Some really crazy shit goes down in the latest trailer for Starz' series adaptation of Neil Gaiman's American Gods. This is an awesomely dark trailer, and as you'll see, it's filled with lots of blood gushing and raining from the sky! This series looks absolutely stunning, and I can't wait to watch it! This trailer is packed full of incredibly cool visuals that are sure to get fans excited.

The series premiered at SXSW this week, and it was met with a lot of positive reactions. Judging from what people are saying, this series will be an incredible adaptation of Gaiman's book.

American Gods finds traditional Old Gods, with mythological roots from around the world, fearing irrelevance as their believers die off or are seduced by the money, technology and celebrity offered by the New Gods. The 100‘s Ricky Whittle plays Shadow Moon, an ex-con who, left adrift by the recent death of his wife, becomes bodyguard and traveling partner to conman Mr. Wednesday (Deadwood‘s Ian McShane). But in truth, Mr. Wednesday is a powerful old deity, on a cross-country mission to build an army and reclaim his lost glory.

Bryan Fuller (Hannibal) and Michael Green (Kings) are developing the series, and it has a great cast that includes Emily Browning (Sucker Punch) as Laura Moon, Pablo Schreiber (Orange Is the New Black) as Mad Sweeney, Yetide Badaki (Sequestered) as Bilquis, Bruce Langley as Technical Boy, Crispin Glover (Back to the Future) as Mr. World and Orlando Jones (Sleepy Hollow) as Mr. Nancy. Kristin Chenoweth (Pushing Daisies), Gillian Anderson (Hannibal), Cloris Leachman (Raising Hope), Peter Stormare (Prison Break), Corbin Bernsen (Psych) and Jonathan Tucker (Kingdom) also have roles in the series.

American Gods is set to premiere on Starz on April 30th. Enjoy the new trailer!
