Lucifer's Final Season: Everything We Know About the Series' Swan Song

·1 min read

The Devil, they say, is in the details — and we’ve got loads of ’em in this preview of the sixth and final season of Netflix’s Lucifer.

Lucifer was of course cancelled by Fox in May 2018, after three seasons. But a month later, Netflix stepped forth to “rescue” the supernatural-tinged procedural for a fourth season, followed by a fifth. Season 5 famously was to mark the end of the series, but Netflix surprised co-showrunners Joe Henderson and Ildy Modrovich with a request for one more, truly final round. As a result, the Season 5 finale’s original coda got clipped, and the EPs whipped up a 10-episode “love letter” to Lucifans.

“As we started to dig into Season 6, we found new story we wouldn’t have told before,” Henderson told TVLine.”There is a story that we didn’t know we would have to tell until we got to the point we got to [with the Season 5 finale], and once we got there and looked around, we realized that there was an entire engine for an entire season’s worth of storytelling that we’re excited about.

“But it is very much a season of saying goodbye to the show we love,” he added.

What else do we know about Season 6? I’m midway through the 10 screeners and thus haven’t yet read the DNR (Do Not Reveal) list, so my lips are still carefully zipped. But here is a look at everything that has been shared by the cast and EPs. (And as always, you may email InsideLine@tvline.com to seek more scoop!)

  • China stands by economic data, says defence spending 'transparent'

    China defended the veracity of its economic numbers and asserted its military spending was "transparent and reasonable", while dismissing as "typical double standards" comments made this week by the head of the U.S. Indo-Pacific Command. In March, China said it would boost defence spending by 7.2% this year, with an allocation of 1.55 trillion yuan ($214 billion), slightly outpacing last year's increase and swifter than the government's modest economic growth forecast. In his remarks on Tuesday, U.S. Admiral John Aquilino said China's economy had been battered by turmoil in the real estate sector and its official growth rates were "not real".

  • Brad Marchand scores two, Bruins down Maple Leafs 4-2 to take 2-1 series lead

    TORONTO — Brad Marchand had a relatively quiet — at least by his in-your-face standards — start to the Stanley Cup playoffs. Sure, the Bruins captain drew some key penalties and picked up three assists through six periods against the Maple Leafs. He'd also yet to truly leave his mark. And it felt like only a matter of time before one of the NHL's best both with the puck on his stick, and at hockey's dark arts when it isn't, properly entered the fray. The moment arrived Wednesday. Marchand scored
