Summary
Good Omens season 3 has received a positive update.
Gaiman's revelation of his involvement as the writer for the new season is a promising sign, even though season 3 has not yet been officially renewed.
Good Omens season 3 has received a promising update. The Prime Video series, created by Neil Gaiman and based on the 1990 fantasy novel co-written by Gaiman and Terry Pratchett, has garnered positive reviews. The first season followed the events of the book, focusing on the angel Aziraphale and the demon Crowley working together to stop the rise of the Antichrist. Season 2, which premiered on July 28, introduced a new original story within the same universe.
According to TheWrap, Gaiman recently addressed fan inquiries about Good Omens season 3 on the social media app Bluesky. When asked if he would begin writing season 3 now that the strike was over, he simply replied "Yes." Another user followed up with the question of whether the show had been renewed for a third season, to which Gaiman clarified that he had been hired to write it, but no official renewal had been announced.
Is Good Omens Season 3 Going To Happen?
The update from Neil Gaiman does not guarantee the production of Good Omens season 3. Prime Video may choose to reject the scripts for various reasons, such as creative, budgetary, or scheduling issues. Nonetheless, their investment in the next stage indicates a positive development.
Progress on season 3 of Good Omens is moving faster than it did for season 2, which was officially renewed in June 2021, over two years after season 1 premiered. This delay was likely due to the show originally being planned as a miniseries and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on production. However, as the scripts are currently being developed, it is expected that Prime Video will announce the renewal of season 3 in a more timely manner. This confidence is supported by the positive reception of season 2, which has earned an 84% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. If the season is renewed, the main obstacles will be reuniting the cast and starting production, resulting in a shorter gap between seasons.
