Jon Hamm is headed to Amazon to play God’s messenger on Good Omens

Variety

The Mad Men alum will play archangel Gabriel, the primary messenger of God, in the six-episode BBC and Amazon production of the Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman novel Good Omens. “I read Good Omens almost 20 years ago,” he says. “I thought it was one of the funniest, coolest books I’d ever read. It was also, obviously, unfilmable. Two months ago Neil sent me the scripts, and I knew I had to be in it.”
