Was a bit surprised when we found out this one was happening, but here we are. A Good Omens 2 trailer, synopsis and more have been released ahead of the sequel series coming to Amazon Prime. For those that are unawares, Good Omens is based on a very famous book of the same name written by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman. However there was no Good Omens sequel book. Therefore, Good Omens 2 is kinda treading new ground.

That could mean one of two things. One, that there is so much fertile ground for stories, creating a sequel was hard not to do. Or, two, that they don’t have any material and this is a misjudged cash grab. Though, how can you really go wrong with David Tennant and Michael Sheen playing Aziraphale and Crowley again? I guess we will find out soon enough. Good Omens 2 premieres on July 28.

Synopsis And Poster

Okay, that does look fun, but trailers can be better than the real deal. Therefore,  I will reserve judgment, until July 28 at least.

Check out the official synopsis below, which just about covers the trailer in written form.

“Having been on Earth since The Beginning, and with the Apocalypse thwarted, the duo are getting back to easy living amongst mortals in London’s Soho. That is, until the archangel Gabriel (Jon Hamm) turns up unexpectedly at the door of Aziraphale’s bookshop with no memory of who he is or how he got there. While Crowley is leery as to why the archangel has come to the bookshop, Aziraphale is keen to solve the mystery behind Gabriel’s condition. However, hiding the archangel from both Heaven and Hell quickly disrupts their lives in unforeseen ways. To solve this mystery and thwart Heaven and Hell in the process, the duo will need more than a miracle; they’ll need to once again rely on each other.”

We also have a poster to share, check it out.

My guess is someone in Heaven, or Hell, is trying to start the apocalypse again. You know, since they all seemed to want that to happen in the original story, until it was prevented by Crowley and Azriphale. Then again, who knows?

Reprising their roles from Good Omens are Jon Hamm as archangel Gabriel, Doon Mackichan as archangel Michael, and Gloria Obianyo as archangel Uriel. Other cast members, some returning, some new faces are Miranda Richardson as demon Shax, Maggie Service as Maggie, Nina Sosanya as Nina, Liz Carr as angel Saraqael, Quelin Sepulveda as angel Muriel, and Shelley Conn as demon Beelzebub.
