#SDCC '16: The First Look at American Gods!

"A recently released ex-convict named Shadow meets a mysterious man who calls himself "Wednesday" and who knows more than he first seems to about Shadow's life and past."

A story by Neil Gaiman about a bunch of Old Gods coming to America to kick some New God ass sounds good to us, especially with Hannibal's Bryan Fuller at the helm. The cast, which includes the incomparable Ian McShane, Jonathan Tucker, Emily Browning, Gillian Anderson, Pablo Scheriber, Peter Stormare, and Kristin Chenoweth, looks pretty solid too.

This trailer is a fairly vague tease, but it looks as if it's going to do the novel justice. Check it out below.


American Gods will premiere on Starz sometime in 2017.
