Neil Gaiman was accused of sexual assault earlier this year, and it’s now being reported that as a result production on Good Omens season 3 is being paused.
Back in July, a report was released alleging that Nail Gaiman had committed sexual assault against multiple women, one of which allegedly had signed a non-disclosure agreement following her experience with the author, others having previously served as nannies for his child. Currently, Gaiman has denied the allegations against him, but earlier this week Deadline reported that production has been paused on the Amazon Prime and BBC adaptation of Good Omens, a popular show based on books he co-wrote with Terry Pratchett.
While a spokesperson provided no comment to Deadline, the outlet claims that it had heard there are discussions about possible production changes. However, Deadline has now reported that Gaiman himself has offered to step back from the third and final season of Good Omens. This is apparently so that production can continue on it, but according to Deadline this is not an admission from Gaiman that any of the allegations are true. Amazon is reportedly believed to be considering Gaiman’s offer, but no final calls have been made just yet. The show is currently in pre-production, and was originally slated to be released in January, 2025.
