Good Omens Season 2 Photos: Filming Has Begun on Amazon’s Fantasy Comedy Series

Amazon Prime Video has confirmed the production on BBC Studios’ upcoming second season of Neil Gaiman’s fantasy drama series Good Omens has already begun in Scotland. The filming start also came with the release of the first Good Omens Season 2 photos which you can check out below, providing us with our first look at the return of Michael Sheen’s angel Aziraphale and David Tennant’s demon Crowley.

“I am so happy to be back here on the streets of Soho, watching, every day, the glorious performances of Michael Sheen and David Tennant,” Gaiman said in a statement. “I miss having Terry Pratchett’s genius, but it does feel like we are still all walking around inside his head. It’s been an absolute pleasure to have the brilliant John Finnemore co-write this season’s story shenanigans with me, and to work with director and my co-showrunner Douglas Mackinnon as he steers the ship, along with our astonishing crew, who have returned to do it again. 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. 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 new 6-episode season will explore storylines that go beyond the original source material to illuminate the uncanny friendship between Aziraphale, a fussy angel and rare book dealer, and the fast-living demon Crowley,” reads the synopsis. “Having been on Earth since The Beginning, and with the Apocalypse thwarted, Aziraphale and Crowley are getting back to easy living amongst mortals in London’s Soho when an unexpected messenger presents a surprising mystery.”

The series is led by Michael Sheen (Masters of Sex) and David Tennant (Jessica Jones). The first season featured a star-studded cast including Frances McDormand as the narrator and voice of God, Jon Hamm as Gabriel, Brian Cox as Death, Mireille Enos as War, Benedict Cumberbatch as Satan, and more.
