More stories from Neil Gaiman’s graphic novel coming soon to Netflix.
The new episodes of The Sandman will delve into the conflict between The Dream (Tom Sturridge) and the forces of Hell, led by Lucifer himself (Gwendoline Christie), while also continuing to explore the many challenges the universe is facing after Morpheus’s absence for a century.

Allan Heinberg, showrunner for The Sandman, said:
I am deeply grateful to Netflix and Warner Bros, and to the artists and crew who made our first 11 episodes so magical, and to the extraordinary Sandman fans who relentlessly pleaded – relentlessly ended – for the series and allowed us to continue the story of Morpheus.
The Sandman Controlled Netflix Success
The Sandman television series is designed and produced by Neil Gaiman (who created this iteration of the character in his DC Comics original series), Allan Heinberg, and David S. Goyer. Along with Tom Sturridge and Gwendoline Christie, The Sandman stars Boyd Holbrook, Patton Oswalt, Vivienne Achempong, Charles Dance, Jenna Coleman, David Thewlis, Stephen Fry, Kirby Howell-Baptiste, Mason Alexander Park, Donna Preston, Vanesu Samunyai (formerly known as Kyo Ra), John Cameron Mitchell, Asim Chaudhry, Sanjeev Bhaskar, Joely Richardson, Niamh Walsh, Sandra James-Young and Razan Jammal.
Executive Producer David S. Goyer added:
Now we can meet the rest of the Endless! The support we have received from our partners at Netflix and Warner Bros has been phenomenal. And the reaction from the fans made this 10-year journey worthy of any obstacle. It was a true labor of love.
