Lucifer Picked Up By Netflix

Little devils, we did it! Today it was announced that Netflix would be picking up Lucifer, which was cancelled by FOX last month.

Season three ended on quite the cliffhanger with creator Joe Henderson tweeting out after the axing that it “f*cking hurts” and apologised for frustrating fans. The very handsome devil is played by Tom Ellis who was “gutted” by the cancellation. “It fills me with great sadness to confirm the rumours that some of you have been asking. Fox has indeed cancelled #lucifer I’m so sorry guys,” he wrote at the time.

After the cancellation was announced, fans rushed to social media to share their anger over the news and their support for the series. Various Lucifer hashtags including #savelucifer and #renewlucifer trended several times, particularly on Twitter. Fans tweeted at Fox, Amazon, Netflix, and various other networks and streaming services in hopes they would make the decision to pick up the series. After being done previously with a few shows such as The Expanse and Brooklyn Nine Nine, fans were hopeful that someone would come to Lucy’s rescue. It was reported earlier this week that Amazon Studios were in talks, but now, here we are today with the news that Netflix has decided to pick it up instead. The first two seasons are already available on Netflix, and the third is sure to be added over the next few months.

The series is produced by Warner Bros. Television, which is also the studio behind Netflix’s upcoming reimagining of Sabrina the Teenage Witch, The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. Netflix previously revived Warner Horizon’s Longmire after A&E cancelled it after Season 3, and has become known for resurrecting beloved properties including Arrested Development and Wet Hot American Summer.

It was only earlier this week that we posted an article in hopes of seeing the fantastic series picked up, which went completely crazy with Rachael Harris, Tom Ellis, Aimee Garcia, and other members from the cast and crew sharing our article. Naturally the fans flocked to our website to check out the article and share their love for the series. We were inundated with comments and it was absolutely stunning to read some of the comments, especially those written in other languages which just goes to show that Lucifer fans are all over the world!

The cast and crew all reacted on socials media and they are just as excited as us!

Warner Bros. and Netflix declined to comment on an episode count or prospective release date for the newly minted fourth season, but sources tell TVLine that Netflix offered a 10 episode order for Season 4.
