Good Omens release date has finally been confirmed

Amazon Prime Video has confirmed that the hotly anticipated adaptation of Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett's novel will be released on Friday 31st May 2019.

James Gill, Radio Times, 13th February 2019

Fantasy credentials don't come much better than those of this Amazon series, which has been adapted by Neil Gaiman from the novel he co-wrote with the late Terry Pratchett. It stars David Tennant as a raffish demon who has formed an unlikely 6,000-year friendship with Michael Sheen's buttoned-down angel. When a looming apocalypse threatens their bromance, the pair team up to save the world. Psychedelic visuals, epic set-pieces and some wild hairpieces sported by Tennant suggest this could be a blast.
