Is it possible for the two rulers of hell from The Sandman and Lucifer to share a screen

“Two of them traveling America together”: Did ‘Lucifer’ Show Runner Hint at a Spinoff With ‘The Sandman’?

One source, two Devils! We are talking about the two diametrically distinct
versions of Lucifer Morningstar on Netflix right now. While both are renditions
of the fallen angel penned down by Neil Gaiman in The Sandman comics, they
couldn’t be more different from one another. If one were to assign songs,
Sympathy for the Devil by the Rolling Stones perfectly matches Tom Ellis’s
version in Lucifer. The Sandman’s Devil by Gwendoline Christie is, without a
doubt, Call Me Devil by Friends in Tokyo. Although, if the two celestial ever
came together, that would be a “Hell” of a party.



The audience absolutely adored Tom Ellis’s iteration of the charming Devil with
daddy issues in the procedural sitcom, Lucifer. So much so that there was an
army of upset fans

after the announcement of the new ruler of hell in Netflix’s adaptation of The
Sandman. Nevertheless, Christie’s dynamic screen presence and amazing
performance eventually won people over. The showrunners of Lucifer have a lot to
say about Gwendoline Christie’s portrayal and even some wishful thinking about a
crossover or possible spinoff.

THE SANDMAN-LUCIFER SPINOFF

Ildy Modrovich and Joe Henderson, the showrunners of Lucifer
[https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/lucifer/], were recently promoting the
Blu-Ray/DVD release of Lucifer season 6. When asked about Gwendoline’s devil
persona, Henderson expressed his love for The Sandman version of Lucifer
Morningstar. He believes
[https://tvline.com/2022/09/07/lucifer-deleted-scenes-final-season-6-dvd-set/]
that Tom Ellis wouldn’t be a good fit in that universe “because her (Christie’s)
Lucifer is cruel, and brutal, and awesome.”

“It would break our hearts if Tom Ellis played that version of it, because ours
is very sweet and kind,” added Henderson. Moreover, season 6 ended on a happy
note for Lucifer and Chloe. We wouldn’t want that to be messed up, right?
However, fans need not be disheartened just yet, as there may be a silver
lining. Henderson wants to bring the two light-bringers together; differences
and all. He wants “to write the road trip spinoff of the two of them traveling
America together and getting in trouble!”



Additionally, if and when The Sandman [http://netflixjunkie.com/tag/the-sandman]
gets renewed for a season 2, there could even be a crossover episode. Lucifer
started off in a totally different direction from Gaiman’s world. However, it
had some connections to the Arroweverse through Crisis on Infinite Earths.
Lucifer’s cameo in the CW show uncovered his devil is set in Earth-666. Though
short-lived, this appearance could mean more crossovers with DC comics and
hopefully in Netflix’s The Sandman.
