To celebrate the fourth anniversary of the release of the first series of the Amazon Prime comedy drama Good Omens, the streamer has given fans a sneak peek at the second season in the shape of the title sequence. The Peter Anderson Studio animated sequence once again features the celestial duo of Crowley and Aziraphale, as played by David Tennant and Michael Sheen, marching through a series of landscapes that are allegedly full of clues to the plot of the upcoming episodes.
After the global success and enthusiastic response to the first season, co-creator Neil Gaiman is satisfying fans’ hunger for more on-screen adventures of the beloved unholy duo. Where the original novel Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch by Terry Pratchett and Gaiman was the basis for the first season of the television series, Season Two is an entirely original story and explores 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.
In Season Two of Good Omens, following on from the
near Apocalypse of Season One, Aziraphale and Crowley are getting back to easy
living amongst mortals in London’s Soho when an unexpected messenger presents a
surprising mystery.
Also reprising their roles alongside David Tennant and
Michael Sheen are Jon Hamm as archangel Gabriel, Doon Mackichan as archangel
Michael, and Gloria Obianyo as archangel Uriel. Returning this season in new
roles are Miranda Richardson as demon Shax, Maggie Service as Maggie, and Nina
Sosanya as Nina, with new faces joining the misfits in Heaven and Hell: Liz
Carr as angel Saraqael, Quelin Sepulveda as angel Muriel, and Shelley Conn as
demon Beelzebub. Neil Gaiman continues as executive producer and co-showrunner
along with executive producer Douglas Mackinnon, who also returned to direct
all six episodes.
The six-episode season will be released exclusively on
Prime Video on July 28 in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide.
