SXSW 2017 – Shadow Moon is a man alone. His life is returned, but his life is gone. He’s got a plan all set up, but no one’s available to help him with it.

Lucky for Shadow, it’s Wednesday.

It’s no spoiler to tell you that about the protagonist of a 16-year-old book. What I can’t tell you, however, is why. American Gods Episode 1.1 “The Bone Orchard,” the pilot of the new STARZ show based on Neil Gaiman’s novel of the same name, is full of characters that are suffering from difficult-to-explain juxtapositions. Rather that frustrate viewers, however, that fact about the show is sure to intrigue; to provide an alluring mist not too different than the white curls of smoke wafting from the white buffalo’s eyes in the series’ trailer before the beast telepathically utters: Believe.

It was back in July during Comic-Con that Starz debuted the first footage for American Gods, their upcoming original series based on the best-selling novel of the same name by Neil Gaiman.

After previewing the first episode this past weekend at SXSW, the cable network has now released another trailer for the show.

Watch the trailer here below.

SXSW 2017 – American Gods is a new STARZ show based on Neil Gaiman’s novel of the same name. We were able to attend an advanced screening of the pilot episode, along with a panel with the cast and crew, which we covered here.

The casting on the Starz TV series adaptation of Neil Gaiman‘s novel American Gods is wrapping up. In addition to the many roles that have already been cast—including the main character Shadow Moon, who is set to be played by The 100 star Ricky Whittle, and Mr. Wednesday, who will be played by Deadwood star Ian McShane—the characters Zorya Vechernyaya, Czernobog, Anubis, and The Jinn have also recently be cast.

The newly announced castings go as follows: Cloris Leachman (The Last Picture Show, Young Frankenstein) will play Zorya; Peter Stormare (Fargo, Armageddon) will play Czernobog; Chris Obi (Snow White and the Huntsman, Ghost in the Shell) plays Anubis; and Mousa Kraish (Superbad, Fast & Furious) plays The Jinn.

This might not exactly a breaking news story automatically worthy of your attention, but it’s Back to the Future-related and we here at Geeks of Doom don’t need any more excuse than that.

io9 has published an extensive collection of candid production photos from the Back to the Future trilogy culled from various sources and fans of the Robert Zemeckis-directed movies. If you scroll down to the end of the article you’ll notice a trio of stills from the early days of filming on the original, back when Eric Stoltz was the first actor cast as Marty McFly.

You can check out those pics – along with a few I included just for fun – here below.
