Lucifer Season 4 Announces Start of Production
Netflix rescued Lucifer from its Fox cancellation, to the adulation of the show’s shocked fandom. The streamer is picking up Lucifer Season 4, meaning we’ll get some resolution of the big reveal in the Season 3 cliffhanger after all.
Lucifer Season 4 News
A few months after the streaming giant performed its miraculous rescue, Lucifer Season 4 has officially gone into production!
Day 1 of the shoot was commemorated with a video from the makeup trailer in which stars Tom Ellis, Lauren German, Rachael Harris, Aimee Garcia, Kevin Alejandro, and Lesley-Ann Brandt get hyped for the show’s Netflix-born reprieve. Of course, Brandt, who plays Mazikeen, prepared an appropriately demonic parting shot (the kind you drink,) aimed at the Fox decision-maker who cancelled the show.

thanks to this official tweeted image of the Lucifer Season 4 premiere script, which reveals its ever-appropriate title, “Everything’s Okay.”
“Everything’s Okay,” is an intriguing title that seems to tease a potentially crucial line uttered by someone when it comes the aforementioned cliffhanger scene, in which the truth – that Lucifer is really THE Lucifer – is finally revealed to Chloe, who has finally witnessed the infamous Devil Face.
As the visual evidence makes clear, the Lucifer Season 4 premiere episode will be penned by returning Fox-era writer Joe Henderson and directed by Sherwin Shilati, who directed two previous episodes of the series, having also helmed an episode of The CW’s Riverdale, episodes of series Merrime.com and the 2017 dramedy film, People You May Know.
Lucifer Season 4 Details
There were fan petitions and social campaigns to save Lucifer Season 4, and Amazon flirted with potentially saving the series. Contractually, the Lucifer actors couldn’t look for other jobs until June 16th, giving the revival a hard deadline. The CW was thought to be a potential suitor, given its DC ties, but its network executives denied any interest in the series starring Tom Ellis.
Ellis tweeted out his support for the revival:
The series was averaging about 5 million viewers per episode on Fox. Episodes of Lucifer are not currently available on Netflix (all three seasons are currently on Hulu), but we imagine that will change with this deal. It’s the first time Netflix will be producing an original series based on a DC Comic.
We’ll keep you posted on the status of Lucifer Season 4 and a potential release date.
