Good Omens 2: Michael Sheen, David Tennant, Jon Hamm Talk Star Status

If you had a chance to check out the panel for BBC Studios & Amazon Prime's Michael Sheen & David Tennant-starring sequel season to Neil Gaiman and the late Sir Terry Pratchett's Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch, then you know that one of the highlights was Sheen, Tennant, and Jon Hamm checking in via Zoom to greet the audience, have a little fun cutting into each other about who the real star of Good Omens is, and field some fan questions that were submitted. Unfortunately, the video wasn't included in the initial livestream, but Popverse has made highlights of it and the entire panel available- and that's what we have waiting for you below:

With the series set to hit Amazon screens in Summer 2023, here's a look at Sheen, Tennant & Hamm in action:

So now, the waiting game begins… as do the waves of Twitter requests for a trailer, even though the series is still close to a year away. Thankfully, Gaiman is offering a rundown of what needs to happen before a trailer sees the light of day. But first, proving that there's nothing wrong with looking ahead, Gaiman laid out some details of the basic "road map" for the series should it move on beyond its second season. Here's a look at those two tweets from Gaiman offering some early insight into the direction that a hypothetical third season would go in if we're all lucky enough for that to happen:

And for those of you wondering where the trailer for Good Omens 2 is, Gaiman lays out the three very reasonable conditions that have to be met for that to happen:

When the story continues, Aziraphale (Sheen) and Crowley (Tennant) are getting back into their easy-living lives among the mortals populating London's Soho. But when an unexpected messenger presents them with a surprising mystery, the game's afoot once more for our duo. "Oh, it's wonderful. It's so much fun," Gaiman responded when asked how the sequel season was shaping up during an interview with Rolling Stone. "Partly because I learned so much. The first time you do something, you just learn how to do it, and then you can start to play. So when I wrote and made 'Good Omens,' I was learning, how do you do a 'Good Omens'? I think there's this thing in my head, but how does it work? I feel like 'Good Omens' season one was 'Chopsticks.' This is much more me getting to the whole orchestra."

Tennant and Sheen are joined by Jon Hamm, Miranda Richardson, Maggie Service, Nina Sosanya, Doon Mackichan, Gloria Obianyo, Liz Carr, Quelin Sepulveda, Shelley Conn, Derek Jacobi, Mark Gatiss, Steve Pemberton, Reece Shearsmith, Niamh Walsh, Dame Siân Phillips, Tim Downie, Pete Firman, Andi Osho, and Alex Norton. Benedict Cumberbatch and Frances McDormand will not be returning as Satan and God, respectively. Gaiman will executive produce and serve as co-showrunner with director Douglas Mackinnon. Rob Wilkins, John Finnemore, and BBC Studios Productions' Head of Comedy Josh Cole also executive produce, with Finnemore co-writing alongside Gaiman. Amazon Studios, BBC Studios Productions, The Blank Corporation, and Narrativia are set to produce.
