Lucifer Season 6 Spoilers: BTS Changes for Episode 9 Confirmed

The most popular series “Lucifer” is nearing its end with the final season – Season 6 already in the works. But, there have been behind the scene changes in the upcoming season, especially related to the director’s chair.

It seems that for Episode 9 in the final season, our favorite Kevin Alejandro will take up the reins, as director Karen Gaviola has to quit due to his very busy schedule.

“In a post on Twitter, Chris Rafferty confirmed that original 6×09 director Karen Gaviola is not going to be able to direct due to scheduling changes. Now, cast member Kevin Alejandro is stepping back into the chair,” as reported by Cartermatt.

With so many speculations and fan theories going around, fans are not sure of what to expect in the grand finale. In fact, with season 5B yet to premiere, there are a lot of possible storylines. Especially with God’s entry, there are even speculations of getting to know more about Lucifer’s powers and history.

Talking about how God’s arrival will our favorite Devil, co-showrunner Joe Henderson said that “So much of Lucifer’s relationship with God is about this distance. What was interesting is casting someone who had that inherent warmth, plays against the type you’d expect, but also leans into sort of the fatherly energy that he gives. He has that presence of the Father that you don’t want to disappoint. And the father that seems warm, but also probably could get angry at you at a moment’s notice. He’s an incredible energy to have on the show. And it opens up Lucifer in ways he has chosen to close off previously as the ‘wayward son,'” according to Comic Book.

As of now, the writers have made it clear that the God appearing after almost an eternity in front of his sons, has actually got something to do with his question for his devilish son. Though, there has been no hint on what the question would be?

Lucifer Season 5B: Ep 13 – “A Little Harmless Stalking” Will Be A Big Linda Episode

When “Lucifer” comes back again with the second part of “Season 5,” there will be a big Linda episode, in which fans will get to see a total new side of her character, in a deep emotional level.

Richard Speight Jr., the director of the episode “A Little Harmless Stalking” claimed that the particular installment will revolve around the fan favorite character Dr. Linda Martin, and that it will a “powerful episode on several levels.

“My second episode teaches a lot on Rachael Harris’ character, Dr. Linda. She plays very heavy in my episode, which, by the way, was a real treat, because she’s a powerhouse actress and funny as all get out, so that was a delight. So much of my episode really centers around her. There of course is always the powerhouse wizardry of Tom Ellis and his storyline, but my episode specifically wasn’t hammering home that through-line,” Speight told The Wrap.

“Without saying anything that I shouldn’t say, Dr. Linda gets in over her head in a situation that is very unlike her to get involved in — but she does so for reasons that will make sense as the show progresses,” Speight added. “So it’s not always the funny Dr. Linda. You know, we see funny Dr. Linda, but this is also — there’s a lot of heart to her character and we see a lot of that heart in this episode.”

Speight, the “Supernatural” alum, was the also the director of “BlueBallz” – Episode 6 of the first part of Season 5. He will also most likely be directing an episode in the final Season 6 of “Lucifer.”

“Whenever you play [with] flashbacks, the question is always, ‘What’s the time frame that can reflect a person?’ What’s nice about noir is it’s detective stories, but Lucifer isn’t a detective yet. So what we’re almost seeing, to a certain extent, is Lucifer’s first case,” co-showrunner Joe Henderson tells EW. “There is a case, there is a mystery to solve, but it’s just more filtering our [show’s] language through noir.”

“Tom Ellis is made for this style. He kind of is Cary Grant. I think there’s always been something about his portrayal of Lucifer [that’s] old school, that harkens back to the extravagance and elegance of old Hollywood and just noir,” says co-showrunner Ildy Modrovich, explaining why they picked this era.”There was a moment in our arc where Lucifer needed to give us a little backstory on a character and tell us what happened to [him] a long time ago and we thought, ‘Perfect moment for a Princess Bride moment. So, let’s open it up and have Lucifer tell this story to someone. And if we’re really doing an homage to Princess Bride, that person should be Trixie [Scarlett Estevez].'”
