WATCH: Exclusive ‘American Gods’ Clip Introduces Mr. Wednesday
For those anxiously awaiting the premiere of American Gods, feast your eyes on this newly released clip!
The clip – taken from the pilot – shows the first meeting between Mr. Wednesday (Ian McShane) and Shadow Moon (Ricky Whittle) as Shadow Moon returns home from prison to attend his wife’s funeral.
American Gods centers on the war brewing between the old and new gods – the traditional gods of mythological roots from around the world steadily losing believers to an upstart pantheon of gods reflecting society’s modern love of money, technology, media, celebrity, and drugs. Its protagonist, Shadow Moon, is an ex-con who becomes bodyguard and traveling partner to Mr. Wednesday, a conman but in reality one of the older gods, on a cross-country mission to gather his forces in preparation to battle the new deities.
The series premieres Sunday, April 30th on Starz.
