Good Omens, which became one of Amazon Prime Video’s front-rank shows when it premiered last May, will continue on the streaming service if the executive team has any say in it.
“We’re lucky to have an ongoing relationship with Neil” Gaiman, the series co-creator, Amazon’s TV co-head Vernon Sanders said during Saturday’s TCA executive session. “We’re so excited about how Season 1 has done for us. The notion has come up about whether we can revisit that world. It’s in Neil’s hands now but we’d love to do it. We’re finding that it just takes a little time, perhaps, in the case of Neil. But whatever he wants to do, we’re interested in.”
Gaiman and late co-author Terry Pratchett’s 1990 book, Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch, was the basis of the show’s debut season.

In the last episode of “Good Omens,” the Amazon adaptation of Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett’s novel of the same name, a 500-foot-tall Satan rises from the ground to confront his son (Sam Taylor Buck), the antichrist with the power to bring about the end of the world. On most shows, such a confrontation would likely be enveloped in hellfire and demonic images aimed to terrify, but Gaiman and his team went the opposite direction. Instead, they worked to create an enthralling yet intimate portrayal of a rebellious son rejecting his absentee father, who happens to be voiced by Benedict Cumberbatch.

When mulling over who could do justice to the voice of Satan on “Good Omens,” the only name that popped up in Neil Gaiman’s mind was Benedict Cumberbatch — but not for the reason you might think.
“It was from the point of view of going, ‘Ok you’re in a show in which Frances McDormand is God,'” Gaiman tells Variety. “And we need somebody who can act — who is not going to be just blown off the screen by the idea of Frances McDormand. I was sitting there going, ‘Who has the who has the vocal range?'”
In Amazon’s six-part series adaption of Gaiman and Terry Pratchett’s novel of the same name, Satan is a 500-foot tall figure who certainly looks terrifying, but Gaiman says he actually wanted to depict the human side of the creature. So when Satan appears in the sixth and final episode,...

Written back in 1990, the bestselling fantasy comedy novel Good Omens from Neil Gaiman – who’d just started The Sandman for Vertigo a year earlier – and the late, great Sir Terry Pratchett was published and has never gone out of favor since. The hilarious, imaginative tale of an angel and demon teaming up to save the world when the Antichrist is born had obvious cinematic potential. So, it’s not a surprise that Terry Gilliam once developed a movie version in the early 00s with Johnny Depp and Robin Williams attached to star.
However, the project – ironically, for a story about the spawn of the devil – dwelt in development hell for years. That is, until Gaiman decided to take matters into his own hands. After Pratchett asked his co-writer to helm the TV adaptation of the book that was in early development at the time (in a letter delivered posthumously), Good Omens finally got going.

The end is nigh and the world’s only hope of survival is the unlikely duo of an angel and a demon. That’s the premise of Good Omens, Neil Gaiman’s upcoming BBC/Amazon co-production that’s based off the classic comedy fantasy novel by himself and the late, great Sir Terry Pratchett.
If you’ve read the cult classic, you’ll know that one-line summary is just the tip of the iceberg of a very weird, imaginative story and, if this latest promo for the show is anything to go by, the upcoming series won’t be diluting the off-the-wall tone of the book one bit. Suffice it to say, if you’ve ever wanted to see David Tennant dress up as a nanny from hell, you’re in luck.

Amazon Studios had a plethora of news coming out of its Comic-Con panel, including numerous teaser trailers, casting news and release dates for some of its biggest and most anticipated shows.
Homecoming
Amazon released its first official trailer for its upcoming show, “Homecoming,” starring Julia Roberts. The trailer has a camera slowly panning through the inside of an expansive building, moving past empty furniture, flickering snack machines, a full kitchen and several hallways before settling on Roberts, who says to someone off screen: “Shall we get started?” She then clicks on a recorder.
Based on the popular podcast of the same name, “Homecoming” is a psychological thriller directed by Sam Esmail (creator of “Mr. Robot”) and from scribes Micah Bloomberg and Eli Horowitz. Heidi Bergman (Roberts) is a caseworker at the Homecoming Transitional Support Center, a Geist Group facility helping soldiers transition back to civilian life. Walter Cruz (Stephan James) is one of these soldiers,...
