AMERICAN GODS (2017) TV Show Trailer: Old & New Gods Collide [Starz, SDCC 2016]

American Gods Comic-Con Trailer

Starz‘s American Gods (2017) TV show trailer from the 2016 San Diego Comic Con International stars Ricky Whittle, Ian McShane, Emily Browning, Yetide Badaki, and Bruce Langley. American Gods‘ plot synopsis (spoilers): based on the novel by Neil Gaiman, “The series will focus on the mysterious Shadow, a man who is released from prison a few days early after serving a three-year sentence for bank robbery when his beloved wife Laura is killed in a car accident. Flying home for the funeral, Shadow is seated next to a man who introduces himself only as Mr. Wednesday, and this man knows more about Shadow’s life, both past and present, than is possible.

Shadow comes to learn that Wednesday is, in fact, the god Odin of Norse mythology and that all of the gods that mankind has ever believed in are alive in human form and live among regular people. Shadow is soon thrust into a gathering conflict between the Old gods and the so-called “New gods,” the [gods reflecting society’s modern love of money, technology, media, celebrity and drugs] who believe there is no longer room on Earth for the old gods.”

I love the American Gods San Diego Comic-Con 2016 Trailer. Shadow and Mr. Wednesday on the plane, introducing themselves to each, is great. When Laura comes back to Shadow, is it a dream or is a God or Gods at play? There are many questions at play with this series, chief among being in what form the battle or battles between the Gods will take?

American Gods also stars Dane Cook, Cloris Leachman, Pablo Schreiber, Peter Stormare, Crispin Glover, Demore Barnes, and Orlando Jones.
