"The Sandman" to End with Extra Episode
Yara Sameh
Netflix's adaptation of Neil Gaiman's '
The Sandman
' is still ending with Season 2, but fans will get one more episode than they believed.
The giant streamer
revealed
on Tuesday that, in addition to the 11 episodes already announced, a bonus twelfth episode will be released on July 31. The bonus episode is titled 'The Sandman Presents: Death: The High Cost of Living' and will focus on the character Death (Kirby Howell-Baptiste).
As previously announced, the first six episodes of Season 2 will premiere on July 3, with the next five premiering on July 24. Netflix has also revealed the 11 titles for those episodes, which can be seen below.
Season 2 will bring several fan-favorite storylines from the comics to life, including the 'Season of Mists,' 'Brief Lives,' 'The Kindly Ones,' and 'The Sandman: Overture' collections.
The season will also include single-issue stories such as 'Tales in the Sand,' 'A Midsummer Night's Dream,' 'The Song of Orpheus,' 'Thermidor,' and 'The Tempest,' among others.
Per the description for the second and final chapter of 'The Sandman,' 'After a fateful reunion with his family, Dream of the Endless (Tom Sturridge) must face one impossible decision after another as he attempts to save himself, his kingdom, and the waking world from the epic fallout of his past misdeeds. To make amends, Dream must confront longtime friends and foes, gods, monsters, and mortals. But the path to forgiveness is full of unexpected twists and turns, and true absolution may cost Dream everything. Based on the beloved award-winning DC comic series, the second season of 'The Sandman' will tell Dream's story arc in full to its thrilling conclusion.'
The cast for Season 2 also includes Mason Alexander Park, Donna Preston, Esmé Creed-Miles, Adrian Lester, Barry Sloane, Patton Oswalt, Vivienne Acheampong, Gwendoline Christie, Jenna Coleman, Ferdinand Kingsley, Stephen Fry, Asim Chaudhry, Sanjeev Bhaskar, Razane Jammal, Ruairi O'Connor, Freddie Fox, Clive Russell, Laurence O'Fuarain, Ann Skelly, Douglas Booth, Jack Gleeson, Indya Moore, and Steve Coogan.
Netflix and 'The Sandman' showrunner Allan Heinberg had plotted the second season to be the final since before it was filmed in the summer of 2023. However, the streamer did not confirm the end of the show until January of this year, which coincided with the timing of sexual misconduct accusations leveled against 'The Sandman' graphic novel author and series executive producer Neil Gaiman.
