Good Omens 2 Key Art/Video: Well-Placed Box Saves Jon Hamm's Gabriel
With Amazon's Prime Video series Good Omens 2 arriving this Friday, we have a new key art poster & video focusing on Jon Hamm's Gabriel.
With Prime Video's continuation of Neil Gaiman & Sir Terry Pratchett's Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch (otherwise known as Good Omens 2) hitting our screens this Friday, we're taking a look at the third major player this season – with Crowley (David Tennant) and Aziraphale (Michael Sheen) clearly ied for the top two spots. But when you have Jon Hamm's Gabriel showing up on your doorstep naked and with no memory of who he is & what he should be doing, it doesn't take long for the "duet" to become a "trio." First up, to honor the occasion, we have new key art that finds Hamm's Gabriel, his nudity, and a well-placed box entering the scene – as you're about to see:
But just in case you're feeling a little too sympathetic to Gabriel's second-season plight, Amazon's Prime Video also shared a look back at some of the highlights from the archangel's initial run. Just see how quickly your sympathy disappears just from watching the scenes that bookend the compilation clip below:

Good Omens 2: What We Know About Amazon's Prime Video Series
With all six episodes set to hit Prime Video screens on July 28th (in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide), here's the official trailer for Good Omens 2, followed by a look at the season's official overview, a sneak preview & more:
Originally based on Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman's international best-selling novel, Good Omens 2 explores storylines that go beyond the original source material to illuminate the ineffable friendship between Aziraphale (Michael Sheen), a fussy angel and rare-book dealer, and the fast-living demon Crowley (David Tennant). Having been on Earth since The Beginning, and with the Apocalypse thwarted, the duo is 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.
Prime Video series Good Omens 2 stars Sheen and Tennant as angel Aziraphale and demon Crowley, respectively. Also reprising their roles are Hamm as archangel Gabriel, Doon Mackichan as archangel Michael, and Gloria Obianyo as archangel Uriel. Returning this season in new roles: Miranda Richardson as demon Shax, Maggie Service as Maggie, and Nina Sosanya as Nina, with new faces joining the misfits in Heaven and Hell: Liz Carr as angel Saraqael, Quelin Sepulveda as angel Muriel, and Shelley Conn as demon Beelzebub.
Gaiman continues as executive producer and co-showrunner along with executive producer Douglas Mackinnon, who returned to direct all of the season's episodes. Rob Wilkins of Narrativia, representing 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 is based on the internationally bestselling novel by Pratchett and Gaiman, with the new season of the streaming series produced by Amazon Studios, BBC Studios Productions, The Blank Corporation, and Narrativia.
For this go-around, Crowley (David Tennant) and Aziraphale (Michael Sheen) decide to pay a visit to Give Me Coffee or Give Me Death – and the local coffee shop's owner, Nina (Nina Sosanya, in a different role this season). What we learn is that Crowley has a serious coffee addiction – and news of Aziraphale's "naked man" gets around fast:
