Following the epic conclusion of Smallville in 2011, series star Tom Welling chose to stay out of the limelight for a few years, but it now looks like he's ready to jump back into the fray and he's just signed on for a major role in the upcoming season of FOX TV's Lucifer.

Variety is reporting that Welling will play Marcus Paige, an accomplished police lieutenant who, unlike Tom Ellis' title character, is described as reserved and well-respected. However, he does have a few similarities with Lucifer as they are both charming, charismatic, and handsome, which causes issues for Lucifer when Pierce strikes a connection with Lauren German's Chloe Decker.

Check out the official Comic-Con trailer for season four below:

Season Two of Lucifer promises to be the mother of all seasons as Lucifer (Tom Ellis) finds himself tasked with tracking down his mother, Charlotte (Tricia Helfer) while continuing to punish criminals alongside LAPD detective Chloe Decker (Lauren German). At the end of Season One, Chloe watched Lucifer die, only to come back to life, causing more confusion over who he really is. Now, Lucifer and his angel brother, Amenadiel (DB Woodside), will work together for one common goal – to find their mother, who escaped Hell. After all, Lucifer doesn’t take after his dad, so the parent he does resemble is sure to be quite terrifying. With mom on the loose, Dr. Linda (Rachael Harris), who’s become not only a therapist, but also a confidante to Lucifer, Amenadiel and Maze, will surely have a lot of advice to dole out. And, by the time she’s done, she may need a therapist of her own!

Lucifer features:
Tom Ellis as Lucifer Morningstar
Lauren German as Chloe Decker
Kevin Alejandro as Dan Espinoza
D.B. Woodside as Amenadiel
Lesley-Ann Brandt as Mazikeen
Aimee Garcia as Ella Lopez
Scarlett Estevez as Trixie Espinoza
Rachael Harris as Linda Martin
Tom Welling as Marcus Pierce

@Doomsday8888 - I'm surprised that they haven't gotten him to crossover into the Arrowverse yet, even for one episode.

The best live action version of Superman. Except maybe Reeve.

My boy Tom. Glad he's back to work. Still holding out for a Kingdom Come-like reunion with this cast in maybe 10 years or so.

Smallville is the best. Seriously didn't give it enough credit when I was looking back on it when the CW/DCTV shows started. I'm currently in the beginning of season 6 of my rewatch. Loving it.

Well, that's Lucifer off my watch list. I suppose I should be thankful for the advance warning.
