Tom Welling is coming back to the DC universe!
The Smallville star has officially joined the cast of FOX’s Lucifer for their upcoming third season and will be playing the role of Marcus Pierce, an accomplished police lieutenant who is everything Lucifer (Tom Ellis) is not – strategic, reserved and well-respected. But perhaps even more annoying are all the things they have in common. Both men are charming, charismatic and handsome as hell. So when Pierce starts developing a connection with Decker (Lauren German), Lucifer’s devilish traits are inflamed.
Entering its third season, the story of the original fallen angel continues, when Lucifer returns Monday, Oct. 2 in its new time period (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) on Fox. As Season 2 came to a close, Lucifer took care of a little problem called Mom, aka Charlotte (Tricia Helfer). But now he’s facing an even greater one – finding out who kidnapped him, and why his angel wings are back.
