The fifth season of Lucifer has been extended.
While the upcoming season may be its last, the Netflix series just got bigger with six additional episodes.
News of the expanded send-off handed out by the streaming giant to the supernatural crime drama was announced Friday via a tweet from its See What’s Next account.
“Lucifer Season 5 just got a HELL of a lot better — and bigger,” it reads. “We’ve added six more hours, for a grand total of 16 episodes!”
Lucifer first aired on Fox, where it ran for three seasons before being axed by the network. It was then picked up by the streaming giant for a fourth season and renewed for a fifth and final installment just last month.
“We are so incredibly thankful to Netflix for … letting us finish the story of Lucifer on our terms. Most importantly, we want to thank the fans for their incredible passion and support. The best is yet to come!” co-showrunner Ildy Modrovich and Joe Henderson said of the original final-season pickup.
