'Lucifer' may be renewed for Season 6 as Netflix talks with Warner Bros ahead of Season 5, fans welcome move
Looks like our dear Mr Devil is not going anywhere anytime soon! Nor are we ready to part ways with him! The globally favorite King of Hell, Lucifer will most probably be back for another season, after its upcoming season.
Yes, you heard that right! Even before Netflix or the production team announced the final release date for its fifth season, there has been news that 'Lucifer' might be renewed for a Season 6, and as declared earlier, Season 5 might not actually be the final chapter of the Devil's saga.
The streaming network is in talks with the show's producer, Warner Bros Television to make the show go beyond its stipulated Finale Season 5. Although there's no official statement or word of confirmation from either Netflix or Warner Bros, this is still big news for the Vertigo Comics-based drama series.
Previously, after moving to Netflix and airing its fourth season, the team announced that the upcoming fifth season will be the show’s final bow. This was already disappointing for all 'Lucifer' fans as they could not imagine parting ways with the most loved devil on television as of today.
And now, with the rumors of a sixth season, fans are elated and cannot control their excitement.
One fan from Brasil commented on Twitter, "There my cuore! That's what we asked yes #LuciferNetflix#LuciferSeason6#luciferseason5." Another Netflix Brasil user tweeted, "Ouch, ouch, ouch! Don't play with my heart. All I want most is that @NetflixBrasil don't cancel my favorite series #LuciferNetflix."
One particular fan took the excitement to another level. She says, "Lost a family member, bad bad things are happening in my country, but here's something good. Nowhere to go but up. #LuciferNetflix #LuciferSeason5 #LuciferSeason6 I LOVE that this keeps happening when we get in this sitch!!!"
"Talks for #LuciferNetflix not actually ending? yes! personally, it's one of my favorite shows, I followed it from Fox to Netflix & I seem to enjoy all the seasons. I really hope this is true!!!," said a fan.
Well, so do we! Watching Tom Ellis as the perfect portrayal of the Devil and his entourage of fascinating characters has been worth every minute of screen time.
Most users seem to be on team 'Lucifer' and don’t want the show to end. This reminds us of the time when after Season 3, the series was canceled from network television and was later picked up by Netflix only to give it life for another season. And then it went on to garner more popularity and extend to the fifth season.
The last season, aired in May 2019, left us with a cliffhanger and a broken heart as Lucifer returns to hell and leaves Chloe with her unrequited love.
For what happens next, you would need to wait a little longer, since the fifth season is currently undergoing its final few weeks of production.
According to Netflix and Warner Bros statements, Season 5 of 'Lucifer' will have 16 episodes with eight-episode sets to be released at a time. The season is all set to release sometime mid-2020.
Stay tuned as we bring you more updates on 'Lucifer' Season 5 and Season 6.
