We saw Neil Gaiman and the late Terry Pratchett’s novel Good Omens brought to the screen in 2019, with the TV adaptation starring David Tennant and Michael Sheen.
It wasn’t clear if there’d be a second season, as the first covered the content of the novel. Earlier this year, Gaiman confirmed that he would be moving forward with a follow-up season.
While it saddens him to do so without his friend and collaborator Pratchett, he’s been able to power through, saying in a statement, “I miss having Terry Pratchett’s genius, but it does feel like we are still all walking around inside his head. It’s been an absolute pleasure to have the brilliant John Finnemore co-write this season’s story shenanigans with me, and to work with director and my co-showrunner Douglas Mackinnon as he steers the ship, along with our astonishing crew, who have returned to do it again,” reports ComingSoon.net.
Gaiman also talks about what we can look forward to, saying, “In this season we get to have new adventures with old friends, to solve some extremely mysterious mysteries, and we encounter some entirely new humans (living, dead, and otherwise), angels, and demons. We were lucky in the first season to have so many outstanding actors taking part, so I took pleasure in inviting people back, wherever we could, some in the roles they played originally, some in new parts written just for them.”
Inviting people back? Oh, like Tennant and Sheen. Whew! It wouldn’t be the same without them.
Gaiman didn’t just release a statement, but he’s shared photos of the two on-set.

And, a peek at them in character:

If you’re not familiar with the storyline, Good Omens revolves around an angel and demon who team up to save the world from an apocalypse.
Sheen stars at the angel Aziraphale, with Tennant as the devil Crowley.
Prior to filming, Sheen was concerned he’d be cast as Crowley, as he had more of an affinity for Aziraphale, but he went to dinner with Gaiman and the two talked it through, which you can read about in this write-up over at The Wrap.
If that weren’t enough to get you geared up for season two, here’s the official synopsis: “The new 6-episode season will explore storylines that go beyond the original source material to illuminate the uncanny friendship between Aziraphale, a fussy angel and rare book dealer, and the fast-living demon Crowley,” reads the synopsis. “Having been on Earth since The Beginning, and with the Apocalypse thwarted, Aziraphale and Crowley are getting back to easy living amongst mortals in London’s Soho when an unexpected messenger presents a surprising mystery.”
The second season for Good Omens is expected to premiere in 2022 via Amazon Prime in the U.S. and BBC in the U.K.
