The second season of the Good Omens television show, which is produced by Amazon and based on the novel written by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett, is now in production.
Prime Video will soon release the much-anticipated second season of the supernatural drama Good Omens. Here is all that we know about the upcoming season so far, including any details regarding the release date, the cast, the plot, and more.
About Good Omens
The Amazon original series Good Omens was a smashing success when it premiered in May 2019, and the fun fantasy show will be back on our screens in 2023. The first season, starring Michael Sheen, followed the story of angel Aziraphale (derived from Neil Gaiman) and demon Crowley (Terry Pratchett).
Despite working for Heaven and Hell, respectively, the two creatures decide to work together to stop the antichrist from bringing Armageddon to Earth because they have become fond of their mortal home throughout the millennia they have been on Earth.
Even though the first season of Good Omens was supposed to be a limited series and adapted the whole novel, a second season is in the works.
When Will Good Omens Season 2 Be Released?
After being announced at the New York Comic Con in October 2022, the release window was later verified by the official Good Omens Twitter account, and the actual release date was revealed on May 10. On July 28, 2023, Prime Video will premiere the second season of Good Omens.
Who Will Return in Good Omens Season 2?
Crowley, the demon, and Aziraphale, the angel, are played, respectively, by David Tennant and Michael Sheen. Also repeating their roles are Doon Mackichan as Archangel Michael and Gloria Obianyo as Archangel Uriel.
Jon Hamm will play the part of Archangel Gabriel. A few of the actors from the first season are back for the second, but they are portraying new roles. For example, Miranda Richardson, who played the psychic Madame Tracy in the first season, is now Shax, a demon.
Maggie Service and Nina Sosanya, who played nuns in the first season, are now neighbouring business owners named Maggie and Nina, respectively. New members of the cast have been introduced for the upcoming season.
Quelin Sepulveda will play the character of Muriel, an angel who is both feisty and naive, Liz Carr will play the angel Saraqael, and Shelly Conn will play the new face of the demon Beelzebub (Anna Maxwell Martin, who originated the role, will not be returning due to schedule difficulties).
The Plot: What Will Happen in Good Omens Season 2?
Neil Gaiman, who has returned to the helm of Good Omens as showrunner, provided a few brief insights into what viewers may look forward to during an official statement regarding the show’s renewal. Despite the fact that not much has been released about the plot of the upcoming season of Good Omens, the program has been renewed for a third season.
The author pondered on the time when he and Terry Pratchett first started plotting a prospective sequel to the novel in the statement, mentioning: “I got to use bits of the sequel in Good Omens, that’s where our angels come from.” Terry is no longer with us, but when he was, we discussed our plans for the sequel to Good Omens and where we wanted the tale to go from there.
When asked about Season 2, Gaiman stated, “We are back in Soho and all throughout time and space, solving a mystery, which starts with an angel wandering through Soho, with no memory.” This statement was made in clear reference to the second season.
Based on the information presented above, it is safe to conclude that Heaven and Hell, and the angels in particular, will continue to play a significant part in the future season. It is also possible that we may get some peeks into the backstory of Aziraphale and Crowley.
In a video sent to Twitter by Amazon Studios a year ago, Neil Gaiman referred to the season as “quiet and gentle, and romantic.” Because of this, some viewers have speculated that the primary angel and demon on the show might have romantic feelings for each other.
