First Look At Tom Ellis As LUCIFER; Show Gets A Series Order At Fox
Fox's take on Lucifer has been given the greenlight, and you can see Tom Ellis as the man himself along with the official title treatment after the jump...
From the pages of The Sandman to his own incredibly popular comic series, DC Vertigo's incarnation of the Morningstar will now make his way to the small screen. Lucifer has been officially greenlit by Fox, and below we have our first look at Tom Ellis as a dark-haired former Lord of Hell.
The series stars Tom Ellis (Rush) in the title role as Lucifer, who, bored and unhappy as the Lord of Hell, resigns his throne and abandons his kingdom for the gorgeous, shimmering insanity of Los Angeles, where he gets his kicks helping the LAPD punish criminals. Co-starring alongside Ellis are Lauren German (Chicago Fire) as Chloe Dancer, an LAPD homicide detective who finds herself both repulsed and fascinated by Lucifer; Lesley-Ann Brandt (Spartacus) as Lucifer’s best friend Maze, a fierce demon who takes the form of a human woman; Nicholas Gonzalez (Sleepy Hollow) as Dan, an LAPD homicide detective wary of Lucifer; D.B. Woodside as Amenadiel, an angel sent to L.A. to persuade Lucifer to return to hell; and Rachael Harris as Linda, Lucifer’s therapist.
