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 absolutely loved this show, and am mad as hell to learn it may be cancelled.
It needs to find a home on another network, PLEASE. Enough with the reality, cooking, singing, dancing and other useless so called entertainment TV. Lucifer was one of the best acting ensembles to hit the screen in a long time. Please cancel something else and make for Lucifer to continue.
I love Lucifer and would watch who ever picks him up
I want another season of Lucifer. I love this show!
Yes it needs to be saved one of the best shows I’ve seen in awhile.
I would definitely watch Lucifer. Why did so many good shows get the ax? I looked forward to Mondays so I could watch Lucifer. I loved it.
I LOVE Luci and I’ve been in mourning since the news. I would watch on any platform (free, pay cable, streaming, etc.) I need Luci in my life!! #SaveLucifer
My wife and I loved watching Lucifer, and could not understand why it was being cancelled. We are in our 60’s and pretty much everyone we talked felt the same as we did. The show had, Drama, Comedy, Twists and Turns, good acting, and a great story line. We don’t understand why some other shows are left running as they provide none of the above. We would watch this show even if it was on the PBS Channel!!
Yes I would watch another season of Lucifer.
I would absolutely follow Lucifer wherever it lands! It’s my favorite and it deserves to continue. #SaveLucifer
Do not cancel Lucifer! It is a GREAT show, great writers and actors/characters. I would watch it on another network.
I love watching Lucifer, I’m so upset, I love all the actors and to me it is one of the best t.v. shows. I will follow, wherever, PLEASE DO NOT cancel. Tom Ellis and all the others are the best……
I would watch and make everyone I knew watch! #SaveLucifer #PickUpLucifer
I adore this show and will absolutely follow Lucifer wherever he ends up! (I’ll even subscribe to a new service if I have to!) #SaveLucifer
