Good Omens co-author and showrunner Neil Gaiman shared an update on a possible release date for Season 2 of the Prime Video series.
In response to a fan who asked about any updates for Season 2, Gaiman confirmed that the next installment of Good Omens will release "when it is done." He continued, "We only stopped shooting in March. There is much to be done."
Series director Douglas Mackinnon announced that filming had officially wrapped on Good Omens Season 2 in March. Gaiman has shared several updates for the upcoming season on his blog, including a scrap from the series' real script, which features a few lines of dialogue between Aziraphale and Crowley. Good Omens stars David Tennant as Crowley and Michael Sheen as the angel Aziraphale.
Based on the original 1990 novel, Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch, written by Gaiman and Terry Pratchett, Season 1 of the television adaptation aired its first six episodes on Prime Video on May 13, 2019. A co-production by Amazon Studios and BBC Studios, the first season -- much like the book -- followed the angel Aziraphale and the demon Crowley, who -- having grown accustomed to life on Earth -- attempt to prevent the coming of the Antichrist and, by extension, the end of the world. The series is directed by Mackinnon, with Gaiman serving as creator, writer and showrunner.
Mackinnon shared a photo of Tennant and Sheen returning to the set of Good Omens before filming began on Season 2 in October 2021. The photos only featured the eyes and hair color of the respective actors, but it is enough to tease that the series' lead actors had returned to film the second season. It was announced in June 2021 that Good Omens was renewed for a second season, with Sheen and Tennant returning as well.
"The new 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," Amazon said of Good Omens 2. "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."
Season 2 of Good Omens doesn't yet have a release date. Season 1 is available to stream on Prime Video.
