Former Hollyoaks star Ricky Whittle on the new season of Amazon Prime's American Gods
Ricky Whittle has come a long way since Hollyoaks. After leaving the UK to forge a career for himself in America, the former soap star - who was born in Oldham - landed a role in Amazon Prime series, American Gods. And the fantasy drama (which is based on the book of the same name by Good Omens writer Neil Gaiman) is now about to return for a third series, in which Gaiman says Shadow Moon - Whittle’s character - is “front and centre”. Affable star Whittle, 39, has an almost child-like excitement as he describes getting to work with “incredible superstars” on the series.
