American Gods Season 3: Jackson, Glover Discuss An Ever-Changing World

STARZ's adaptation of author and executive producer Neil Gaiman's American Gods made it three-for-three on Thursday, following up looks at Ricky Whittle's Shadow Moon and Ian McShane's Mr. Wednesday travels during the upcoming third season with a trip over to the new gods side of things. And what better place to start than at the top, right? So with a look towards what lies ahead, here's how things are looking for World (Crispin Glover)- actually, for all three World (one being Danny Trejo).

Confused? We understand. In a nutshell? It's World trying to spread its influence by using its name to its advantage. In the following clip, Glover and Dominique Jackson (Pose) explain the importance of World taking on a more diverse appearance and what World's move is this season:

"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.
