Good Omens Season 2 went down a treat with fans – here’s everything we know so far about Season 3, including any renewal and release updates.

Good Omens was a huge hit when it launched on Amazon in May 2019, and the delightful fantasy series has finally returned to our screens in 2023. The first season, which directly adapted the Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett novel of the same name, told the story of the angel Aziraphale (Michael Sheen) and the demon Crowley (David Tennant).

As we stated in our review of Season 2, “Gaiman and Pratchett have always been able to keep a sort of nonchalant tone, even when dealing with large and alarming biblical concepts such as the Book of Job. It’s this atmosphere that really makes Good Omens shine, and stand out amongst its contemporaries.”

But this success should no doubt lead to a third season, right? Here’s everything we know so far about Good Omens Season 3.

Will there be a Good Omens Season 3?

Thanks the heavens (or hell) everyone, as Season 3 has been confirmed!

Speaking to SFX, creator Neil Gaiman explained that Season 2 was meant to be a connective tissue between the first and third season: “Because the hypothetical Season 3 exists, there is a story that is there, and I didn’t feel that we could drive straight from Season 1 into that.”

Furthermore, actor Maggie Service, inferred to the Radio Times that there was more to come: “Where we end, I think, is so beautifully written because none of it’s tied up in a bow, none of it’s Hollywood magic. It’s real within fantasy – and what is going to happen next?”

Sources are also reporting that a renewed Season 3 would likely be the show’s final season.

Is there a Good Omens Season 3 release date?

Good Omens Season 3 has no release date as of writing. However, we can estimate when it would premiere.

Season 1 first dropped in 2019, and Season 2 in 2023. So that means Season 3 likely wouldn’t come any later than 2027. Obviously four years is a long wait time, so this may disappoint some fans.

Then again, global restrictions in 2020 no doubt delayed the production process of Season 2 longer than normal. So it’s anyone’s guess when a third season could come out, but it’s likely to be within four years.

The show will also likely continue to be released with Amazon Prime Video.

Good Omens Season 3 cast: Who is likely to return?

The cast for Good Omens Season 3 would likely be a mix of returning faces and brand new ones. Some actors may even be placed into different roles, as was the case in Season 2.

This potential cast list includes:

David Tennant as Crowley
Michael Sheen as Aziraphale
Jon Hamm as Gabriel
Doon Mackichan as Archangel Michael
Miranda Richardson as Shax
Shelley Conn as Beelzebub
Maggie Service as Maggie
Nina Sosanya as Nina
Derek Jacobi as Metatron
Paul Adeyefa as Demon Eric
Elizabeth Berrington as Dagon
Abigail Lawrie as Elspeth
Liz Carr as Saraqael
Gloria Obianyo as Uriel
Quelin Sepulveda as Muriel

Is there a trailer for Good Omens season 3?

As of writing, there is no promotional footage for Season 3.

Good Omens Season 3 plot: What would happen in Season 3?

Good Omens Season 3 would likely continue the relationship of Crowley and Aziraphale, and follow on the plot set up by Season 2, which we won’t spoil here, but check out our ending explainer.

Season 1 had a 1990 published book of the same name to use as source material, but Season 2 consisted of an unreleased sequel outline by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett. The former has stated that most of the outline will actually be touched upon in Season 3, so we’ve got plenty of material to look forward to.

We will update this article when we know more.
