Lucifer co-showrunner Joe Henderson explains the influence that the DC Comics series had on the Netflix show's final season.
One of the showrunners for Lucifer, Joe Henderson, explains how the DC comics influenced season 6. Lucifer was a TV series based on the character Lucifer Morningstar from Neil Gaiman's comic series, The Sandman. Season 1 premiered in 2016, and the series would come to a close with season 6's release in 2021.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Initially, Lucifer was ordered by Fox, but after 3 seasons with fairly low ratings, Fox opted to cancel the show. However, only one month later, Netflix would pick up Lucifer and give the show an additional three seasons; the show's ratings became consistently higher than they were during Lucifer's run on Fox.
"I was a huge fan of Mike Carey's run, I was obsessed, so yeah, we devoured that. I, in particular, was obsessed with everything he did.
With adapting a comic book to the screen being a tricky process, the Lucifer showrunners aren't the only ones to have struggled with bringing in big comic ideas. The Umbrella Academy showrunners have admitted to facing similar issues in season 3 of their show, saying that there are scenes in the original comics that they simply couldn't afford to do on television.
Whereas some television adaptations receive scathing reviews for deviating so much from their source material, it'll no doubt come as a relief to viewers that the Lucifer showrunners had every intention of bringing more of Gaiman's comic world into the series. It's better to have skipped out on certain comic plot lines than to have done them poorly or inaccurately, which is exactly what Henderson opted to do in the show's final season.
