Michael Sheen Gives First GOOD OMENS Final Season Update in Months

It’s been quite some time since we last heard about Good Omens. The third and final season of the Prime Video series shrunk into one 90-minute episode after allegations of sexual abuse were brought against Neil Gaiman. Gaiman has since stepped away from the production. However, the tone and feeling around the show has obviously shifted as a result. Although Prime Video did not cancel the show outright, we haven’t heard anything about it since the annoucement that Good Omens season three would be one concluding episode. But speaking to Deadline, star Michael Sheen gave us our first update in months about the series. Although Sheen noted he didn’t know when or even if we’d see Good Omens‘ final episode air, he did reveal that its filming was complete.

Sheen spoke briefly about Good Omens season three in the interview. He noted “it’s not up to me,” when asked if Good Omens‘ final episode would air. “I’m not in control but the episode is made and hopefully the people will enjoy it as and when.”

Although we have seen companies cancel complete shows and movies before, it feels unlikely that Prime Video went through all the trouble to film one more episode of Good Omens only to bury it. But when this last piece of Good Omens will see the light of day, we could not say.

Sheen did note one additional thing about Good Omens, revealing that regardless of the final episode’s fate, he feels lucky to have worked with David Tennant and experienced the love of the fandom. Sheen says, “When people talk about having chemistry, you just feel very lucky. We [Sheen and Tennant] both feel the same way about making a scene work as well as possible. And to see what Good Omens means to the fandom, well I still get very moved.”

Good Omens seasons one and two are currently streaming on Prime Video. The series description shares, “A fussy Angel and a loose-living Demon who’ve become overly fond of life on Earth are forced to form an unlikely alliance to stop Armageddon.”
