Production on the third season of Good Omens has hit a pause, according to Deadline. This season, currently filming in Scotland, will be the last installment of the Prime Video series based on Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett’s novel. The show stars David Tennant and Michael Sheen, who will return as Crowley and Aziraphale.
The Deadline report notes that discussions are ongoing about possible production changes, though specific details have not been disclosed. This development comes amid recent sexual assault allegations against Neil Gaiman, who serves as the writer, showrunner, and executive producer of the series. Gaiman has denied these allegations, and GamesRadar+ has sought comments from Amazon.
Michael Sheen has recently spoken about his excitement for the new season, emphasizing his eagerness to work with David Tennant again. He expressed appreciation for the show’s fan base and the profound impact it has on its audience, noting how the reactions to season 2 were particularly remarkable. Sheen is hopeful that season 3 will meet fans’ expectations.
The original plan for Good Omens was to adapt the novel into a single season, as the book itself is a standalone work. However, season 2 included new material based on ideas from Gaiman, and season 3 will draw from the unrealized sequel plans conceived by Gaiman and Pratchett.
At this time, there is no confirmed release date for the third and final season of Good Omens. Fans will have to wait for further updates regarding both the production status and the premiere schedule.
