I know people have a lot of ideas about dream casts for the Good Omens miniseries and this choice isn’t a popular one. Or even, to my knowledge, a preexistent one. I just want to toss it out there into the abyss of ‘unpopular tumblr opinions’.
Miles Jupp as Aziraphale.
So why is this the only firm feeling I have about my own dream cast? Well, apart from the fact that Miles Jupp is a cherub faced Englishman, there’s first impressions:
Many people, meeting Aziraphale for the first time, formed three impressions: that he was English, that he was intelligent, and that he was gayer than a tree full of monkeys of nitrous oxide. - Good Omens
A lot of people hear the way I speak and assume that I must be a homosexual. Don’t know what the logic is there. I don’t know whether they think I’ve had to learn to enunciate clearly with a mouth full of ’other gentleman’. - Miles Jupp
There’s the fact that he plays a posh, curly haired, bespectacled inventor who lives in a pink castle and wears a blue and pink tarten kilt in the British children’s show, ‘Balamory’.
Also the quote on the photoset above.
Did I mention he studied Divinity at Edinburgh?
I’ll shut up now.
