“I know how busy you are, but I want to see this before the darkness takes me. “You’re the only other person out there with the same love and understanding and passion for this that I have,” Pratchett’s letter read. Pratchett wrote Gaiman a letter asking him to bring the book to life after his death. Pratchett died of Alzheimer's in 2015, aged just 66, but Gaiman revealed that Pratchett’s dying wish was to make Good Omens into a TV series. The original novel Good Omens - the full title of which is Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch - was co-authored by Gaiman and Pratchett in 1990. "We were lucky in the first season to have so many outstanding actors taking part, so I took pleasure in inviting people back, wherever we could, some in the roles they played originally, some in new parts written just for them." The story of Good Omens Neil Gaiman said: "In this season we get to have new adventures with old friends, to solve some extremely mysterious mysteries, and we encounter some entirely new humans (living, dead, and otherwise), angels, and demons. Miranda Richardson and Michael McKean will also return - while Reece Shearsmith, Paul Adeyefa, Gloria Obianyo, Maggie Service and Nina Sosanya are also confirmed in the cast list. “It’s probably less good for the universe as it almost certainly means there will be some fresh existential threat to its existence to deal with, but, you know - swings and roundabouts…” As I get to work with Michael again, and I get to say Neil’s wonderful words once more. Michael Sheen joked: “Personally I’m against it, but the world isn’t going to just save itself, is it? If David and I can manage to not fall out too badly this time it may even have a chance of getting finished.”ĭavid Tennant added: “The return of Good Omens is great news for me, personally. David Tennant and Michael Sheen have both been confirmed as the returning leads.
