The one who wrote Coraline, and co-wrote the book of Good Omens and made the TV show, also the Sandman comics writer and co-creator who made the Sandman TV show. Quite nice really.
I hope they remove the bits about Shadwell’s racism from the tv series. I understand what they were going for and that including it isn’t condoning that attitude, but the way it’s never really addressed makes it seem like the vibes that part of the novel is giving off is essentially “Casual racism is harmless and funny, actually,” which i really don’t think is a message the world needs right now
They is me, and yes, I did. (Along with a homophobic comment from a small kid at a party, which was originally intended as something that would show how awful the kid was but which I simply wouldn’t do now, and the Wasabi car voice messages, which I did not feel I could pull off in any way that wasn’t offensive, but given that the budget didn’t stretch to creating a completely original dreadful car we just gave Newt a Reliant Robin as Dick Turpin anyway.)
Shadwell was still pretty awful in the script, but somehow on the screen Michael McKean manages to imbue him with so much joy in what he does that you cannot help falling just a little bit in love with him.
Really, really glad to hear about the updates and also:
Dick Turpin being a three-wheeled lemon is perfect.
Exactly. Our one is a sort of blue and has DICK TURPIN painted on the back.
