Gods old and new assemble in the newest trailer for Starz’s adaptation of “American Gods.”
Ricky Whittle stars in the adaptation of the Neil Gaiman novel, which portrays a war between the old gods of biblical and mythological roots and a new group of gods “reflecting society’s modern love of money, technology, media, celebrity and drugs.”
Emily Browning and Ian McShane also star. Michael Green and Bryan Fuller will act as showrunners and executive producers, while David Slade will direct.
The new footage features first looks at cast members including Kristin Chenoweth as Easter, Cloris Leachman as Zorya Vechernyaya and Crispin Glover as Mr. World, all dieties in a battle for dominance.
Still mysterious is Gillian Anderson, who plays the god of media.
Eight episodes of “American Gods” will premiere Sunday, April 30 at 9 p.m. ET on Starz.
