The third season of Good Omens will now be one 90-minute episode, according to Variety.
The show was greenlit for a full third and final season in December 2023, and production was underway. Work was put on hold this September, however, when several women publicly accused showrunner Neil Gaiman of sexual assault.
Good Omens, which is based on the novel by Gaiman and Terry Pratchett, centers on the angel Aziraphale (Michael Sheen) and the demon Crowley (David Tennant) who form an ineffable, loving relationship despite being from opposite celestial sides. While the two kissed in the Season Two finale, they parted on less-than-stellar terms after Aziraphale accepted a top-tier job in Heaven.
Season Three of the series was meant to follow a sequel story created by the Good Omens co-authors before Pratchett passed away in 2015. According to Variety, Gaiman “had contributed to the writing of the series finale, but he will not be working on the show once production resumes.” He will also not be listed as an executive producer on the upcoming final episode.
Production is scheduled to start up again in 2025 in Scotland, though there’s no news yet on when the one-episode third season will make its way to Prime Video.
