I just avoid everything she writes like the plague these days - much better for my mental health!

Good Omens: I'd read somewhere that Gaiman included/wanted to include more of the characters from Heaven and Hell (including some who may not appear in the book?), but that trailer follows the plot closely!

It's funny they went with Bowie instead of something from Queen for the promo, but possibly the Mercury biopic pipped them on that, or something. (Unless that's the Bowie-Queen "Under Pressure?" ETA: Oh, it is! I was distracted by the dialogue. Haha.)

A friend pointed out that it was too late for the Best of Queen album though.

It is included on the Platinum three-disk Greatest Hits set (along with the George Michael-Queen "Somebody to Love," which is superb)!
