DoctorAtomic February 21, 2020 Share February 21, 2020 Yes, that was my point. You can mine a decent amount just from that premise. Add in that Lucifer actually doesn't know who escaped here for another wrinkle. Or something like he's the only one who can send them back. Not all of them have to be 'evil' either. Link to comment
ProudMary March 7, 2020 Share March 7, 2020 Lucifer's Tom Ellis Finalizes Deal for Potential Season 6 at Netflix Quote Lucifer‘s Tom Ellis, has finalized a new deal to continue raising hell as the show’s title character in a potential sixth season, TVLine has learned exclusively. News of the actor’s extension all but clears the way for the series’ Season 6 renewal at Netflix. Last week, co-showrunners Ildy Modrovich and Joe Henderson inked new Season 6 deals. Meanwhile, many — if not all — of Ellis’ co-stars have existing deals that carry them through Season 6. 1 2 Link to comment

But with the producers & Ellis signing on, it’s probably coming. All the other leads contracts already include a possible S6. Apparently they still have one more episode of S5 to shoot (of the last 8), when the Coronavirus pandemic shut down production. I hope we get the first half soon, as post production can be done w/o having groups of people in close proximity. Link to comment

I would like more seasons because it isn't boring yet, and all shows eventually get to that point if they last long enough. Link to comment

I'm not in the industry, but I know the last episodes of Walking Dead aren't being shown, because they have post-production work not done, and you can't do it by yourself, apparently. Some may be redubbing voices or sounds, but even the editing and special effects aren't one guy alone any more. Lucifer is (thankfully) not much like Walking Dead, but in terms of the type of post-production, there are probably similar levels of work to be done. Link to comment

Netflix tweeted out last week, asking if fans were feeling the flames of Hell, and to get ready for an announcement abt the release of S5. To me, that appears that part 1 was pretty much in the can. Hopefully we’ll see something in May. 2 1 Link to comment

Projects are probably getting scrapped/canceled left and right because filming production is shut down until who knows when, he's not in the best position to hold out. If he can accept he should. Also it's worst possible time to jerk around your co-stars and crew about their futures (you shouldn't anyway but still) had they been told. Edited April 20, 2020 by Gigi43 3 Link to comment
rainsmom April 20, 2020 Share April 20, 2020 We don't know what the dispute IS. It could be that now that COVID-19 has screwed things up, the filming of season 6 MOVED and now conflicts with other things he committed to doing. 4 Link to comment
UnknownK April 20, 2020 Share April 20, 2020 If they split a season 6 into two half seasons he would be stuck filming for a long time and that would probably interfere with whatever else he might have signed up for after the current final season which isn't even done filming yet is it? No idea how in demand he is to be honest. Link to comment
KAOS Agent April 21, 2020 Share April 21, 2020 They film the entire season at once, they only split the episodes for release. Tom Ellis had an initial agreement to go forward, which means availability was not an issue. I don't see anyone quibbling about scheduling/availability at the moment because no one knows anything about filming going forward. If anything, availability would be more flexible because everything is up in the air at the moment. Projects that were filming and then shutdown will likely be finished once they figure out how to go back to work, but anything beyond that is totally unknown. 3 Link to comment
roamyn April 21, 2020 Share April 21, 2020 Consider the source. I think (and it’s only MO), that this is a fail safe in case the show doesn’t get picked up, there’s someone to blame. The dispute could be number of filming days (many CBS stars have done this, while still working an existing contract - Mathew Gay Gubler & Scott Caan among the most notable), or something to help boost his co-stars, or something seemingly insignificant. i really don’t think/hope the dispute will be an issue.

paulvdb May 29, 2020 Share May 29, 2020 ‘Lucifer’ Star Tom Ellis Closes Deal To Return, Paving Way To Season 6 Renewal By Netflix Quote It took lengthy, difficult negotiations with Ellis but he also recently signed on to return. The rest of the cast are also on board, sources said. With all key pieces in place, Netflix is expected to proceed with the pickup. The plan had been for Lucifer to go back into production in September on Season 6, though the show will need to first finish filming Season 5, which was impacted by the coronavirus pandemic. I hear the show had four days from Season 5 left to shoot when production was suspended in March. 2 Link to comment

BabySpinach July 13, 2020 Share July 13, 2020 The fact that they revealed this evil twin "twist" in the trailer implies that it's only the set-up rather than the whole plot of season 5A. I am very curious as to how they'll explain where Michael's been this whole time, why he and Lucifer are identical, what their dynamic is like, etc. Of course this well-worn trope has the potential to be a terrible schlock-fest, but after how season 4 somehow made the love triangle work (another trope that is very hard to do well) I'll give them the benefit of the doubt! 1 Link to comment

I saw two interviews months ago while they were filming, where Tom said that you find out pretty early when Lucifer will be back and where DB said that he goes to Hell to get Luci to help with a problem on Earth, in episode 1. My guess is Michael is the problem, unless both actors were trying to shift direction. 4 Link to comment
ProudMary July 13, 2020 Share July 13, 2020 You'd have to think that the Michael revelation happens in Ep. 1, otherwise they've put a huge spoiler for the entire season in the trailer, which I'd doubt. Whatever the case, I'm looking forward to seeing Tom Ellis play both Lucifer and Michael. Should be an acting Master Class. Oh. My. Dad! I sure am looking forward to Season 5. 😀 6 Link to comment
thuganomics85 July 13, 2020 Share July 13, 2020 Agree that revealing the Michael twist in the trailers likely means that something even bigger is going to end up happening. Spoiler Probably has something to do with God/"Dad" showing him, since Dennis Haysbert was cast in the role. Either way, it should be fun watching Tom Ellis get to play two different characters. I'm sure he'll do great with it. August 21 can't come too quickly. I already really enjoyed last season, but with everything going on now, I'm ready for some laughs, thrills, and more with Luci and the gang! 3 Link to comment
Peace 47 July 14, 2020 Share July 14, 2020 Wow, the trailer is #1 on YouTube trending in the U.S. It’s interesting how a Fox bubble show seemed to really take off on Netflix last year, and it looks like interest is still high. I think the trailer looks tight. 1 4 Link to comment

There are viewers who don't know the comics though (and I would find it presumptious if TPTB just assumed everyone knows the source material). It's also never been mentioned on the show, so it feels a bit like the typical TV procedural: introduce something when you need it even though you've never used it before (and never use it again once you don't need it anymore). 2 Link to comment

I think you're right that he's been mentioned, and in contexts that imply neither Lucifer nor Amenadiel can stand him. IIRC, most recently, in a Season 4 episode Linda suggests "Michael" as a baby name, and Amenadiel replies something like "Not Michael!" 1 Link to comment
DoctorAtomic August 12, 2020 Share August 12, 2020 I vaguely remember a reference to a Michael early on in the run after Amenadiel was introduced. They write Lucifer with dense dialogue and there's a lot of one off lines that one might miss. 1 Link to comment

Bruinsfan August 14, 2020 Share August 14, 2020 Amenadiel basically fulfills the role Michael does in Christian mythology. In the comics the character Amenadiel was a much less prominent angel that was sent by Heaven as an errand boy to hire Lucifer for a freelance job. 1 Link to comment

Isn't it interesting that Michael is the "evil twin." The "villain" is the hero of their own story.

Interesting theory, except that in S1, Amenadiel was playing the role of “bad guy”, by trying to have his brother murdered. So I would say that while Amenadiel was the hero of his story in S1, he went abt it morally wrong. Link to comment
