Neil Gaiman to Write ‘Good Omens’ TV Miniseries
Neil Gaiman plans to write a six-part television series
based on “Good Omens,” the acclaimed 1990 fantasy novel
he co-authored with the late Terry Pratchett.
尼爾蓋曼大神準備開始寫作一個分為六集的電視影集的劇本。此劇改編自1990年
他與
泰瑞普萊契爵爺共同寫作的奇幻小說<好預兆>。
The Guardian reports Gaiman made the announcement
Thursday in London at a memorial event for Pratchett
, who passed away in March 2015. Although Gaiman had
previously declined to adapt the novel, explaining,
“Terry and I had a deal that we would only work on
‘Good Omens’ things together,” Pratchett left a
letter posthumously, giving his blessing to his friend
to write the series himself.
衛報轉述了
蓋曼大神在周四一場紀念於2015年過世的
普萊契爵爺的活動中公布的消息。雖然
蓋曼大神曾經拒絕改編這本小說，並解釋：
「
普萊契和我曾經有協議，我們只會一起完成有關＜好預兆＞的事情
」
然而
普萊契爵爺留下了一封信鼓勵他的摯友親自完成這書的改編。
“Good Omens” or, more fully, “Good Omens: The Nice and
Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch,” is a comedic
take of the coming of the apocalypse. It centers on the angel
Aziraphale and the demon Crowley, who attempt to short-circuit
the End Times, and the Antichrist who, because of a mixup at
the hospital, is a seemingly normal boy raised by English parents.
＜好預兆＞或以全名稱之－＜好預兆：女巫阿格妮思．納特良準預言集＞，
是一本基於默示錄預言創作的喜劇。故事圍繞在天使阿茲拉斐爾及魔鬼克蠕力
在末日將來時的經歷，登場的還有因為一起醫院調包意外以至於被一對普通父母
養大的敵基督。
Terry Gilliam had hoped to adapt “Good Omens” for the big
screen as far back as 2002, and in 2011 it was announced Terry
Jones and Terry Jones would instead produce a television version.
Of course, neither of those materialized. BBC Radio 4 did at last
adapt the novel in 2014, with Gaiman and Pratchett appearing in cameos.
泰瑞·吉列姆曾在2002年表示將＜好預兆＞搬上大螢幕的意願，
2011年時泰瑞·瓊斯也表示同樣的意願，不久後則改成打算先製
作一個電視系列。然而這些計畫都沒有成真。2014年，BBC廣播4台
製作了好預兆的廣播劇，蓋曼和普萊契都有參與客串演出。
