Good & bad news for Lucifer fans I suppose. Netflix has renewed the series for a fifth season but also announced that it will be its last.
The series, starring Tom Ellis and based on the DC Comics title, came to the streamer after Fox canceled it in May 2018 after three seasons. Season 4 made its Netflix debut on May 8 with a shortened 10-episode run; previous seasons on Fox had run at least 13 episodes each.
Netflix doesn’t release its viewing numbers but a weekly binge report for Netflix series’ show Lucifer at the top of the heap. I did hear that the creators had a five-season plan so at least they’ll get to conclude their story the way they see fit.
Lucifer’s cast also includes Lauren German, Kevin Alejandro, Lesley-Ann Brandt, Aimee Garcia, Inbar Levi, and Graham McTavish. No word on when season 5 of Lucifer will begin streaming.
