Stardust May Mean Good Omens

Partly due to the success of the movie Stardust, an adaptation of Neil Gaiman's book by the same name , Terry Gilliam and fans of Terry Pratchett's and Neil Gaiman's book Good Omens have been given new hope that the movie of Good Omens might finally be made after the movie was shelved numerous times in the past.

The film version of Good Omens has suffered funding troubles as well as major production conflicts to such an extent that most fans have given up on Gilliam's adaptation ever seeing the light of day. However, due to the successes of Stardust and the associated author's contributions to the much talked about CGI version of Beowulf, Terry Gilliam expressed a new hope for his movie plans reaching fruition when he spoke with Empire, saying:

"And I thought with Neil, with Stardust and with Beowulf and there's another one - an animated film, a Henry Selick thing he's written [Coraline], I was thinking he's really hot now, so maybe there's a chance. I mean it's such a wonderful book."

Mister Gilliam also said: "I think our script is pretty good, too. We did quite a few changes. We weren't as respectful as we ought to have been. But Neil's happy with it."
