The long-awaited second half of Lucifer season 5 arrived on Netflix in late May, so there’s not a lot for the DC Comics present’s devoted to do besides marvel endlessly about season six, the collection’ remaining installment. The present’s San Diego Comic-Con @ Home panel knew this, and geared its programming towards Luci-fans accordingly.

Tom Ellis, the cheeky satan himself, sat down with Lucifer government producers Joe Henderson and Ildy Modrovich to dish on what’s subsequent (in a intelligent twist, Luke Cook, who performed Lucifer on a totally different Netflix collection—Chilling Adventures of Sabrina—was the panel host). Season 5, which aired in two elements because of covid-related manufacturing delays, explored the very difficult dynamic that emerged when a weary God (Dennis Haysbert) visited Earth and declared his intention to retire, prompting his sons Lucifer (Ellis) and Michael (additionally Ellis, doing an American accent) to brawl over who’ll get the gig as his alternative. Plus, there have been all kinds of different Lucifer shenanigans—together with the deaths of some essential characters, musical numbers, and romantic reunions, and even time for a little bit of crime-solving and glamour photographs of Los Angeles alongside the best way.

“It’s so rewarding because we’ve been sitting on this story and this journey for so long, and finally to have been to share it with everybody and see everyone’s reactions and just revel in how well it turned out and the incredible performances that were on the screen—it’s been wonderful,” Henderson mentioned of lastly launching the remainder of season 5 into the world. Here’s the complete panel, which does comprise some spoilers in the event you haven’t watched all of season 5.

There’s some enjoyable stuff in there about season 5—the musical episode will get numerous consideration—and huge props to Lucifer for really taking the time to incorporate some fan questions within the panel (even when they have been of the “what character would you most want to play other than Lucifer?” selection). But season six information was the primary draw, and the panel introduced that it’ll be arriving on Netflix surprisingly quickly: September 10. Other particulars have been much less concrete—a favourite visitor star or two will return; Amenadiel (D.B. Woodside) will pursue a brand new profession with LAPD; and Ella (Aimee Garcia) would possibly lastly notice the reality about Lucifer.

When host Cook requested if Lucifer will actually have all of God’s powers, because the season 5 cliffhanger instructed, Henderson stored it obscure: “I think that’ll be one of the first questions that our characters will be asking when we start season six.”

“He’s got quite a few mysteries to solve in season six,” Ellis mentioned of his character. “He grew up a lot, and he’s still in the process of growing up, but I think it’s that classic thing of ‘be careful what you wish for.’ Because he did convince himself about a lot of things during season five, but when something that you think about actually happens, it often feels very different. So that’s the kind of conundrum that Lucifer finds himself in, in season six.”
