Good Omens Season 3 Reportedly Paused Amid Neil Gaiman Controversy

After that cliffhanger that ended season two of Good Omens, and the joy of learning that indeed a third season was coming to address that kiss, among other things, fans of the Prime Video series starring Michael Sheen and David Tennant may have to wait a bit longer, for reasons that presumably have little to do with angels, demons, and apocalypses. Deadline is reporting that work on season three has “paused,” with “possible production changes” being considered.

If you’ve been keeping up with entertainment news, you can easily read between the lines. The Emmy-nominated Good Omens is based on the novel co-written by Neil Gaiman and the late Terry Pratchett; Gaiman—an oft-adapted author whose current shows also include Netflix’s The Sandman—has been actively involved in the TV series, including acting as showrunner and writer.

Controversy around Gaiman has heightened since the July release of a four-part podcast series titled Master: the Allegations Against Neil Gaiman from UK-based Tortoise Media; it investigates accusations of sexual assault brought by multiple women over a span of years against the author. Rolling Stone has also covered the story. The Deadline article notes that “Gaiman has denied the allegations and said he was ‘disturbed’ by them.”

The trade also points out that another Gaiman adaptation, Disney feature The Graveyard Book, has also been put “on pause,” which IndieWire reported on last week—though Deadline cites “insiders” as saying “multiple factors went into the decision” regarding Graveyard. Variety’s late August scoop on the cancellation of Netflix’s Dead Boy Detectives, another Gaiman series, does not mention the allegations at all.

When reached by io9, Prime Video representatives had no comment regarding the Deadline story on Good Omens season three.
