Very much looking forward to this.

 

[Platy]

Oh, that's disappointing, I thought this covered the whole book. 8 hours is more than plenty, hopefully they don't stretch the plot too much.

Considering what was said in new characters ... I would LOVE to see it stretched for more characters

New trailer via Deadline

 

[IdreamofHIME]

Can the UK air date be added?

1st May on Amazon Prime

That's a shame, had been looking forward to this.

 

[Steejee]

Ian McShane = automatic watch

Still sad Kings only got one season =/

 

[mokeyjoe]

It's been so long since I read this I've forgotten what happened.

The book was pretty good, I think the premise should make for an interesting show.

 

[Geist-]

So in for this.

 

[wetflame]

April 30th? Hot damn, American Gods for my birthday! Cannot wait.

We're birthday buddies.

That looks so fucking good

New trailer via Deadline

Aaaand region locked.
Or it's just that stupid Starz player that never works for me. It's even worse than the name of the channel...

Just upload your shit to youtube, pls.

Looks like a visual feast a la Hannibal. in.

New trailer via Deadline

why is their video player so fucking shitty. The video won't even start.

I wish YouTube would do some sort of movie and television trailer portal with official partners. I want to just go to a specific URL and see the newest trailers without wading through bullshit channels that repost them with suspect quality, their own bumpers, annotations, etc.

It might even help encourage stuff like this to go straight there at the beginning because they'd get more views with their description and links.

 

[LordOfLore]

Same.

 

[berzeli]

Trailer on twitter in absolutely shittastic quality. But not region locked/even shittier Starz player.

 

[KraftyKrankins]

I guess I have to finally read the book, the trailers above look absolutely amazing.

 

[Cornballer]

Yes, the Starz video player sucks. If I see it up on youtube somewhere, I'll link it. I figure Starz or TVPromosDB will have it sooner or later.

 

[Don Draper's Hat]

He's come a long way since Hollyoaks. Good for him.

Didn't like the book. Never really have liked Gaiman's work. This looks OK. I mean, I have to give it a shot purely because of Ian McShane.

 

[berzeli]

This is neat (and on youtube!):
American Gods: Origins

"Neil Gaiman goes to Iceland, to investigate the origins of his novel AMERICAN GODS... soon to be a television series, near you..." This is a taster for the mini-documentary we filmed about me going to Iceland and explaining where the idea came from, and who the gods are...

 

[LordOfLore]

Ha, Gaiman couldn't get the trailer to work for him either.

[whyamihere]

Ian McShane = automatic watch

Even better that Michael Green is also coshowrunning because Kings was fucking awesome.

 

[Cornballer]

Decent quality youtube link to the new trailer.

I don't think it's region locked.

 

[Kevin]

Wow this looks really good. I love anything Bryan Fuller too and this show definitely has his influence so I'll be there day one. Gives me a new reason to watch my Starz subscription since Ash VS Evil Dead season 2 wrapped up. lol

 

[berzeli]

Decent quality youtube link to the new trailer.

I don't think it's region locked.

It isn't!

And it looks so damn good.

 

[Stinkles]

"It will be glorious, win or lose."

Bryan Fuller shows, period.

Also the Deadline link worked perfectly for me.

 

[berzeli]

And it's up on the official Starz youtube!

 

[Davey Cakes]

I'm sold on the cast alone. Damn.

 

[SCHUEY F1]

I'm ready!!

 

[Pagusas]

And it's up on the official Starz youtube!

Based on that it looks like they've already filmed all the major scenes of the book.

 

[Gin-Shiio]

Oh boy. So in.

 

[Sir Doom]

I guess they changed some character looks. And more mythology flashes. Looking forward to the trippy ness

 

[Kenzodielocke]

Is there cursing and nudity on Starz? So much blood and no cursing would be a bummer.

 

[Cornballer]

Is there cursing and nudity on Starz?

Yup

 

[Rap2thaMoon]

Is there cursing and nudity on Starz? So much blood and no cursing would be a bummer.

Starz has Spartacus and Black sails, if you seen any episode of both you would have an answer to you're question and yes nudity and violence.

 

[TheOddOne]

Cannot wait for this.

Already prepping the OT.

 

[More_Badass]

Well that trailer was crazy. Fuller once again making violence look surreally beautiful, just like Hannibal

 

[Bits N Pieces]

Where can I watch this if im in the UK, Netflix or Amazon maybe?

 

[Polk]

Where can I watch this if im in the UK, Netflix or Amazon maybe?

It's in the OP? On Amazon Prime.

 

[Veelk]

Odd to see Odin with both his eyes.

 

[Haly]

Man this is going to be orgasmic. I'm still reeling from the absolutely miraculous pairing of gaiman and fuller.

 

[Yonafunu]

I'm still a bit apprehensive about Orlando Jones as Mr Nancy, but god damn does this looks good.

 

[BrokenFiction]

From the visuals alone I'm excited about a blu ray release eventually. Great cinematography.

 

[hydruxo]

Looks amazing! Way gorier than I thought it'd be.

 

[JeTmAn81]

I love Gaiman, really liked the book. It's about time he got a TV series, now bring on Sandman!

 

[hydruxo]

I guess they changed some character looks. And more mythology flashes. Looking forward to the trippy ness

Technical Boy is the biggest change. They said they wanted him to represent what the internet is like now since it's changed so much compared to how it was when the book was written. Now he's a snobby kid who vapes haha.

 

[DontBeThatGuy]

Never read the novel, but this looks extremely interesting.

 

[Platy]

That had way more gore than I expected from this adaptation !

AWESOME =D

 

[Purkake4]

New trailer's pretty crazy. The gore kind of fits, as long as it's used in the right context. I hope they don't just have random dudes in the real-real world exploding into balls of blood.

 

[xxracerxx]

I love Gaiman, really liked the book. It's about time he got a TV series, now bring on Sandman!

But he already has? Neverwhere.
