It isn't long until we get to see American Gods for ourselves, but until then, showrunner Bryan Fuller continues to tease everyone with cryptic hints.

He's posted a collage picture on Twitter captioning it: "The many faces of media" featuring four very famous faces.

A rather interesting play on words - and, er, faces - since Gillian Anderson plays Media in the six-part series.

A rather clever fan has been searching and found all the pictures that the images are from:

Adapted from Neil Gaiman's novel of the same name, American Gods will follow Hollyoaks and The 100's Ricky Whittle as the pretty-cool-named Shadow Moon in his life after prison.

After stumbling upon the even-odder-named Mr Wednesday (Ian McShane), who is actually the Norse god Odin, Shadow finds himself caught up in a conflict between the old gods of myths and legend and the new gods being worshipped in modern times.

The show will look at some pretty tough issues such as religion and America's gun culture, and will also feature the actual Jesus Christ.

The first episode was shown at SXSW and the verdict from those who watched it seemed to be very positive indeed.

Also starring in the series are the likes of Sucker Punch's Emily Browning, Mr Brooks's Dane Cook and porn-stache himself, Orange is the New Black's Pablo Schreiber.

American Gods airs on April 30 on Starz in the US and May 1 on Amazon Prime in the UK.
