It tells of an angel, Aziraphale, and a demon, Crowley, who have both found Earth a pretty suitable place to live.
"That was the nearest I was ever going to get to Michelangelo phoning to ask if I wanted to paint a ceiling with him," Gaiman told the BBC in 2014.Īnd so, two of Earth's most celebrated fantasy writers teamed to write a comedy about an unfortunate baby-swap and the coming apocalypse. He sent his Antichrist draft to Pratchett for feedback and a year later, Pratchett called him. Gaiman conceived an idea about the Antichrist being accidentally swapped in a hospital at birth, wrote 5,000 words and then put it on the back burner as his Sandman graphic novel series kicked off. Good Omens is about the coming apocalypse, written by fantasy visionaries and real-world friends Gaiman and Pratchett. I forget not everybody has bought three editions of Good Omens in their lifetime. But he changed his mind after receiving a posthumous letter from Pratchett that asked Gaiman to get it done without him and, well, here we are. When Pratchett died from Alzheimer's disease in 2015, Gaiman said he wouldn't do an adaptation without his good friend. Since at least 2000, various names have been attached to it, including Terry Gilliam, Johnny Depp and Robin Williams. Yes! Long in discussion between Gaiman and Pratchett, an adaptation has been in (perhaps aptly) production purgatory for a long time.
If you have no idea what you just watched then let's talk about everything there is to know about Good Omens, shall we? Wait, Good Omens is actually getting made?
