward to watching…Totally different from the same ole same ole shows out there. I definitely will follow whatever network will pick it up! Fox cancels every show I get hooked on so decided not to get attached to anything on FOX…u have been canceled.
I agree, its different from the same ole shows and remakes out there.
