Coming to Netflix in August 2022 is The Sandman, the highly-anticipated series based on the DC comic book by Neil Gaiman.
The Sandman is an upcoming American fantasy drama television series based on the 1989–1996 comic book written by Neil Gaiman and published by DC Comics. The series was developed by Gaiman, David S. Goyer, and Allan Heinberg for the streaming service Netflix, and is being produced by DC Entertainment and Warner Bros.
Like the comic, The Sandman tells the story of Dream, the titular Sandman. A rich blend of modern myth and dark fantasy in which contemporary fiction, historical drama and legend are seamlessly interwoven. The Sandman follows the people and places affected by Morpheus, the Dream King, as he mends the cosmic — and human — mistakes he’s made during his vast existence.
It stars Tom Sturridge as Dream, with Gwendoline Christie, Vivienne Acheampong, Boyd Holbrook, Charles Dance, Asim Chaudhry, and Sanjeev Bhaskar in supporting roles.
The Sandman is scheduled to debut on Netflix on August 5, 2022 with its first ten-episode season.
