Good Omens, starring Michael Sheen and David Tennant, returns on May 13 with a 90-minute episode, serving as the series’ third season.
The change came from six episodes following allegations of sexual assault against Neil Gaiman, who wrote the book on which the series is based, along with Sir Terry Pratchett. This upcoming finale is said to be the end, but could the series return in some form after that? Read on for everything we know about Good Omens‘ future.
No, and chances are it will not be, given that the third season was shortened to one 90-minute finale episode.
Good Omens 3 stars Michael Sheen and David Tennant as angel Aziraphale and demon Crowley, respectively. Also returning in their roles from previous seasons are Doon Mackichan as Michael, Gloria Obianyo as Uriel, Liz Carr as Saraqael, Paul Chahidi as Sandalphon, Quelin Sepulveda as Muriel, and Sir Derek George Jacobi as The Metatron. Bilal Hasna has been cast as Jesus.
Rob Wilkins of Narrativia, representing Terry Pratchett’s estate, as well as BBC Studios Comedy’s Chief Creative Officer Josh Cole serve as executive producers alongside Rachel Talalay, who directs the finale. Sarah-Kate Fenelon and Chris Newman are producers.
The first season is based on the book of the same name, with Aziraphale and Crowley, the unlikely duo who, after becoming fond of life on Earth, team up to stop Armageddon. Among their problems? They’ve lost the Antichrist, who has just turned 11 and is unaware he’s to bring about the end of days.
Starting with Season 2, Good Omens goes beyond the book. After thwarting the Apocalypse, the angel and demon must contend with archangel Gabriel (Jon Hamm) showing up at Aziraphale’s bookshop without his memory. Together, Aziraphale and Crowley work to hide him from both Heaven and Hell, disrupting their lives and setting them on course for what sets up Season 3.
The May 13 finale will pick up where Season 2 left off, with Aziraphale and Crowley separated — the former went to Heaven to be the supreme archangel while the latter is heartbroken after kissing his friend, only to be left behind.
“Angel Aziraphale and demon Crowley return to face their most epic and personal adventure yet. Their millennia-long friendship has been fractured ever since Aziraphale (Michael Sheen) accepted the offer to return to Heaven, leaving Crowley (David Tennant) behind. Now, as the newly appointed Supreme Archangel, Aziraphale is tasked with overseeing the Second Coming, a monumental responsibility that weighs heavily on him, and is made worse when his plans cause some consternation among the other angels. Meanwhile, heartbroken Crowley finds himself at rock bottom, wandering the streets of Soho,” Prime Video teases.
The synopsis continues, “As the fate of the universe hangs in the balance, Aziraphale and Crowley must confront their relationship, heal old wounds, and rediscover their bond. From navigating London’s gangsters to thwarting Hellish threats, they face personal betrayals and the complexities of their own emotions in this timeless expedition. Together, they must decide whether their friendship – and the world itself – is worth saving.”
