There are bigger sacrifices one might be asked to make than going a little mad
I was really interested in the arc of the episode in general being this reverse descent into madness. So we saw at the beginning of the episode him in his most manic and out of sorts state, and he sort of comes to his senses as the episode goes on. And I wanted the chronology of the flashback to be in reverse, so as he was trying to uncover this mystery of who he is and unearth this– the fog of identity that he had created for himself through these hundreds of years that he’s been here. – Pablo Schreiber
Marilyn Manson is joining with the beautiful people of American Gods for the Starz series’ third season.
No stranger to the small screen, the Sons of Anarchy alum will play blood-thirsty Johan Wengren, lead singer of the Viking death metal band Blood Death — well within the shock rocker’s wheelhouse. Wengren and Blood Death are also a source of power for the Ian McShane-portrayed Mr. Wednesday in his war with the New Gods.
You were a God king.

- You saved your people from their old enemy, the Fomorians. You had fight in you when they needed to fight. Because of you, they survived.
- It was obvious now what was required. After all, their god was a war god.
You were God of the sun, of luck, of craft, art, of everything valuable to civilization. The shining one, they called you. You saved your people from their old enemy. Lamfada, they called you. Long-hand. For your skill with your spear. You had fight in you when they needed to fight. Because of you, they survived.
