Mireille Enos has been cast as War and says: "A script this clever, this smart, this current is very rare. How could I turn down playing one of the Horsemen of the Apocalypse??? Especially with the incredible group who's come together to make it. It's going to be FUN!" Lourdes Faberes who will play Pollution comments: "It's a gift for any actor to read such a brilliant story let alone be chosen to play a part in it!

Yusuf Gatewood will be playing Famine and comments: "I'm excited to be playing Famine - one of the Four Horsemen in what promises an apocalyptic adaption of Good Omens!"Videos
