Good Omens Season 3: Everything We Know So Far

at .  Updated at .

It's hard to believe that Good Omens has been on the air since 2019, yet only two seasons have aired.

The buzzy Prime Video comedy most recently aired in July 2023, and now, there are questions about a potential Good Omens Season 3.

Below, we've rounded up everything there is to know.

Good Omens Season 3: Everything We Know

Good Omens Officially Renewed for Season 3

Despite last airing several months ago, Prime Video has yet to confirm whether there will be more adventures for Aziraphale and Crowley.

In October 2023, Deadline hinted that a renewal would soon be made official.

The outlet said that options on the cast, led by Michael Sheen and David Tennant, had been picked up.

That typically means that a show is in active negotiations about a pickup.

The kicker is that Deadline hears Good Omens Season 3 will likely be the final season.

While it's sad knowing this incredible show has an end date in mind, it is nice knowing it hasn't been officially canceled.

There's a high chance the series will score a pickup because all signs indicate the show is performing well.

Sheen, Tennant, and many other actors are in demand, so locking them in is the first hurdle to get the show back on the air.

Neil Gaiman had been vocal about the third season being planned.

"It's planned and plotted and if there wasn't a Writers Strike on I'd be writing it right now," he wrote in response to a fan on X.

We'll keep this page updated with new developments as they become available.

In December 2023, Prime Video dropped a big Christmas gift in the form of an official pickup for Season 3. It will end the show.

“I’m so happy finally to be able to finish the story Terry and I plotted in 1989 and in 2006,” Gaiman said in a press release.

“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 [David Tennant] and Aziraphale [Martin Sheen] working together can hope to put it right. And they aren’t talking.”

Good Omens Season 3 Would Have Leadership Changes

While details about Good Omens Season 3 remain scarce, Douglas Mackinnon, who served as executive producer, director, and co-showrunner on the first two seasons, will not be back.

Mackinnon shared the news on Instagram and declared in the comments section that he was no longer involved in the show.

Neil Gaiman told fans, "Douglas has moved on to other projects."

There was still plenty of mythology left to be uncovered, so there was no indication that it would be the end of the story.

Plenty of stories remain left to tell, even if the series is running out of source material.

There is a high chance that Good Omens Season 3 would delve into material from his and Terry Pratchett's unfinished book sequel.

It's interesting for several reasons, but mostly because it will take the show into uncharted territory, giving book readers even more resolution.

Beyond that, details are very much up in the air.

As always, we'll keep this page up to date with more information as it becomes available.

Good Omens Season 3 Cast: Who's In?

There would be no Good Omens without Sheen and Tennant. Fans have connected with their characters in a big way.

Also expected to return is Doon Mackichan as Michael, Gloria Obianyo as Uriel,  Miranda Richardson as Shax, Liz Carr as Saraqael, Quelin Sepulveda as Muriel, and Shelley Conn as Beelzebub.

Jon Hamm, who played Gabriel, could also stage a comeback, but time will tell.

There will also likely be a lot of new faces because the series likes to bring us new characters.

Good Omens Season 3: When Will it Premiere?

With such a long hiatus between the first two seasons, it's hard to tell when Good Omens Season 3 could premiere.

Without an official renewal, it is even more difficult, mainly because negotiations to pick up a series can break down at any time.

Knowing that the cast options have been extended is a good sign, and Gaiman's sentiments about getting the story ironed out after the WGA strike make it seem like a renewal is inevitable.

Demon & Angel - Good Omens

If the show lands a renewal reasonably soon, there's a good chance the series could be back on the air in the last quarter of 2024.

We could be looking at a 2025 return date, but it depends on when we get that much-needed renew/cancel news.

Good Omens Season 3: How Many Episodes Will Be Ordered?

Without a confirmed pickup, there's no information about how many episodes Good Omens Season 3 will comprise.

Jukebox - Good Omens

The first two seasons clocked in at six episodes apiece, so we may be in for another six-episode season.

However, it's also possible that we could get a little bit more if this does turn out to be the last season.

Good Omens Season 3: Is There a Trailer?

With the series still awaiting a renewal, it's unsurprising that there isn't any promotional footage.

Surrender the Angle - Good Omens Season 2 Episode 5

If we get the renewal soon and the show enters production soon, we shouldn't expect a promo until Prime Video schedules a premiere date.

Where Can I Watch Good Omens?

Good Omens is a Prime Video original, so the series is available on the streaming service in most territories worldwide.

You can currently catch up on the first two seasons.

Good Omens Quotes

What’s the point in creating an infinite universe with trillions of star systems if you’re only gonna let it run for a few thousand years? The engine won’t even be probably warmed up by then.

Crowley

Aziraphale: You made it all yourself?
Crowley: Well, I mean more or less. I wasn’t the original concept designer but I worked very closely with Upstairs on it.
Aziraphale: Well, it’s very pretty.
Crowley: Oh, thank you.
