By Mulder, 10 may 2023

This summer, there's something going on up there!

The second season of Good Omens will debut July 28 on Prime Video. After the worldwide success and enthusiastic reception of the first season, co-creator Neil Gaiman will delight fans of the unholy and beloved duo with a brand new and original story. The launch date for Season 2 was revealed on the 33rd anniversary of the publication of Terry Pratchett and Gaiman's original novel Of Good Omens, which served as the basis for the first season of the television series. To celebrate, Gaiman collaborated with Hillywood Show super fans Hilly & Hannah Hindi to reveal the date in a fan-funded video, "Good Omens Parody," available here. The six-episode season will air exclusively on Prime Video on July 28 in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide. Prime members in the U.S. enjoy exclusive Prime Flash Sales, expedited shipping and access to the best in entertainment in one subscription for just €6.99/month or the low price of €69.90/year.

The second season of Good Omens explores storylines that go beyond the original book to highlight the strange friendship between Aziraphale, a demanding angel and rare book dealer, and the fast-living demon Rampa. Having been on Earth since the Beginning and the foiled Apocalypse, Aziraphale and Rampa are back to living quietly among mortals in London's Soho district, when an unexpected messenger presents them with a surprising mystery.

The second season of Good Omens stars Michael Sheen and David Tennant as the angel Aziraphale and the demon Rampa respectively. Jon Hamm as the Archangel Gabriel, Doon Mackichan as the Archangel Michael and Gloria Obianyo as the Archangel Uriel also reprise their roles. Miranda Richardson as the demon Shax, Maggie Service as Maggie and Nina Sosanya as Nina return this season in new roles, and new faces join the evildoers of Heaven and Hell: Liz Carr as the angel Saraqael, Quelin Sepulveda as the angel Muriel, and Shelley Conn as the demon Beelzebub.

Neil Gaiman remains executive producer and co-showrunner with executive producer Douglas Mackinnon, who returns to direct all six episodes. Narrativia's Rob Wilkins, who represents Terry Pratchett's estate, John Finnemore, and Josh Cole, head of comedy at BBC Studios Productions, are also executive producers, with Finnemore co-writing alongside Gaiman. Good Omens is based on Pratchett and Gaiman's critically acclaimed international best-selling novel. The new season is produced by Amazon Studios, BBC Studios Productions, The Blank Corporation and Narrativia.

Synopsis :
An unlikely duo, a demanding Angel and a free-living Demon, have taken a liking to life on Earth and are forced to form an alliance to stop Armageddon.
