Amazon recently announced that Good Omens season 2 would exist returning for a six-episode run, and those who read the unmarried novel written by Neil Gaiman and Sir Terry Pratchett uttered a commonage, "Huh?" The testify was logically conceived as a limited serial given that what is now flavour 1 already adjusted the unabridged existing story. However, it turns out that Gaiman, as executive producer, left himself some openings to continue the tale, the seeds of which do exist.

Information technology turns out that Gaiman and the late Pratchett had discussed a possible sequel to their popular collaborative novel, and some elements from that endeavor, which would have been titled 668: The Neighbor of the Beast , take already been introduced. "The fact that we accept Jon Hamm as the impossibly irritating angel Gabriel is something from the sequel we slid back in, [including] the relationship betwixt heaven and hell, where we keep going dorsum and forth betwixt these two appalling places," Gaiman told Diverseness dorsum in 2019.

Amazon has confirmed that Good Omens season 2 will take that conflict at its core while also exploring, co-ordinate to the printing release, "storylines that go beyond the original source textile to illuminate the uncanny friendship between Aziraphale, a fussy angel and rare book dealer, and the fast-living demon Crowley. Having been on Globe since The Beginning and with the Apocalypse thwarted, Aziraphale and Crowley are getting back to easy living amidst mortals in London'southward Soho when an unexpected messenger presents a surprising mystery."

Gaiman elaborated on that last teaser a bit more in a statement tied to the renewal. In Good Omens season 2, he says, "We are back in Soho, and all through fourth dimension and space, solving a mystery, which starts with an angel wandering through Soho, with no memory." Await David Tennant and Michael Sheen to reprise their roles every bit a couple of celestial beings who, possibly temporarily, take fallen off of Heaven and Hell's radar.

Information technology seems unlikely that nosotros'll see many of the other characters from the offset season of Good Omens whose arcs have concluded. The Antichrist will hopefully have his own uneventful but happy childhood, and the Witchfinders won't be necessary with Newton and Anathema blissfully ignorant of whatever prophecies, having forgotten near of the averted apocalypse. But annihilation is possible!

Pratchett'southward brand of humor is in good hands with Gaiman's writing partner for Skillful Omens flavour ii, John Finnemore. The comedy writer is known for his hilarious radio sketch comedy show, John Finnemore's Souvenir Programme , and he was the creator of the radio sitcom Cabin Pressure level , which featured a pre- Sherlock Benedict Cumberbatch. Filming begins for the second flavor later on in 2021 in Scotland.
