American Gods Season 3: Gods Walk Among Us- And They're Not Happy
With time ticking away until the Season 3 premiere of STARZ's adaptation of author and EP Neil Gaiman's famed novel American Gods, viewers are getting a fresh teaser for the series's return that focuses on the war between Wednesday's (Ian McShane) old gods and World's (Crispin Glover, Dominique Jackson, Danny Trejo) new gods "going public," you could say. As Ashley Reyes' Cordelia best expresses (and as Emily Browning's Laura Moon has learned), how do you go back to life's "status quo" when you know that there are gods that walk among humanity- and they're not happy?
Here's a fresh look at STARZ's American Gods– showing us once again that though times may change and technology improves, it's always come down to one thing: those with the most followers wins. And in this race, there is no second place:
Here's a look back at the official trailer for the third season of American Gods, with the series set to return to STARZ on Sunday, January 10, 2021 (maybe earlier?):
"American Gods" is the epic story of an inevitable war building between the Old Gods of mythology and our New Gods of technology. Whittle stars as ex-con Shadow Moon, a man pulled into the service of the mysterious Mr. Wednesday, played by Ian McShane ("Deadwood", John Wick) — only to discover that not only is his charismatic but un-trustable boss actually the Norse All-Father god Odin, he's also…Shadow's father.
In Season Three, Shadow angrily pushes this apparent destiny away and settles in the idyllic snowy town of Lakeside, Wisconsin — to make his own path, guided by the gods of his Black ancestors, the Orishas. But he'll soon discover that this town's still waters run deep, and dark, and bloody, and that you don't get to simply reject being a god. The only choice — and a choice you have to make — is what kind of god you're going to be.
