Netflix’s television adaptation of Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman lurks in the form of Season 2, which will likely arrive over two years after Season 1 first debuted on the streamer in August 2022.

Netflix also launched Dead Boy Detectives, based on another of Gaiman’s comic books set within the universe of The Sandman in April 2024, which adds layers to the story and realm. Season 2 paused production during the double strike in Hollywood in 2023, but now that they are back on track, casting news has been announced as the finish line is becoming less Endless for the next installment of the series.

Is The Sandman Season 2 in production?

November 29, 2023, saw the second installment of The Sandman return to production. Neil Gaiman, who wrote the comic books on which the series is based, wrote a letter about the re-start of production...

Netflix revealed a behind-the-scenes first look on Thursday of Season 2 of “The Sandman,” the ongoing adaptation of Neil Gaiman’s DC graphic novel series, as part of the streamer’s Geeked Week promotional efforts. The season will involve the “Season of Mists” storyline from the comics, in which Lucifer (Gwendoline Christie) abdicates control of Hell and presents Morpheus, aka Dream (Tom Sturridge), with the key to its gates, causing many immortals to try to convince Morpheus to give the key to them.

The behind the scenes featurette provides a first look at one of those contingents: the Norse gods Thor (Laurence O’Fuarain), Loki (Freddie Fox) and Odin (Clive Russell), who attend what executive producer and showrunner Allan Heinberg calls a “banquet” that Dream throws “for all the visiting deities and gods and fairies.”

The featurette also teases the introduction of Dream’s other siblings: Destiny (Adrian Lester), Delirium (Esmé Creed-Miles...

Netflix's The Sandman recently wrapped up filming on its second season and is now in post-production. The show will have a big presence at Geeked Week later this month, where we can expect a sneak peek at the new batch of episodes. In the meantime, Douglas Booth (Cluracan) has been singing the show's praises, saying it's "gone up a level" from season 1.

The high praise from Booth comes as a huge relief to Sandman fans. The previous few months have been a struggle for fans who've been keeping track of the production. While no specific details have been revealed, leaked photos from filming suggest that the show is being filmed through to its conclusion. We've seen scenes being filmed fromThe Kindly Ones, the endgame of the comics. In a reported 12 episodes, the show is cramming a crazy amount of story into season 2.

Douglas Booth's Cluracan will be one of...

Vertigo Releasing has acquired UK-Ireland rights to Polly Steele’s Four Letters Of Love starring Pierce Brosnan and Helena Bonham Carter.

Vertigo is scheduling a theatrical release for the film for spring 2025.

Four Letters Of Love is based on Niall Williams’ 1997 Irish novel of the same name, about a couple who seem made for each other, pulled together by ghosts, fate and the power of true love. Fionn O’Shea and Ann Skelly play the lovers, with Brosnan and Carter as their parents, and Gabriel Byrne and Olwen Fouere also among the cast.

The Sandman is returning for its second season on Netflix , and nine cast additions have been revealed -- Ruairi O'Connor, Indya Moore, Ann Skelly, Douglas Booth, Freddie Fox, Laurence O'Fuarain, Clive Russell, Jack Gleeson, and Steve Coogan (photos below). The fantasy drama series, inspired by the Neil Gaiman comics, debuted in August 2022 and was renewed three months later.

The second season of The Sandman stars Tom Sturridge, Patton Oswalt, Vivienne Acheampong, Gwendoline Christie, Jenna Coleman, Ferdinand Kingsley, Stephen Fry, Asim Chaudhry, Sanjeev Bhaskar, Vanesu Samunyai, and Razane Jammal.  In the story, Morpheus (Sturridge) is the personification of dreams and one of the seven Endless. He was captured in an occult ritual in 1916 and was then held captive. After 106 years, Dream escapes and sets out to restore order to his realm of the Dreaming.

Netflix has announced a host of names joining season 2 of Neil Gaiman’s ‘The Sandman’ including Steve Coogan and Douglas Booth.

Also joining the cast are Ruairi O’Connor, Freddie Fox, Clive Russell, Laurence O’Fuarain, Ann Skelly, Jack Gleeson and Indya Moore.

