Good Omens was a 2019 fantasy comedy based on the book of the same name by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett, both icons in their own right. It’s about Aziraphale (Michael Sheen) and Crowley (David Tennant), an angel and demon respectively who formed a friendship over the millennia despite technically being on opposite sides of an eternal war between heaven and hell.
Pratchett passed in 2015, but Gaiman was heavily involved in production of Good Omens. The first season adapted the entire book, but Amazon is moving forward with a second. Given that Gaiman is one of the most successful storytellers of the past few decades, I daresay he can come up with something.
Gaiman appeared together with other cast and crew members today at New York Comic Con. The big news was that Good Omens season 2 got a poster and a release window: Summer 2023.

Good Omens season 2 will feature “a lot more Heaven, a lot more Hell”
The audience at NYCC got treated to a couple of clips, but they have yet to make their way online. For the moment, all we have to go on are Gaiman’s teases. He says that season 2 will feature “love stories,” along with “a lot more Heaven, a lot more Hell.”
"It’s a great way to build on the ridiculous success of Season 1. It’s because of you that we got to make a Season 2."
The first season of Good Omens was really fun and breezy. Between this, The Sandman, and an upcoming adaptation of his novel Anansi Boys (also for Amazon Prime Video), it seems like Gaiman can do no wrong recently.
