The Sandman Cast on Why New Episodes Won't Be Called Season 2
60Of Neil Gaiman’s 10-volume comic series (with many spinoffs), The Sandman, the Netflix series starring Tom Sturridge covers only two. Though it draws elements from other volumes, there’s plenty more for the streaming series to adapt and explore within the fantastical universe, and stars Kirby Howell-Baptiste, who plays Death, and Vivienne Acheampong, who plays Lucienne, are eager to get started.
In the first season, fans were introduced to an imprisoned Dream (played by Sturridge), or the Sandman and controller of dreams. Throughout the season, we met many characters on Dream’s quest across timelines and worlds in order to fix the damage that unfolded during his capture, including Acheampong’s head librarian Lucienne, and Dream’s sibling, Howell-Baptiste’s Death. Additionally, the series features Vanesu Samunyai, Patton Oswalt, Gwendoline Christie, Jenna Coleman, and more.
Recently renewed for Season 2, or rather, a continuation, Collider’s Steve Weintraub sat down with The Sandman’s Howell-Baptiste and Acheampong to discuss the highly-anticipated season. During their interview, they admit the wait for renewal was just as long for them as for fans, and that they’re excited to explore more of Gaiman’s universe. They discuss why it isn’t called ‘Season 2,’ as well as a deleted scene from CCXP, and Howell-Baptiste talks about Death joining the rest of the Sandman family.
