In conjunction with Comic-Con, FOX revealed that Tom Welling will be joining the cast of “Lucifer” in season three.

The “Smallville” alumnus will play Marcus Pierce, a police lieutenant who is everything Lucifer (Tom Ellis) is not: “strategic, reserved and well-respected.”

He does, however, share Lucifer’s charm, charisma and looks. And he may be developing a connection with Chloe (Lauren German).

Season three will find Lucifer trying to figure out who kidnapped him — and why his wings have been restored.
