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?
I don’t care what channel, as long as it comes back. Good show thought provoking. Time for the networks to understand, for the viewers we don’t care about the money and ratings. We like shows that not everyone likes. I Can’t tell you how many shows I have invested and they get cancelled because it is deemed not successful. BRING BACK LUCIFER!
Yes I would watch it on a different channel. I love LUCIFER !!!
Love the show.
Please bring it back
Please, AMC.
Think about it:
TWD, FTWD, Preacher, Lucifer, NOS4A2.
Let’s make a deal. Father Frank and Jimmy Kimmel approve.
I am a very big fan of Lucifer, i can’t wait till Monday so I could watch it. I don’t watch alot of real life TV. Please put it back on, I’m 68 and love the actors and show
The show should be brought back. The ensemble cast was fantastic.
Bring Lucifer back!!!!!! Who are the idiots who decided to cancel the show!!!
Love the show. Any time there is a show with original ideas the networks are quick to cancel. Unless the show is a stupid NON reality show the networks want to cancel, i’m surprised Supernatural has been on for over 10 years. There seems to be no imagination in TV programming any more.
#bringbackLucifer
I don’t have Netflix and Hulu and Amazon I want lucifer to be back on a different tv channel I don’t want Lucifer to go on Netflix and Hulu and Amazon. How much does DC Universe cost to streaming Lucifer
Would we what LUCIFER on a new network?? Hell yea, they could put LUCIFER on cartoon network and i would still watch every episode, every minute. LUCIFER is an AMAZING and EPIC show. Please bring back our LUCIFER. #bringbacklucifer
Found a show I actually like watching. Bring back more seasons! Sad to see it go.
yes, yes, yes, please
I LOVE Lucifer!!!! Please save one of the few shows I look forward to every week!!!!!
Annnnd FOX does it again! Surprise, surprise. Cancels a good show and keeps the crappy shows that aren’t worth watching. After finding out they weren’t going to do another season of Wayward Pines, just to tie things up if for nothing else, I guess I should have seen that they wouldn’t be doing another season for Lucifer either. FOX is nothing if not consistently brainless when it comes to how it treats its good shows. I still haven’t forgiven them for what they did to Firefly. FOX has rarely failed to disappoint me in the past 15 years or so.
SAVE LUCIFER!!! Why would you do that to us????
