Though the end is the world as we know it is no longer an imminent threat, the story isn’t over for mis-matched divine duo Aziraphale and Crowley.  

Following the global success of the first season, co-creator Neil Gaiman is bringing back the beloved unholy duo for more on-screen adventures with an entirely original story. 

The premiere date for the second season was revealed on the 33rd anniversary of the publishing of the original novel, Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman, which served as the basis for the first season of the series. Gaiman collaborated with superfans Hilly and Hannah Hindi of the Hillywood show to reveal the date in a fan-funded video titled Good Omens Parody.

Season Two of Good Omens explores storylines beyond the original source material to illuminate the unusual friendship between Aziraphale, a fussy angel and rare book dealer, and the fast-living demon Crowley. Having been on Earth since The Beginning, and with the Apocalypse thwarted, Aziraphale and Crowley are getting back into routine living amongst mortals in London when an unexpected messenger reveals a surprising mystery.

Good Omens Season Two stars Michael Sheen and David Tennant as angel Aziraphale and demon Crowley, respectively. Also reprising their roles are Jon Hamm as archangel Gabriel, Doon Mackichan as archangel Michael, and Gloria Obianyo as archangel Uriel. Returning this season in new roles are Miranda Richardson as demon Shax, Maggie Service as Maggie, and Nina Sosanya as Nina. The new faces joining the motley crew in Heaven and Hell include Liz Carr as angel Saraqael, Quelin Sepulveda as angel Muriel, and Shelley Conn as demon Beelzebub.

Neil Gaiman continues as executive producer and co-showrunner along with executive producer Douglas Mackinnon, who returned to direct all six episodes. Rob Wilkins of Narrativia, representing Terry Pratchett’s estate, John Finnemore, and BBC Studios Productions’ head of comedy Josh Cole also executive produce, with Finnemore serving as co-writer alongside Gaiman.

Good Omens Season Two is set to premiere on July 28 exclusively on Prime Video.
