'The Sandman' is a fantasy horror series featuring Morpheus, the Sandman, who rules the Dreaming, a realm of dreams and nightmares. The show is based on a celebrated comic series that ran from 1989 to 1996. Its second season, made of six episodes, will premiere on July 3, 2025, followed by another five episodes on July 24 and a bonus on July 31. Netflix announced the series will conclude after its second season, citing limited story material from the comics and the show's high production costs as primary reasons for its cancellation.
The fantasy horror revolves around Morpheus, a cosmic entity also known as the Sandman, who controls a mystical realm, the Dreaming, where every living person's dreams and nightmares take place.
The show is expensive to make, and its creator, Neil Gaiman, was accused of sexual abuse, leading to its conclusion after two seasons.
'The Sandman' series has always been focused exclusively on Dream's story, and back in 2022, when we looked at the remaining Dream material from the comics, we knew we only had enough story for one more season.
Warner Bros. Television was considering ending 'The Sandman' with season two while it was filming in 2023.
