It may fall on the “horror lite” side of the fence, but there’s still a lot for genre fans to love about Fox’s series “Lucifer.” And obviously the network loves the show as well because they’ve just announced that they are renewing it for a third season.
From the Press Release:
FOX has ordered a third season of “LUCIFER,” the devilishly fun series about the original fallen angel who moves to Los Angeles and teams up with the LAPD to take down criminals. Twenty-two episodes have been ordered.
Delivering an average Multi-Platform audience of eight million viewers, “LUCIFER” stars Tom Ellis, Lauren German, Rachael Harris, DB Woodside, Lesley-Ann Brandt, Kevin Alejandro, Aimee Garcia, Tricia Helfer, and Scarlett Estevez. The series is based upon the characters created by Neil Gaiman, Sam Kieth, and Mike Dringenberg for Vertigo, from DC Entertainment.
“LUCIFER” is produced by Warner Bros. Television, in association with Jerry Bruckheimer Television and Aggressive Mediocrity. Tom Kapinos (“Californication”) wrote and executive produced the pilot. The series is executive produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, Jonathan Littman, Ildy Modrovich, and Joe Henderson. Len Wiseman serves as director and executive producer. Kapinos serves as executive consultant on the series.
“’LUCIFER’ is one of those rare shows that starts strong out of the gate and just keeps getting better and better,” said David Madden, President, Entertainment, Fox Broadcasting Company. “Tom, Lauren, and the entire cast have really made these characters three-dimensional, and the production team – Jerry, Len, Jonathan, Joe, and Ildy – is one of the best in the business. We’d also like to thank our partners Warner Bros. for their commitment to this show, and we look forward to seeing where this wildly innovative series takes us in Season Three.”
In the all-new spring premiere of “LUCIFER,” “Candy Morningstar,” airing Monday, May 1 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT), on FOX, Lucifer (Ellis) has gone off the grid and cut off all contact from his family and the police department, following Chloe’s (German) near-death. But the murder of an up-and-coming guitarist causes him to resurface – with a new mystery woman. Meanwhile, Lucifer’s mom (Helfer) realizes she may have found a way to finally get them back to Heaven.
