After several years in prison, Shadow (Ricky Whittle) finally regains his freedom, but he is not happy. His wife Laura (Emilymeijubar.netBrowning) died in a car accident a few days ago. On the way home, he was harassed by a man who called himself "Wednesday" (Ian McShane). In the end, Shadow was hired by Wednesday to become his bodyguard. It turns out that Wednesday's true identity is Odin, the Norse god. Due to the rapid development of modern civilization, the ancient gods have gradually been forgotten, and the new gods represented by pistols, drugs, and entertainment have risen rapidly. The latter tried every means to expel the old gods, and Odin, as the representative of the old gods, looked for partners everywhere to fight against the bullying of the new gods. In the prosperous era, the war between gods kicked off... This film is adapted from Neil Gaiman's original work of the same name.
