Lucifer: Lauren German Honors Stunt Team, Left Us Doing Double-Take

Another day, another look at what's going on in the world of Netflix's Lucifer now that work's underway on the sixth and final season. Between co-showrunner Joe Henderson and cast members Tom Ellis, Lesley-Ann Brandt (Maze), and Inbar Lavi (Eve), Lucifans have been treated to a steady stream of both teasers and behind-the-scenes looks at what's to come from an insider's perspective. That "insider's perspective" was on display recently when Lauren German (Chloe Decker) took to her Instagram Stories to celebrate the hard work and dedication put forth by the show's stunt teams. After looking at the clip, our three biggest takeaways? First, that we couldn't agree with German more and we're glad to see that the artistry of stunt work is finally being recognized more around awards season. Second, holy s**t Ellis and his stunt actor double look way more alike than I expected. So much so that if it wasn't for the masks, we would definitely get confused. Third, we're starting to reconsider our opinions on non-gray, blue, or black suits.

Here's a look at the start of German's post, throwing major love to the folks who help make the action look so good:

While Lucifans wait for news on the series' return (we mat have given up trying to predict a date), here's a look back at those two special "fan-cam" moments offering brief teases of what fans will be getting when the second half of Season 5 debuts. At the end of the first clip, Chloe Decker wants to know where God (Dennis Haysbert) took his family. In the second clip, viewers get a look back at the first half of the season before a brief look at what's to come- with "dear old dad" God having to ask Lucifer something…

Lucifer, bored and unhappy as the Lord of Hell, resigns his throne and abandons his kingdom for the gorgeous, shimmering insanity of Los Angeles, where he gets his kicks helping the LAPD…and the savvy detective Chloe Decker in particular. In Part A of season 5, Lucifer's twin brother Michael secretly takes the devil's place on earth while he's back in Hell. Eventually, Lucifer must return and face the mess his brother made with his life. He'll also finally confront his feelings for Chloe, and answer a question fans have been asking since the very beginning: "will they or won't they"?

Last month, Lucifans learned that Merrin Dungey (Big Little Lies, Star Trek: Picard) and Brianna Hildebrand (Deadpool, Tragedy Girls) were joining the cast for its final season. Dungey's Sonya is a no-nonsense uniform cop who forms an unlikely bond with Amenadiel. Hildebrand's Rory is a rebellious, angsty, and ready-to-start-some-trouble angel hoping to follow in Lucifer's footsteps. Small problem. It doesn't take too long for Rory to realize Lucifer isn't exactly the devilish big bro she hoped he'd be.

Speaking of the sixth season, how about some intel on the episodes in the form of titles, directors, and writers? Because that's what the show's writers have offered over the past few weeks. For our first eight chapters, we have (with directors/writers) "Nothing Ever Changes Around Here" (Kevin Alejandro/ Mike Costa), "Buckets of Baggage" (Richard Speight Jr. / Jen Graham Imada), "Yabba Dabba Do Me" (Nathan Hope / Joe Henderson), "Pin the Tail on the Baddie" (Viet Nguyen / Carly Woodworth), "The Murder of Lucifer Morningstar" (Lisa Demaine / Lloyd Gilyard Jr.), "A Lot Dirtier Than That" (Claudia Yarmy / Ildy Modrovich), "My Best Fiend" (Nathan Hope / Julia Fontana), "Save the Devil, Save the World" (DB Woodside / Aiyana White), and "Goodbye, Lucifer" (Karen Gaviola / Chris Rafferty).
