Filming has started on ‘Good Omens’, an upcoming Amazon Prime Video six-part series based on the novel by Neil Gaimen, written with the late Terry Pratchett.

Tennant will play the demon Crowley, in a story based on earth’s apocalypse. Michael Sheen’s will play the angel Aziraphale. Gaiman’s photo is reportedly taken from shooting on the opening scene in St James’s Park, set 11 years before the events of the story. According to RadioTimes, this marks the beginning of a six-month shoot that will move through London, Oxfordshire and even South Africa.

We won’t be seeing Good Omens for a while, as the series isn’t set to air on Amazon Prime Video until 2019, before airing on BBC2 at a later date. Keep posted for more updates!
