At the end of Good Omens’ second season, Heaven turned to Aziraphale. It needed an angel who knows how things work on Earth. Crowley—along with most fans—didn’t want him to take the job. It was simply an offer the pleasant celestial being couldn’t turn down after millennia of following orders. But he also took it before he knew exactly what the position entailed. Aziraphale will oversee “the next step in the Great Plan,” which Heaven calls “the Second Coming.” If there was any doubt what that meant, the show’s trailers confirmed it: Jesus Christ will return to Earth. How will Aziraphale make that momentous event happen? Nerdist has an exclusive first-look clip from Good Omens 3 that gives us insight into that heavenly question. You can watch it below.
Good Omens 3 producer Sarah-Kate Fenelon teases the following about our new, exclusive clip, ”Upstairs has begun Operation Second Coming.” And you know what, an operation like that isn’t simple. It will involve over-complicated plans, aggrieved angels who don’t like their boss, and putting someone/something important in a new body. To paraphrase the Bard that Aziraphale himself supported, there are more things in heaven and earth than we can dream of….when trying to figure out what in the world/Heaven Aziraphale is planning. But this new Good Omens 3 scene, which shows that the Second Coming is kicking off, is certain to prove an important clip. This is why Heaven promoted Aziraphale. They need someone who knows how difficult life on Earth can be. Jesus only had 33 years of experience two thousand years ago. Aziraphale was there for all of it. Literally.
And yet… Despite this new Good Omens 3 clip—We know that it is far from a guarantee that Aziraphale and his less-than-enamored angelic underlings will pull off this plan. That’s if it’s meant to get pulled off. If there’s one thing Good Omens fans know, it’s that even the most capable angel and demon around don’t always know what the real plan is.
We’ll find out with them when we say goodbye to the show later this month. Regardless of the outcome, though, we’re happy to get a sneak peek at Good Omens 3 with this new clip. We sure have missed this motley crew. Good Omens 3—starring Michael Sheen and David Tennant—will release on Prime Video on May 13, 2026. You can watch seasons one and two today.
