Lucifer (The Fallen)

Lucifer (also called "The Light Bringer") is an antagonist appearing in the 2007 ABC Family miniseries Fallen, which is loosely based on the book series The Fallen by Thomas E. Sniegoski.

He was portrayed by Bryan Cranston.

Aaron Corbet, the main character, goes in search of the Light Bringer, the one who wrote the prophecy about the Redeemer, hoping to make sense of his destiny. He finds the Light Bearer in the remains of a temple in the mountains, and the Light Bearer reveals that his actual name is Lucifer and that he is Aaron's biological father. When a shocked Aaron starts to leave the temple, Lucifer blocks him and insists he's not the monster people have made him out to be.

Aaron calms down, and the two of them sit down and talk. Lucifer persuades his son that he has changed and tells him he wants to be redeemed. Aaron agrees to use his powers to redeem Lucifer, but upon touching his father, he experiences a disturbing vision and changes his mind, causing an enraged Lucifer to drop his kindly and affable facade and bring Aaron down to Hell.

Aaron eventually figures out that the only one truly trapped in Hell is Lucifer, and he engages his father in a sword fight. He eventually triumphs over Lucifer and sends him falling off a cliff.
