WHY DOES SEASON 6 OF “LUCIFER” NOT HAVE A HAPPY END?

In a new interview with TV Guide, co-showrunners Ildy Modrovich and Joe Henderson clarified why they avoided a happy ending. For them the bond of Chloe and Lucifer transcend a more traditional conclusion like a wedding. In addition, they felt that a bittersweet farewell was more appropriate than an overwhelmingly happy farewell.

“Much of the program is about choice and free will against fate,” Modrovich said. “At the end of the series, Lucifer really realizes that they are linked. We choose our path and this becomes our destiny. I guess the same can be said of our participation in the program. Strange things happened in the path, [pero] I feel like every kind of setback the program has had, has been something really grand in the end. And it has taken the program in a direction that might not have gone. “

Modrovich added: “The difference between [Deckerstar] and another couple is that we had immortality to play with. So we knew they would be together forever, no matter what. And we like to reside in the bittersweet and gray areas. A resounding happy ending simply felt bad, but also a bit tragic. So in the end it was our ideal place to make them sacrifice something, but they ended up together. “

In addition, Henderson explained the need for an adult Rory: “For me, it was because we wanted Lucifer to face himself. And what better way for the eternal teenager to face this and have this young rebel who “Does he represent you in a very different way? You know, the young rebel who is angry with her father. We really wanted to lean on the parallel of Lucifer becoming like her father and having to deal with a different version.” of himself having to understand what his father was like, but also to see himself from a completely different perspective. “
