Fox’s upcoming TV adaptation of the DC/Vertigo comic book title Lucifer has secured a new series regular, with Deadline reporting that Kevin Alejandro (Arrow) will play “Dan, a gruff LAPD homicide detective who is wary of Lucifer’s involvement with his wife and daughter.” The role was originally filled by Nicholas Gonzalez in the pilot episode.

Lucifer stars Tom Ellis (Rush) in the title role as Lucifer, who, bored and unhappy as the Lord of Hell, resigns his throne and abandons his kingdom for the gorgeous, shimmering insanity of Los Angeles, where he gets his kicks helping the LAPD punish criminals. Co-starring alongside Ellis are Lauren German (Chicago Fire) as Chloe Dancer, an LAPD homicide detective who finds herself both repulsed and fascinated by Lucifer; Lesley-Ann Brandt (Spartacus) as Lucifer’s best friend Maze, a fierce demon who takes the form of a human woman; Kevin Alejandro (Arrow) as Dan, an LAPD homicide detective wary of Lucifer; D.B. Woodside as Amenadiel, an angel sent to L.A. to persuade Lucifer to return to hell; and Rachael Harris as Linda, Lucifer’s therapist.
Lucifer is slated to premiere on Fox in 2016.
