The hit show, Lucifer is coming to a close as the second part of the final episode will premiere on May 28, 2021. The Netflix show has gone through some ups and downs during its time on air. It originally aired on Fox until it was canceled after the third season, but after immense social media support from fans, the show returned on Netflix.
Lucifer's main cast has been on a miraculous journey for six years and when it was announced that the production had come to an end, Tom Ellis and his co-stars shared heartfelt messages on Instagram. After the final episode of the show, where will the actors go next? Some have already moved on to new projects, while others are still up in the air around what the future holds.
10 Tricia Helfer
Tricia Helfer made her debut on the show as Lucifer's mother and as the character Charlotte Richards. Her storyline had emotional moments for Lucifer, as well as put some characters in danger. While being a part of Lucifer, Helfer also had a role in the SyFy fantasy horror drama, Van Helsing.
She plays the role of Dracula in season four. As the show is set to premiere its fifth and final season, Helfer might make her return as the character following the storyline from the previous season. Fans will also get to see Helfer in a stop motion animated short titled, Save Ralph and her recurring role as Erin in Step Up: High Water is still to be announced.
9 Tom Welling
Tom Welling may have been known for playing one of television's beloved versions of Superman, but he rubbed people the wrong way in Lucifer. He played the role of Cain/Pierce in season three, the new police Lieutenant who starts dating Chloe but soon wants to kill her and Lucifer.
With Lucifer's official ending, it's unclear where Welling will head next. His most recent role was in 2020 in the television program, Professionals. The show centered around a medical satellite that explodes and a billionaire and his fiancée turn to a counterintelligence officer for help. The show had 10 episodes in its first season.
8 Scarlett Estevez
Actor Scarlett Estevez was the most loveable and joyful character on the show. Estevez plays the role of Chloe's daughter, Trixie and she softens the more hardened characters, like Lucifer, and develops a friendship with Maze. From 2019 to 2020, she had a main role as Gwen in Bunk'd.
Estevez is already on her way to a new role after Lucifer. Thanks to the actor's Instagram account, fans got to see Estevez in her new future role in the Disney series, Ultra Violet and Blue Demon. According to Deadline, it's a superhero coming-of-age luchador action-comedy with Estevez in the lead role as Ultra Violet.
7 Aimee Garcia
When it comes to the most joyful, bright, and upbeat character in Lucifer, the title goes to Ella Lopez, played by Aimee Garcia. Ella is the squads' forensic scientist and fans also got a look into her darker past. While still being a part of Lucifer, Garcia took part in a couple of movies - one as Vanessa in El Chicano and another where she voiced the character of Denise in The Addams Family animated reboot.
Moving forward after Lucifer's end, Garcia is also already set to take part in voicing the main role of Jodie in Marvel's M.O.D.O.K. The show is a stop motion adult animated series for Hulu and the storyline involves a supervillain obsessed with taking over the world who hates superheroes. The supervillain soon faces a mid-life crisis with his New Jersey suburban family and his wife, Jodie.
6 Rachael Harris
Fans are first introduced to the character of Dr. Linda Martin, played by Rachael Harris, as Lucifer's psychiatrist and sexual partner. Her storyline quickly evolves into becoming his closest friend, accepting his real identity, and falling in love with Amenadiel.
Harris's last project was in 2020 in the television special, Make It Work! about a group of women helping in the fight against COVID-19. As of late, there are no future roles planned yet for the actor. Instead, she focuses her attention on charity work for United Cerebral Palsy of Central Florida.
5 D.B. Woodside
D.B. Woodside plays the role of Amendiel on Lucifer. The angel is tasked with convincing his brother to return to Hell and from the first season, the character goes through some major storyline changes for the better. In 2019, Woodside had another recurring role in the political drama, Pearson, as Jeff Malone.
The actor gives no hints on what's next after Lucifer comes to end, but fans can only hope that they will get to see more of Woodside on the small screen.
4 Kevin Alejandro
Fans have come to love the character of Daniel "Dan" Espinoza, played by Kevin Alejandro. In the beginning, he wasn't the best, as he took part in a corrupt scheme with another officer. Dan also wasn't fond of Lucifer and his relationship with Chloe, but fans couldn't help but admire his love for pudding.
In 2020, Alejandro took part in a romance movie titled The Lost Husband as a character named Danny. Alejandro is also set to play the role of Greg in a movie short titled, For Every Good Invention. Alejandro also has his own production company, Alejandro Films, so perhaps fans will see more from him via this avenue in the future.
3 Lesley-Ann Brandt
Lesley-Ann Brandt dazzled fans with her tough-as-nails portrayal of her character, Mazikeen, on Lucifer. The demon of Hell soon started to show her vulnerabilities, feelings of loneliness, and her capabilities of being a good and bad friend. It's safe to say that fans started sympathizing for Maze, while also thinking she's a badass.
Brandt was one of the cast members to share a long and heartfelt letter to the show's fans on Instagram after the show wrapped up . It's currently unclear if fans will get to see Brandt in another role on the big or small screen anytime soon, but everyone is crossing their fingers.
2 Lauren German
Lauren German plays the lead role on Lucifer as Detective Chloe Decker, the love interest and partner of Lucifer Morningstar. Chloe, at first, thinks Lucifer is too much of a playboy and nuisance. However, she soon opens up to him, develops feelings for him, and then learns that he really is the Devil. This newfound reality doesn't go so well.
Fans enjoyed the character nonetheless. German has dedicated the past six years to her role of Chloe Decker. There's no news of any upcoming projects, movies, or series for the actor.
1 Tom Ellis
The immaculately dressed Lord of Hell is played by no other than Tom Ellis. Ellis quickly became a fan-favorite character and between the fun witty remarks, the luxurious life, and charisma, Lucifer could tempt anyone. The character also came with deep-rooted scars and family issues.
Fans will be happy to know that they will soon see Ellis in another role - this time, in the Netflix rom-com titled Players. According to Deadline, he will star alongside Gina Rodriguez and Damon Wayans Jr. The movie follows a sportswriter who creates hook-up "plays" with her best friend. However, she didn't expect to fall head over heels for her target and has to reevaluate her game plan.
