5 Things We’re Looking Forward to in Season 5 of Lucifer

What do you desire?

 DECKERSTAR

After the heartbreaking ending of last season, we are dying to know what season 5 has in store for Lucifer and Chloe’s relationship. Their dynamic is our favorite aspect of the show and we love the progression from season 1 to now. They both make one another better people and it has been a joy to watch them develop from partners to something more romantic. That balcony scene in particular still haunts us, especially since they have officially declared their love for each other. The feelings are out there! They’ll finally be together! Nope, sadly after 4 seasons, the moment fans were waiting for was left on a devastating cliffhanger as Lucifer leaves Chloe to take his place in Hell. However, we know he is going to make his return and we can’t stop speculating over how beautiful and satisfying that reunion is going to be! Have Chloe’s feelings changed for Lucifer since his heartbreaking decision? How will Lucifer feel towards Chloe when coming back? We are holding our breaths in anticipation of the return August 21st!

    NEW SHIPS!

One ship we are SO excited to see more of in season 5 are Eve and Maze. First off, the representation is amazing and it was clear last season that these two have strong chemistry. Maze befriends Eve and begins to develop feelings for her. We watched as Eve was oblivious to these feelings and was purely focused on getting Lucifer back. A lot of romantic gestures went unnoticed, like when Maze sang to her in an attempt to express her feelings. Of course, this was frustrating to watch, however, the slow burn progression of these two is what makes us love them so much. The writers could have made them just get together in the finale, but that wouldn’t have made sense for Eve’s character arc. She is someone who came to earth and just wanted to get Lucifer back, so it wouldn’t have made sense for her to jump into a relationship right away with Maze. We can’t wait to see Eve stand on her own and grow as an individual on the show because we think her story so far has been so interesting and she has proven to be really badass. We do think that Eve and Maze will grow closer and closer, and in time, we will get canon. It’s going to be beautifully developed and those scenes are definitely one of the top things we are looking forward to.

Ella and Dan have been close friends since the beginning of the show. They have been there for each other through so many difficult times and seeing their slow friendship turn into something more has been sweet. Dan in particular was in a dark place because of his heartbreaking loss, that to finally see him find some kind of happiness was nice. The contrast between Dan’s dark progression and Ella’s light charm made this dynamic even more great to watch.  It was a fun and rewarding surprise to see these two go even further than friendship and lock lips towards the end of season 4! Then in the next episode we see some more cutesy scenes of them being awkward and just not knowing where to go from there. It’s very adorable, innocent, and hilarious. With all the drama and angst happening with most of the couples and characters in season 4, it made it extra sweet to have these two fan favorites share in some steamy bliss, even if it was short. Whether these two are going to stay friends or go forward with a relationship, we can’t wait to see where this relationship goes and how it progresses as it is sure to be really great!

AMENADIEL & LINDA AS PARENTS

At the end of season 4,Linda gives birth to her and Amenadiels son, Charlie. The birth was so sweet and we love that they honored Charlotte Richards’ memory in this way. We don’t see too much of the both of them as parents, since the baby is kidnapped by Dromos and the demons in an attempt to turn him into the next ruler of hell. When Charlie is born, Amenadiel struggles with bringing him to heaven to be raised there. He loses his faith in the human race and feels the best thing for his son is to take him away from Earth. He doesn’t go through with it however, as he couldn’t bear to take Charlie away from Linda. It’s going to be nice to see him and Linda navigate being parents to a half human, half angel baby in season 5. I’m sure we will get so many sweet family scenes with the three of them and it is going to be adorable.

GOD BEING CASTED

A family reunion is on the horizon! Lucifer has casted 24’s Dennis Haysbert to play God. Throughout the show, fans have wondered if the show would eventually bring the famous “dad” that Amenadiel and Lucifer argue and frequently talk about. We know how much Lucifer holds a resentment towards his father, it’s going to be interesting to see how that showdown in particular goes down. There has always been a side of Lucifer that was held back and not fully at peace because of the relationship and history with his dad. It’s definitely going to be exciting to see what kind of character he is and how exactly he gets portrayed. What makes him come down? What does he have to say to his kids? What about Chloe? Besides seeing how his relationship with his family is, we are very curious to learn more about his role in uniting Lucifer and Chloe. What about his grandson Charlie? This season there is a half angel/half human baby in play, we can’t help but wonder how that is going to fit into the overall season arc.There is a lot that can happen with this character and a lot to unpack. We can’t wait to see how it all plays out on screen.

THE MUSICAL EPISODE

It’s finally happening! After seeing little teases here and there on the show of Tom Ellis’s vocal and dancing skills, we are finally getting a musical! The possibilities are endless! What is causing them to break out into song? Are the writers going to tip the hat to Buffy the Vampire Slayer and have a demon follow Lucifer from Hell and show up with the power to have everyone sing out their feelings? No matter what the reasons are, fans everywhere are highly anticipating this episode. Obviously it’s going to be super exciting to see Tom Ellis showcase his talent and voice, but we are just as eagerly thrilled to see all of the other actors bring their own spin to the mix. We can’t help but wonder which musical numbers we’ll get to see. Will Deckerstar have a duet? What about Dan and Ella? Maze and Trixie? Maze and Eve? Amenadiel and Linda?  Amenadiel and Lucifer? What about the new addition of their father, will he get to join in on the music?  Whichever way they spin it, it’s going to be incredible, fun to watch, and we’ll definitely be rewatching and singing along to all the catchy tunes sure to come!
