Easter is approached by Mr. Wednesday on his mission to unite the old gods for the coming war against the new gods -- gods like Media, Technical Boy, and Mr. World. But shes doing just fine -- having settled into her life in Kentucky where she lives an extravagant life. Completely satisfied with the amount of worship she gets each year, Easter isnt particularly moved at first by Mr. Wednesdays attempts to persuade her to join his cause. Easter is portrayed by Kristin Chenoweth, who previously worked with creator Bryan Fuller on the cult TV show Pushing Daisies.American Gods premieres April 30 on Starz.

Bilquis, one of the old gods, is an ancient goddess of love who craves the worship she inspired in eras long gone. Shes eager to find that same reverence in todays world. Bilquis was a minor character in the book, but her role is being expanded for TV. And an aside for fans of the novel: Yes, they're including THAT scene. If you don't know what I'm talking about, I won't spoil it here...and it's so unsafe for work I couldn't tell you anyway. You'll have to see it for yourself.American Gods premieres April 30 on Starz.

Mr. World is the villain in the American Gods story. Hes the leader at the center of the New Gods -- the gods of media and technology who people now worship instead of the old gods. His motives are as mysterious as his knowledge is absolute -- which means he's often challenged more by his subordinates than his enemies. But Mr. World understands that the real threat comes from Mr. Wednesday and his plan to unite the Old Gods.American Gods premieres April 30 on Starz.

Czernobog, a brutal Eastern European man, is actually the embodiment of a Slavic deity who causes all the bad things to happen in the world. Hes one of the old gods approached by Mr. Wednesday while rallying support for the fight against the new and powerful gods -- Technical Boy, Media, among others -- who are on the rise in society. Czernobog wields a sledgehammer -- one he saved from his last job at a slaughterhouse -- and he isnt afraid to use it. Mr. Wednesday views Czernobog, if he can be persuaded, as a crucial fighter in the war hes preparing to wage. Even if it looks like he's never taken a shower.American Gods premieres April 30 on Starz.

Mr. Nancy is from the West African pantheon, where he was known as a trickster spider god. He's eager to share his prodigious gifts of knowledge and speech with anyone who will listen. While loyal to the cause of the old gods, his thirst for chaos at any cost makes him an unreliable member of Wednesday's team. He also gains power and worship as stories are told about him...so I suppose this video just made him a little bit stronger.American Gods premieres April 30 on Starz.

Shadow Moon is serving three years in prison when he gets an unexpected early release (for reasons we won't get into here). Shadow soon finds himself in the orbit of Mr. Wednesday, a charming con man who offers Shadow a job as his bodyguard. A normal enough job for an ex-con, until he finds out that Wednesday is making his way across the country recruiting all of the old gods of ancient mythology -- it turns out theyre real and have settled among humankind. Wednesday's goal is to confront the new gods who rule American life -- gods like Media, Technical Boy, and Mr. World. As a human, Shadow acts as our point of entry into this fantastical world where magic is real and the gods live among us.American Gods premieres April 30 on Starz.
