The original run, which released back in 2019, saw the unlikely duo join forces in order to prevent armageddon, with this follow-up tackling a smaller-scale story, according to creator Neil Gaiman.<\/p>\n
Sheen and Tennant, who created the lockdown sitcom Staged<\/a> between their work on Good Omens, spoke to SFX Magazine<\/a> about how the relationship between their characters has evolved.<\/p>\n \u201cWhat\u2019s different in season 2 is, because of what happened at the end of season 1, they no longer have head offices that they have to report to,\u201d began Tennant.<\/p>\n \u201cThey are in a very different position. Whereas before they were trying to get away with things, now they are kind of free agents.\u201d<\/p> Sheen continued: \u201cAlthough sort of fugitives as well. They are sort of in-between. But this amazing life they have created over a millennia, they are now able to enjoy in a slightly different way.<\/p>\n \u201cThey are not having to put on a front for their respective teams. There is a different kind of freedom.<\/p>\n \u201cThey have always been the only two beings who could understand each other\u2019s position. Now they are pushed even closer together.\u201d<\/p>\n Read more:<\/strong><\/p>\n These comments will be intriguing to Good Omens<\/a> super-fans, many of whom have long \u2018shipped\u2019 Aziraphale and Crowley in an imagined romance known as the Ineffable Husbands.<\/p>\n Gaiman has previously resisted pressure to give into the fan-fiction phenomenon, telling Digital Spy<\/a> in 2020: \u201cThese are two ethereal and occult beings who aren\u2019t really quite clear on what mammals are about, even. I don\u2019t really think that they\u2019ve sussed complicated human things like gender.\u201d<\/p>\n But even if conventional romantic love isn\u2019t on the cards for this odd couple, it seems Good Omens viewers can still look forward to plenty of charming interactions between the two in the six new episodes.<\/p>\n Tennant added: \u201c[Crowley] only has one friend. He can only have one friend. That is the great liberation, and also the great prison, that they find themselves in. They have no one else.<\/p>\n \u201cThey have come to rely on each other more than they ever did. And more than they care to admit.\u201d<\/p>\n The next issue of SFX Magazine is on sale Wednesday 12th July, with subscriber copies arriving from Saturday 8th July.<\/p>\n Good Omens season 2 is coming to Prime Video on Friday 28th July 2023.
