‘Lucifer’ Season 4 Air Date, Spoilers: Likely Release Dates Predicted; Could Compete with ‘Game of Thrones’

Netflix has developed a reputation for coyness when it comes to details about its shows, but its reluctance to provide a premiere date for “Lucifer” Season 4 is driving some fans up the wall. It has even led to a lot of predictions with regards to both the details of the upcoming season and when it will likely come out. So far, among the most fitting is the symbolically suggestive Good Friday.

As CarterMatt points out, Netflix has been really good at planning out its strategy with regards to its shows. While other networks might think it’s crazy to announce a new offering like “Black Mirror: Bandersnatch” one day before it came out, the streaming service did it like it was nothing. This is why its approach with regards to “Lucifer” Season 4 has drawn so much interest.

How exactly will the company handle something as full of symbolism as this supernatural series? Short of concrete details from Netflix itself, publications have been coming up with their own predictions. Among the most appealing are Valentine’s Day and Good Friday. That is to say, a trailer for “Lucifer” Season 4 could drop on the day of love and could premiere on the holy date.

The symbolism with regards to those suggested dates cannot be ignored, with love and passion, coupled with corporate greed being what Valentine’s is all about. There would also be a certain amount of irony if “Lucifer” Season 4 does end up becoming available for streaming on one of Christianity’s most holy occasions.

If Netflix wants maximum impact for marketing “Lucifer” Season 4, those two dates are worth keeping in mind, with one being Feb. 14 and the other being April 19. On the other hand, if the upcoming season does end up premiering in April, it could compete with “Game of Thrones” Season 8. The last season of HBO’s hugely popular fantasy series will be coming out then, after all.