Returning cast members include Tom Sturridge, Kirby, Mason Alexander Park, Donna Preston, Patton Oswalt, Vivienne Acheampong, Gwendoline Christie, Jenna Coleman, Ferdinand Kingsley, Stephen Fry, Asim Chaudhry, Sanjeev Bhaskar, Vanesu Samunyai, and Razane Jammal.

When the Sandman, aka Dream (Tom Sturridge) — the powerful cosmic being who controls all our dreams — is unexpectedly captured and held prisoner for over a century, he must journey across different worlds and timelines to fix the chaos his absence has caused.

Based on the beloved award-winning DC comic series written by Neil Gaiman, the series is a rich, character-driven blend of myth and dark fantasy woven together throughout ten epic chapters following Dream’s many adventures.

La segunda temporada de “Sandman”, de Netflix, suma nuevas incorporaciones a su reparto.

Basada en la galardonada serie de cómics de DC escrita por Neil Gaiman, “Sandman” es una gran combinación de mitos y fantasías oscuras que siguen las aventuras de Sueño.

La primera temporada gira en torno a Sandman – o Sueño (Tom Sturridge) – el poderoso ser cósmico que controla todos los sueños y que, tras ser capturado y encarcelado durante más de un siglo, debe embarcarse en un viaje a través de diferentes mundos y épocas para resolver el caos que provocó su ausencia.

Entre las nuevas caras que se unen al reparto se encuentran Ruairi O’Connor (“Expediente Warren: Obligado por el Demonio”), que interpretará a Orfeo, el poeta, músico y oráculo, hijo único de Sueño y la musa Calíope, Freddie Fox (“Slow Horses”), que dará vida a Loki,...

The first season of Netflix's long-awaited Neil Gaiman adaptation The Sandman was, aptly, the stuff dreams are made of. Blurring the lines between serialised and episodic storytelling, and operating - aptly - in an almost dreamlike mode throughout its duration, the streamer's take on Gaiman's legendarily lore-filled 75-comic dark fantasy was the perfect introduction to the tale of Tom Sturridge's Lord of Dreams, Morpheus, and his Endless siblings. And with Season 2 already in production, today Netflix have announced a slew of exciting new additions to the cast for the upcoming series.

Playing characters from The Sandman collections Season Of Mists and Brief Lives, the cohort assembled to help usher in our return to the dream world includes *deep breath* Ruairi O'Connor (The Morning Show) as poet Orpheus, Game Of Thrones alumnus Clive Russell and Jack Gleeson as Odin and malevolent hobgoblin Puck respectively, Freddie Fox (Slow Horses) as God of Chaos Loki,...

The Sandman is Morpheus, also known as Dream of the Endless. And the Endless never end, right? I mean, it’s right there in the name.

Yet, with the show’s latest casting announcement, it’s clear that producers of the Netflix series The Sandman have the end in mind. The latest characters to appear in the series include some major players in Neil Gaiman‘s climactic tale World’s End, including Morpheus’s son Orpheus, Puck from Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, and Norse gods Loki, Thor, and Odin.

Orpheus will be played by Ruairi O’Connor, best known for The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It and The Morning Show. Comic book readers know Orpheus as the son of Morpheus and Calliope, the muse kidnapped by insecure writers in the episode bearing her name. Newcomers to the Sandman story were struck at how cruelly Morpheus treated Calliope, and...

After spending decades in development hell, a live-action adaptation of the Neil Gaiman comic book series The Sandman actually made it into production and was released into the world as a Netflix series in August of 2022. (Read our review Here.) Season 2 of the show went into production last year, then had to be put on pause for a while due to the writers and actors strikes. Thankfully, The Sandman season 2 was able to resume production as soon as those strikes came to an end, and a couple months ago we heard that new cast additions include Esmé Creed-Miles (Hanna) as Delirium, Adrian Lester (Hustle) as Destiny, and Barry Sloane (Pleasureland) as The Prodigal. Now the names of several more new cast members and characters have been revealed:

After decades in various stages of development, Netflix was the studio that was finally able to bring “The Sandman” to life on screen. And believe it or not, it was apparently a pretty big hit. Now, the series has begun production on its second season, and we now know what group of folks are being added to the growing ensemble.

