Good Omens, Season 2
Amazon has revealed the release date for the second season of Good Omens, which will be available on July 28th. Originally based on Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman’s international best-selling novel, Good Omens 2 explores storylines that go beyond the original source material to illuminate the ineffable friendship between Aziraphale (Michael Sheen), a fussy angel and rare-book dealer, and the fast-living demon Crowley (David Tennant). Having been on Earth since The Beginning, and with the Apocalypse thwarted, the duo are getting back to easy living amongst mortals in London’s Soho. That is, until the archangel Gabriel (Jon Hamm) turns up unexpectedly at the door of Aziraphale’s bookshop with no memory of who he is or how he got there. While Crowley is leery as to why the archangel has come to the bookshop, Aziraphale is keen to solve the mystery behind Gabriel’s condition. However, hiding the archangel from both Heaven and Hell quickly disrupts their lives in unforeseen ways. To solve this mystery and thwart Heaven and Hell in the process, the duo will need more than a miracle; they’ll need to once again rely on each other.
A mystery that takes us from before The Beginning, to biblical times, grave robbing in Victorian Edinburgh, the Blitz of 1940s England, all the way through to modern day, Good Omens 2 stars Michael Sheen and David Tennant as angel Aziraphale and demon Crowley, respectively. Also reprising their roles are Jon Hamm as archangel Gabriel, Doon Mackichan as archangel Michael, and Gloria Obianyo as archangel Uriel. Returning this season in new roles are Miranda Richardson as demon Shax, Maggie Service as Maggie, and Nina Sosanya as Nina, with new faces joining the misfits in Heaven and Hell: Liz Carr as angel Saraqael, Quelin Sepulveda as angel Muriel, and Shelley Conn as demon Beelzebub.
Neil Gaiman continues as executive producer and co-showrunner along with executive producer Douglas Mackinnon, who also returned to direct all six episodes. Rob Wilkins of Narrativia, representing Terry Pratchett’s estate, John Finnemore, and BBC Studios Productions’ head of comedy Josh Cole also executive produce, with Finnemore serving as co-writer alongside Gaiman. Good Omens is based on the well-loved and internationally best-selling novel by Pratchett and Gaiman. The new season is produced by Amazon Studios, BBC Studios Productions, The Blank Corporation, and Narrativia.
Guy Ritchie’s The Covenant
For those who prefer military-themed action films with a combination of drama and suspense, Guy Ritchie’s The Covenant is currently available on Amazon Prime Video, starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Dar Salim, and Antony Starr. During the Afghanistan war, a local interpreter risks his life to carry an injured sergeant through miles of treacherous terrain.
The Horror of Dolores Roach, Season 1
Viewers who are interested in romantic works with dramatic events can check out The Horror of Dolores Roach Season 1, which premiered on July 7th. Following an unfair 16-year incarceration, Dolores Roach, portrayed by Machado, emerges into a transformed Washington Heights, now dominated by gentrification. Reconnecting with an old companion, Luis, an avid marijuana user, Dolores finds refuge in his empanada shop’s basement, where she takes up the role of a masseuse. However, her newfound sense of security is swiftly jeopardized, pushing the resourceful Dolores, known for her exceptional massage skills as “Magic Hands,” to resort to unthinkable measures in order to endure and thrive in her challenging circumstances.
Taking place in the lively community of Washington Heights, this show pays tribute to its residents while delving into a dark and twisted urban tale of romance, betrayal, the effects of gentrification, and the struggle for survival in a competitive environment.
The Summer I Turned Pretty
Summer I Turned Pretty is a coming-of-age romantic drama series, with eight episodes released on July 14. Belly used to count down the days until she could return to Cousins Beach, but with Conrad and Jeremiah fighting over her heart and the return of Susannah’s cancer, she’s not sure summer will ever be the same. When an unexpected visitor threatens the future of Susannah’s beloved house, Belly has to rally the gang to come together—and to decide once and for all where her heart lies.
