Woo hoo! The official trailer for Season 2 of Good Omens has dropped!
I can’t wait, I can’t wait, I can’t wait! I loved the book and the TV adaptation of it, and like a kazillion other fans am as excited as all get-out for Season 2 of Good Omens to arrive.
While Season 1 of the hit fantasy series starring David Tennant (Doctor Who, Broadchurch, Staged) and Michael Sheen (Masters of Sex, Prodigal Son, Staged) was based on the well-loved and internationally best-selling novel Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman, the second season explores storylines that go beyond the original source material to illuminate the ineffable friendship between Aziraphale (Michael Sheen), a fussy angel and rare-book dealer, and the fast-living demon Crowley (David Tennant).
Having been on Earth since The Beginning, and with the Apocalypse thwarted, the duo are getting back to easy living amongst mortals in London’s Soho. That is, until the archangel Gabriel (Jon Hamm, Mad Men) turns up unexpectedly at the door of Aziraphale’s bookshop with no memory of who he is or how he got there. While Crowley is leery as to why the archangel has come to the bookshop, Aziraphale is keen to solve the mystery behind Gabriel’s condition — a mystery that takes us from before The Beginning, to biblical times, grave robbing in Victorian Edinburgh, the Blitz of 1940s England, all the way through to the modern day.
However, hiding the archangel from both Heaven and Hell quickly disrupts their lives in unforeseen ways. To solve this mystery and thwart Heaven and Hell in the process, the duo will need more than a miracle; they’ll need to once again rely on each other.
In addition to Michael Sheen, David Tennant, and Jon Ham, also reprising their roles are Doon Mackichan (Two Doors Down) as archangel Michael and Gloria Obianyo (Outlander) as archangel Uriel. Returning this season in new roles are Miranda Richardson (Harry Potter) as demon Shax, Maggie Service (Quiz) as Maggie, and Nina Sosanya (Last Tango in Halifax) as Nina. Joining the misfits in Heaven and Hell are Liz Carr (Silent Witness) as angel Saraqael, Quelin Sepulveda (The Man Who Fell to Earth) as angel Muriel, and Shelley Conn (Bridgerton) as demon Beelzebub.
Good Omens: Season 2 premieres globally on Friday, July 28, exclusively on Prime Video. (You can add it to your watchlist now.)
