What will happen when’s superman meets the Devil? We’ll find out when Smallville star Tom Welling joins Season 3 of Lucifer. The announcement was made at San Diego Comic-Con Saturday.

According to a release, Welling will play Marcus Pierce, “an accomplished police lieutenant who is everything Lucifer (Tom Ellis) is not – strategic, reserved and well-respected.” He’ll also develop a connection with Decker, which Lucifer will be none too pleased about.
