Netflix has reignited the world of The Sandman, announcing the continuation of Season 2’s production in London. This development comes as a celebratory mark of the comic series’ 35th anniversary. Fans of Neil Gaiman’s imaginative universe have much to look forward to as the show picks up from its unexpected pause due to the SAG-AFTRA actors’ strike.

Season 1, which premiered in August 2022, delved into the first two volumes of Gaiman’s comics, ‘Preludes & Nocturnes’ and ‘The Doll’s House.’ An extra episode also featured the stories “Dream of a Thousand Cats” and “Calliope.” The excitement doesn’t end there, as Netflix teased a behind-the-scenes photo from the set, showcasing Tom Sturridge as Dream and Mason Alexander Park as Desire, heightening anticipation for what’s to come.

Gaiman, in his letter, reflects on the journey of The Sandman, emphasizing the show’s distinctive approach in a landscape filled with superhero narratives. His vision, combined with the dedication of the show’s team, promises to bring new depth to the series. Showrunner Allan Heinberg, along with Gaiman and David S. Goyer, are at the helm, ensuring the faithful adaptation of the comics.
