Films So Good

…and filming is set to take place in Scotland. Author Neil Gaiman announces on his blog the development of Good Omens 2, a six-episode sequel to the first season with Michael Sheen and David Tennant to return as the angel and demon Aziraphale and Crowley respectively. The two actors wiill meet again after their success quarantine-mini-series “Staged”. Gaiman also announce that director Douglas Mackinnon is also returning for the new season.

Gaiman refered that the season two might answerto so many questions people have asked about what happened next to our favourite Angel and Demon. Added Sheen, “Personally I’m against it, but the world isn’t going to just save itself, is it? If David and I can manage to not fall out too badly this time it may even have a chance of getting finished”. Tennant also chimed in, saying that “the return of Good Omens is great news for me, personally. As I get to work with Michael again, and I get to say Neil’s wonderful words once more. It’s probably less good for the universe as it almost certainly means there will be some fresh existential threat to its existence to deal with, but, you know – swings and roundabouts…”Plot

Good Omens was published in 1990 from Gaiman and Terry Pratchett. The book followed the unlikely duo of an angel and demon placed on Earth as they attempt to prevent the coming Apocalypse from the son of Satan. With a host of other colourful characters, they have to stop both Heaven and Hell from beginning the end of times. Good Omens became a huge success and Amazon adapted it to a limited series in 2019. Gaiman and Pratchett had ideas for what a second book may be and while they never got to work on it prior to Pratchett’s passing, Gaiman did use some ideas of their sequel in the miniseries and will incorporate more of their story into the second season. More specifically, in season 2, we will see Aziraphale and Crowley getting back to easy living amongst mortals in London’s Soho when an unexpected messenger presents a surprising mystery.
