Check out these facts about Lucifer before the show hits the screen with its latest season on May 28, on Netflix.
Satan or Devil or Hades aka the keeper of hell has had many representations of himself across stories. Even though he's the one causing havoc in the lives of people in every story featuring him, no one has portrayed this character as well as our very own scintillating Lucifer Morningstar in Lucifer. Tom Ellis makes us fall in love with Lucifer Morningstar with his charming yet terrifying personality. We'd say that he's definitely responsible for turning this into a cult show. What sets this show apart from the rest is Lucifer wanting to be the good guy by helping the cops, one episode after another.
While the latest and last season is hitting our screens on May 28 on Netflix, here are some random facts about the show you may not know.
Lucifer is based on a comic book character
This handsome devil is based on Neil Gaiman's character, Lucifer Morningstar, from the Sandman comic book series. This TV show is neither an adaptation of the comics nor is the protagonist from the comics anything like this charming British devil. Only the inspiration of the character came from the book. The author infact sent across his comic books to Tom Ellis to read.
Lucifer was supposed to have an American accent.
Lucifer was originally to have an American accent but the makers thought that Tom Ellis' British accent would make anything sound fantastic and plus if said in a British accent you can get away with anything.
The title of each episode is mentioned in the series
Aside from the Pilot, the title of each episode is mentioned at least once throughout the episode. So the next time you binge-watch this show, listen to Lucifer's dialogues carefully.
