Get Your First Look at David Tennant and Michael Sheen in ‘Good Omens’

Filming has started on the small screen adaptation of fantasy drama Good Omens, starring Michael Sheen (Masters of Sex, the Twilight films) and David Tennant (Doctor Who, Jessica Jones).

Otherwise known as "that show that has pretty much the most perfect lead casting for a TV series ever".

The six-part series, based on the popular novel by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett, follows the story of a fussy angel (Aziraphale) and a hard-living demon (Crowley) who must join forces in order to prevent a possible apocalypse. (This is maybe the most basic description of this plot, but it’ll actually be more fun the less you know going in. Honest.)

Tennant will play the demon to Sheen’s angel, alongside an all-star cast that includes Miranda Richardson, Jack Whitehall, Michael McKean, Adria Arjona, and more.

Gaiman –who is also serving as the series’ showrunner – tweeted a photo of his two stars dressed to the nines in their Aziraphale and Crowley best to commemorate the launch of filming. And, let’s be real, they look amazing.
