Netflix Renews Lucifer for Fifth and Final Season

Lucifer fans are both excited and heartbroken with the breaking news today from Netflix that the devilish series has been renewed for a fifth season, which will also be the last in the series after Season 4 premiered back on May 8th. Only a day after the 10 episodes became available on the streaming platform, fans were already bombarding cast and crew asking when they could expect another season.

Said Netflix in a statement, "We are thrilled that Lucifer fans around the world have embraced this series on Netflix, and we can't wait to give them the big finish they've all been waiting for."

"We are so incredibly thankful to Netflix for resurrecting our show last season, and now letting us finish the story of Lucifer on our terms," added showrunners Joe Henderson and Ildy Modrovich. "Most importantly, we want to thank the fans for their incredible passion and support. The best is yet to come!"

Fans may have had their wishes answered, but sadly it will mark the end of the series. The cliffhanger at the conclusion of Season 4 saw Lucifer Morningstar (Tom Ellis) saying goodbye to Detective Decker (Lauren German) as he spread his wings and disappeared into the night sky, only to appear on his throne in Hell. Will the pair finally find the happy ending that fans have been wanting since the beginning? We will need to wait and find out.

Stay tuned to Dead Entertainment for production and release information when it becomes available.

Michelle Kaotic

Growing up in Northern Ontario, Canada, I still remember that first time watching The Exorcist as a kid. While others looked away, I took in every pea green puke and head-spinning moment that I could. Since then, horror and music have become passionate hobbies in my life. Although new to the convention scene, I’ve been collecting both horror and music items for over two decades. Two moments that make these hobbies worthwhile were coming face to face with Freddy Krueger himself, the legendary Robert Englund, and shaking hands with guitar icon Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin. I started Kaotic Notes back in 2015 to house the numerous reviews, interviews, photos, and videos that I had done, and continue to do so to this day. It’s only rock and roll with a touch of blood and gore. What can go wrong?!
