To say Lucien's audition process for Scream Queens was an emotional rollercoaster would be an understatement. After sending in an audition tape from the UK, the actor was invited to an in-person audition with the series's director, Ryan Murphy. Within a hour of leaving the studio, Lucien got a phone call saying he didn't get the part. "I was devastated," he told Fox 11 Los Angeles. "I knew it was something that I really really wanted."
If you've seen the horror series, then you know Lucien's audition journey has a happy ending. Later that same day, the actor got a follow-up call from Murphy, who told him he was going to write him into the script; he wanted Lucien to be a series regular. His character's name was Earl Grey, a playful nod to his British roots.
