The series adaptation of Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman’s Good Omens is returning for another season, its third and last, Variety reports.
The series, produced by Amazon and the BBC, is based on the 1990 comic fantasy novel about Aziraphale, an angel, and Crowley, a demon, who work to prevent the end of the world. Starring Michael Sheen, David Tennant, and Jon Hamm, it premiered in 2019, and has received mostly positive reviews from critics and viewers. Its second season was released in July.
In a statement, Gaiman said, “Terry was determined that if we made Good Omens for television, we could take the story all the way to the end. Season One was all about averting Armageddon, dangerous prophecies, and the End of the World. Season Two was sweet and gentle, although it may have ended less joyfully than a certain Angel and Demon might have hoped. Now in Season Three, we will deal once more with the end of the world. The plans for Armageddon are going wrong. Only Crowley and Aziraphale working together can hope to put it right. And they aren’t talking.”
Vernon Sanders, the head of television for Amazon MGM Studios, told Variety, “The final season is sure to be packed with the same dynamic energy that our global customers have come to enjoy.”
There’s no projected release date for the third season, which will be filmed in Scotland.
