‘Good Omens’ Season 2 Sneak Peeks Introduce New Characters

July is finally here, and with it the prophesied return of Prime Video’s smash hit Good Omens, starring David Tennant and Michael Sheen as the wily demon Crowley and fussy angel Aziraphale. Fans of the series have been waiting patiently since 2019 for its return, and over the past few weeks, Prime Video has rewarded fans for their patience with not only a trailer but several sneak peeks to boot.

The first sneak peek, titled “That’s How I Felt,” sees returning character and highlight of Season 1, Archangel Gabriel (Jon Hamm), puzzling through why he has come to visit Aziraphale at his bookshop. There is not much plot in this sneak peek that wasn’t already evident from the trailer released earlier in June, but it does give a closer look at Gabriel’s amnesia and the foreboding “something terrible” that has led him to Earth.

Gabriel and Aziraphale aren’t the only earthbound angels getting their time in the spotlight. Prime’s official Good Omens social media accounts shared a teaser of the new character Muriel (Quelin Sepulved), a ridiculously endearing angel who was added to the cast because showrunner Neil Gaiman lamented that all other angels were bastards. Gaiman made a good call because Sepulved has enough charm in just a few seconds of screen time to make up for all the show’s insufferable angels. She appears to be on Earth as a replacement for Aziraphale or to investigate his whereabouts, but like Aziraphale, she is a little too delighted by humanity for her own good.
