David Tennant's Current Projects

Good Omens
David Tennant and Micheal Sheen starred in the original adaptation of Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett's comedy Good Omens. The first series was released first on Amazon Prime on Friday 31st May 2019 and BBC Two started broadcasting it on Wednesday 15th January 2020.

The six part television series was set in 2018 on the brink of an apocalypse as humanity prepares for a final judgement. But a somewhat fussy angel called Aziraphale (played by Michael Sheen) and Crowley (David Tennant's character who is a demon) aren't enthusiastic about the end of the world and can't seem to find the Antichrist.

Neil Gaiman adapted all six episodes of the series and served as showrunner.

Good Omens was Neil Gaiman's first novel and was written in collaboration with Terry Pratchett.

A second series of Good Omens was announced in June 2021. Once again it stars David Tennant and Michael Sheen as Crowley and Aziraphale. Neil Gaiman and Douglas Mackinnon are the showrunners.

Filming started on Monday 18th October 2021 and was scheduled for 18 weeks until Friday 11th March 2022 (with a three week hiatus for Christmas and New Year). However the final day of filming was Tuesday 1st March 2022. The production was based in Bathgate and filming took place in locations in the Central Belt of Scotland.
