'Lucifer': Gwendoline Christie, Roger Allam Cast as Lucifer and Azazel
Exclusive: 'Game of Thrones' Star Joins Netflix Series
'Good Omens' Actor to Play Prince of Hell
Two major roles have been cast for Netflix's upcoming series "Lucifer," which is based on the DC Comics character of the same name. Gwendoline Christie ("Game of Thrones") will play Lucifer Morningstar, the Lord of Hell, while Roger Allam ("Good Omens") will play Azazel, a fallen angel who is Lucifer's right-hand man.
The casting of Christie and Allam is a major coup for the series, as both actors are well-respected and have a large following. Christie is best known for her role as Brienne of Tarth in "Game of Thrones," while Allam is known for his roles in "Good Omens," "The Thick of It," and "Endeavour."
The addition of Christie and Allam to the cast is sure to raise the profile of "Lucifer," which is already one of Netflix's most anticipated new series. The series is set to premiere in 2020.
