We have just learned the fate of the final season of the series “Good Omens”. The Prime Video platform announced that we will not see the full series, but only a shortened version in the form of a single episode closing the series.
In July this year, the world was informed that Neil Gaiman, the creator of such comics and series as “Sandman” and “Good Omens”, was accused of assault. Several women testified, but the author denied these accusations.
Disney recently announced that due to the accusations against Gaiman, it is suspending work on the film adaptation of the novel “The Graveyard Book”. The author withdrew from cooperation with the Prime Video platform and will not be signed as an executive producer.
The third season of the series “Good Omens” will take the form of a 90-minute episode, resembling a television movie. The team is scheduled to return to work in early 2025.
“Good Omens” is an adaptation of the novel of the same title by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett.
What is the series about? A war is coming between heaven and hell that will lead to the end of the world. The announcement of the approaching Armageddon is the appearance of Satan’s son on Earth. To prevent this Angel Aziraphale (Michael Sheen) and the demon Crowley (David Tennant) try to influence the child’s upbringing, hoping that if he is surrounded by good and evil equally, he will grow up to be an ordinary boy who will not start the apocalypse. Unfortunately, a few days before the planned final war, it turns out that they were taking care of the wrong child. To save the world from destruction, Aziraphale and Crowley begin searching for Satan’s son. At the same time, the boy begins to discover his extraordinary powers. Two seasons of the series have been produced so far.
