Crisis on Infinite Earths Tom Ellis Explains LUCIFER'S Cameo (Exclusive)
Behind the scenes[]
- Tom Ellis confirmed in an interview that Lucifer's appearance in Crisis on Infinite Earths happened during the 5-year gap in between Lucifer coming to Earth and when the Lucifer series began.[2] This puts John Constantine's visit to Earth-666 during the Crisis (accompanied by John Diggle and Mia Smoak) sometime between 2011 and 2016 in that Earth's timeline.
- The card with an illustration of the Devil playing the piano is a reference to Lucifer's expertise as a pianist.
- In the DC Comics, although the senior member of the Satanic Triumvirate, the First of the Fallen, a.k.a. Satan, is sometimes confused with Lucifer, who is instead the fourth of the fallen.
- It is unclear whether Earth-666 and Earth-1 have separate Hells or if the Triumvirate came to power after Lucifer abdicated, as in the comics.
- However, the show Lucifer explicitly states that there's only one Devil of Earth-666. In addition, the Hell featured is a dark and ash-filled endless maze of doors with the damned locked behind them, by contrast to the city seen in the Arrowverse.
- His Earth is the only one where of super-powered beings, there's no meta-humans in it.
