What We Learned About Good Omens at SXSW 2019
The Good Omens experience at SXSW 2019 in Austin was a dream. I attended a party where there were sword swallowers, prophecies, and a replica of Aziraphale’s bookshop. @neil-gaiman had an entire session where he discussed writing, adaptations, and more.
But nothing was quite as exciting as the panel on Saturday night, when writer Neil Gaiman, director Douglas Mackinnon, and cast members David Tennant, Michael Sheen, and Jon Hamm all came together with moderator Aisha Tyler to discuss what it was like to create the upcoming show.
Here are a few of the takeaways—from Aziraphile & Crowley to the expanded character of the angel Gabriel to why the show is so incredibly special.
