Lucifer season 4: What did Tom Ellis think of the season 3 cliffhanger?
WARNING: This article contains spoilers from Lucifer season 3 Season three of Lucifer ended on an almighty cliffhanger which saw the lead character (played by Tom Ellis) revealing his devil face to police detective and love interest Chloe Decker (Lauren German). It also looked like the two characters could finally get together after three years of simmering chemistry. The cliffhanger came before the programme-makers were informed of the cancellation by US network FOX, leaving fans in turmoil at the open-ended finale. Speaking to media including Express.co.uk at MCM Comic-Con, Ellis opened up about his initial reaction to the script. WILL THERE BE ANOTHER SEASON OF LUCIFER?
He said: “When we were filming we were like, ‘Oh my god, when [the fans] see this they’re going to be wondering what’s going to be happening next season’. “But it’s that weird thing like that’s been a long time coming. It wasn’t planned as the final moment of Lucifer which it isn’t, and sincerely hope it isn’t [but] then what a way to go. “I remember reading that for the first time and the hairs on my arms – we’d been waiting for that.” He added: “I’m very keen about telling the story of what’s next.” WHY WAS LUCIFER CANCELLED?

Ellis has been campaigning hard for either another broadcaster or streaming service to pick up Lucifer. He confirmed that talks were taking place following the massive social media campaign initiated by fans after FOX announced the cancellation. Reflecting on his hopes for a potential season four, Ellis said he wanted to see what would happen between Lucifer and Chloe romantically as well as professionally. “How do they move forward from this? Because it’s fundamental and that’s what I was looking forward to in the season. They got so close!” he said. HERE'S HOW TO SAVE LUCIFER
