Good Omens Teaser Trailer: 10 Things You Might've Missed

8. Aliens On Earth (And Dick Turpin)

One of the many unusual and supernatural occurrences caused by the Anti-Christ coming into power, an almost comically child-like alien spaceship is seen flying down onto a highway and passing a car in the teaser's opening sequence.

Readers of the book will know that this is a side-effect of the young anti-Christ imagining aliens coming to Earth to offer only "a message of universal peace and cosmic harmony an' suchlike".

Mostly friendly, if not dissimilar to police pulling someone over to explain they were going a little too fast over the speed limit, the aliens in this instance tell Newton Pulsifer, representative of all of Earth, to fix it and its under-regulation ice caps.

This brief glimpse of the alien space-ship straight out of an old B-movie in the teaser only spells out what's to come. Apart from that treat, viewers also get to see Newt's car, Dick Turpin, another staple of the book. That's a lot to look forward to for something that's less than a second.
