Lucifer Spring Premiere Promo Teases Heavenly Plan, Reunion With... Dad?! 

Lucifer Bets on NCIS Vet Lauren Holly for Season 3 Guest Spot

In the first promo for the Fox drama’s spring premiere, the titular character calls out to “dad” after our first glimpse of guest star Timothy Omundson, who is seen approaching Lucifer’s mom. As previously announced, the 

alum has been cast as someone who just might be God, aka Lucifer and Amenadiel’s father. Also revealed in the 30-second tease: Lucifer is crafting a plan to return everyone to Heaven. Well,

Per Fox, the first episode back picks up two weeks after Chloe’s near death. In that time, “Lucifer has gone off the grid, cutting off all contact from his family and the police department. He materializes just in time to help solve an up-and-coming guitarist’s murder and introduces the department to a ditzy stripper named Candy (

‘ Lindsey Gort), a mysterious new woman in his life. While Lucifer’s mom desperately tries to contact her son, Chloe tries to push him away,” forcing Lucifer to “find a way to prove himself in order to be invited back onto the team.”

returns on Monday, May 1 at 9/8c with what are now the final five episodes of Season 2. As first reported in March, the supernatural drama will hold Episodes 19-22 of its second season order for fall, which are said to be more standalone in nature.

I did not know Timothy Omundson was gonna be in Lucifer. A show I had zero interest in has just become a must-watch.

Lucifer is one of the best written, best acted show on TV. You’ve been missing out.

I am very excited to see what will go down. Can’t wait until May 1st.

I have to admit I did not like the news that came out today and so hope they don’t change the show to much. But right now feeling a tad nervous.

What news? Are you talking about the episode cut and how there will only be five more when they return? Because that was announced a while ago. Please clarify!

Love this show. Hope it goes on and on. Don’t cancel it Would leave a lot of people ( like me) disappointed.

Love this show. Please don’t cancel. Would disappoint lot of people(including me)!

Keep on air, one of best shows on there. Just keep it going on and on!!!!

Man, way more excited to see the season 2 finale. Can’t bear a moth now

Ugh, still a whole month until it comes back. Way to long of break. At least we know it has already be renewed for season 3. But it sucks we only get 5 more episodes and then we have to wait again until fall.

I really hope they continue with Lucifer and Chloe’s romance – waited for them to get together only to have them ripped apart!
