Netflix does another one of their quirky series-adjacent documentaries, this time delving into the depiction of the devil himself in culture, religion and in the just-returned series Lucifer.
Lucifer season five finds the team struggling to cope with Morningstar's (Tom Ellis) absences after his departure at the end of season four. Now he's returned and he's not the same. Has the king of Hell been transformed by his time away? Or his his twin brother Michael here to take everything from him?
Lucifer is the 2016 TV series based on the DC/Vertigo comics character of the same name, the version of which originated in the Sandman comics by Neil Gaiman and various artists.
The series focuses on Lucifer Morningstar (To Ellis), the biblical ruler of Hell who abandons his kingdom to experience life as a human being. He runs a nightclub in Los Angeles call "Lux" and becomes partnered (and eventually romantic) with LAPD detective Chloe Decker (Lauren German). Lucifer's ability to know the temptations of humans becomes a tool he uses to assist Decker.
The series was initially developed for Fox Television by Tom Kapinos (Californication). It was cancelled by the network after three seasons, but then picked up by Netflix for season four and five.
