Question about the guy in a black robe


Y'all remember the part at the very beginning of this movie where this mysterious guy in a black robe comes, kisses his finger-tips and then uses those "kissed finger-tips" to touch the ground?

After that, he turns into a bunch of crows that fly away.


Then the ground starts cracking and out comes Gabriel.

So who is this dude?

reply

I think that was Lucifer (from the first movie). If I remember correctly, he says "Hell is not big enough for two of us". Something along those lines.
Also, later on in the movie, someone says to Gabriel that not even Lucifier wanted him (maybe that was in the 3rd movie, I can't really remember now).

reply

Yeah I thought so.

He looked cool don't you think?

reply

It was Lucifer in the begining releasing Gabriel from hell

Later on it was Micheal whho told Gabriel "Not even Lucifer will have you".

reply

it wasn't the same person as in the first ovie, in the first movie lucifer is played by viggo mortensen, but he refused the role in the second movie. But the guy whit the black robe is Lucifer.

Somebody left the door open and the wrong dogs came home.

reply

yea thats also probably why they dont show his face, they just do the close up and then his back, and he kinda looks like viggo; although i dont know why viggo wouldnt do the cameo

reply

It was Lucifer, played by Viggo in the first one. Looks like he didn't come back for this film. Too bad, he was great as the devil in the first one. See if you haven't already. That's why they didn't show his face. Anyway, in the first one, he beats Gabriel's butt and drags him off to hell.
