American Gods confirmed off a primary take a look at Season 3 throughout an NYCC 2020 panel right now.After a panel together with Ricky Whittle (Shadow Moon), Emily Browning (Laura Moon), Omid Abtahi (Salim), Bruce Langley (Technical Boy), Tetide Badaki (Bilquis), Ashley Reyes (new character Cordelia), and author Neil Gaiman concluded, an “interruption” from the present’s New Gods led into a primary teaser trailer for the following season:
The teaser is characteristically uncommon, that includes clips of younger Shadow Moon set towards the story of the present day Shadow heading to the Wisconsin small city of Lakeside to flee from his previous. As you would possibly count on, that does not fairly work out, and we see a variety of gods – together with Ian McShane’s Mr. Wednesday – earlier than we see Shadow Moon start to simply accept that he is a god too.
A lot of the panel facilities on how this season takes the comparatively small portion of the unique American Gods guide that makes up the Lakeside part, and the way the season expands on many characters’ tales to blow that up into 10 episodes:
“What’s magical about what the earlier creators concerned have dropped at American Gods is that this superb ensemble forged, which isn’t there within the guide,” defined Gaiman. “So Shadow and Shadow’s story was in some methods the best a part of it – that was already specified by the guide.”
No launch date has been set, however American Gods Season 3 is ready to premiere in early 2021.
