Description

Starring Ricky Whittle as Shadow Moon and Ian McShane as Mr. Wednesday, American Gods is a drama series adapted from Neil Gaiman’s (Good Omens, Stardust) best-selling novel about a war brewing between Old Gods and New Gods: the traditional gods of mythological roots from around the world steadily losing believers to an upstart pantheon of gods reflecting society’s modern love of money, technology, media, celebrity and drugs. We were forged in God’s image, but the Gods are also made in ours — and in Season Two the battle moves inexorably toward crisis point as the destinies of gods and mortals collide. While Mr. World plots revenge for the attack against him in Season One, Shadow throws in his lot with Wednesday’s attempt to convince the Old Gods of the case for full-out war, with Laura and Mad Sweeney in tow. A council at the House on the Rock explodes into chaos, sending deities both Old and New on quests across America that will converge on Cairo, Illinois: forcing Shadow to carve out a place as a believer in this strange new world of living gods — a dark world where change demands commitment, and faith requires terrible sacrifice. With bonus features including: New York Comic Con 2018 Panel – moderated by Patton Oswalt who welcomed Neil Gaiman as well as a huge portion of the cast, including Ricky Whittle (Shadow Moon), Emily Browning (Laura Moon), Crispin Glover (Mr. World), Orlando Jones (Mr. Nancy), Yetide Badake (Bilquis), Pablo Schreiber (Mad Sweeney) and more to discuss Season Two in detail. Neil Gaiman’s America – the writer of American Gods explores his experiences of living and travelling through America and how he found an authentic sense of history and beliefs to interweave in his beloved novel.
