Lina Esco joins Tom Ellis for Fox’s supernatural series Lucifer

Last Updated on July 22, 2021

Just days after learning that Fox had found just the Devil they were looking for with Tom Ellis taking on the titular role on the upcoming supernatural series "Lucifer", Deadline is reporting that Lina Esco has signed on to raise a little hell alongside Ellis.

"Lucifer" is based on the DC Comics character originally created (in comic form that is) by Neil Gaiman and centers on…

…Lucifer, who, 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 punish criminals.

Esco, who directed, co-wrote and appeared in the 2014 feature FREE THE NIPPLE, will play Lucifer’s best friend Maze, a fierce demon in the form of a beautiful young woman.

Fox only just gave the show an official pilot order two weeks ago. Len Wiseman is directing the pilot, as well as producing. Jerry Bruckheimer is executive producer. Tom Kapinos penned the first episode.

Yes, girl…free those nipples! We support you!
