Amazon has announced that it has snapped up the exclusive UK rights to the new DC / Vertigo series Lucifer, starring Tom Ellis (Miranda) in the title role of the Lord of Hell.
Charming, charismatic and devilishly handsome, Lucifer is enjoying his retirement when a violent attack on someone he knows shakes him to the core, forcing him to consider whether some deep-buried compassion might be about to surface. As the story of what happened that night unfolds, Lucifer is compelled to work with LAPD homicide detective Chloe Dancer (Lauren German, Chicago Fire) who, despite being immune to his irresistible charms, is intrigued by Lucifer’s talent for drawing out people’s secrets. More used to dealing with the absolute worst of humanity, Lucifer is struck by Chloe’s inherent goodness and an uneasy partnership of sorts emerges. Meanwhile, God’s emissary on Earth, the angel Amenadiel (D.B. Woodside, Suits), has been sent to L.A. to convince Lucifer to return to Hell, but with the City of Angels at his feet and a newfound purpose, Lucifer’s having too much fun to go back now…