Good thing The Dreaming is an endless expanse, because The Sandman Season 2 is starting to get a lot more crowded.

Game of Thrones‘ Jack Gleeson will join Netflix’s fantasy series for its sophomore run, TVLine has learned. He’ll play Puck, who is described as “a malevolent hobgoblin who serves as the royal jester to King Auberon of Faerie. Puck is fascinated by mortals and enjoys nothing more than making sport of them for his own amusement. He’s also the inspiration for Shakespeare’s Puck in A Midsummer Night’s Dream.”

“The Sandman” is adding several new cast members to its already growing lineup for Season 2, and these actors will be playing characters introduced in fan-favorite storylines from Neil Gaiman’s beloved DC graphic novel series, including Ruairi O’Connor, who has been cast as the son of Tom Sturridge’s Dream.

Netflix announced on its Tudum website Tuesday that O’Connor will play Orpheus : “the poet, musician, and oracle, is the only child of Dream and the muse, Calliope. Orpheus is an idealistic, romantic, young man – and very much his father’s son – until tragedy strikes and reveals to him the true nature of love.”

Also joining “The Sandman” cast for Season 2, per Tudum, are Freddie Fox as Loki, Clive Russell as Odin, Laurence O’Fuarain as Thor, Ann Skelly as Nuala, Douglas Booth as Cluracan and Jack Gleeson as Puck, all characters featured in the “Season of Mists” arc from “The Sandman” graphic novels.

Stranger Things is only about halfway done filming its fifth and final season, if I mathed the math right.

Since he was nominated for both an Oscar and a BAFTA (which he later won) for his scene-stealing supporting performance in The Banshees of Inisherin, there’s been much talk about Barry Keoghan’s inspiring rise to fame.

As will likely be etched into Irish folklore as his Hollywood trajectory continues its sharp ascent, the Dubliner — born in one of the city’s most disadvantaged neighborhoods — would spend seven years in foster homes as a child. It was only around 2008, aged 16, when Keoghan’s love of movies was piqued by an ad in a shop window looking for actors for a new crime drama that was being shot locally. Three years later, he landed a role in Irish TV series Love/Hate (which would become a breeding ground for young Irish talent), followed by 2014’s indie hit ‘72, before breaking out internationally in 2017 with both Dunkirk and The Killing of a Sacred Deer.

The Nevers was cancelled and pulled from HBO Max last year, but the second half of the first (and now only) season never aired. Thankfully, fans of the series will get the chance to watch those unseen episodes as The Nevers will soon be available to stream on Tubi.

Set in Victorian London, The Nevers follows a group of people, mostly women, known as the Touched, who suddenly manifest abnormal abilities. Among them are Amalia True (Laura Donnelly), a mysterious and quick-fisted widow, and her best friend Penance Adair (Ann Skelly), a brilliant inventor. The series was created by Joss Whedon, who departed halfway through its production and was replaced by Philippa Goslett.

The Nevers is coming to Tubi today. Viewers will see all 12 episodes of the first season air in rotation on the streaming service after their initial airing. Unfortunately, they aren't available on-demand so one has to watch them "live". An ad-supported streaming service, Tubi has made a deal to also stream all seasons of cancelled HBO shows like Westworld, Raised by Wolves, and The Time Traveler’s Wife.

Production on The Nevers was shut down several times due to the pandemic. The historical sci-fi series debuted on HBO in April 2021 and aired for six episodes. The remaining six episodes were expected to be released in 2022 but never materialized. HBO cancelled the series in December and the search to find a new home to air the series began.

The Nevers, one of the many shows pulled off HBO Max, has finally landed at its new home on Tubi, with all 12 episodes becoming available on the platform starting February 13. The episodes will release in a brief window during this time, and executive producer and showrunner Philippa Goslett divulged to TVLine some new information about six never-before-seen episodes that will premiere on Tubi the same day. The Nevers is set against the backdrop of Victorian London in August of 1896. During that time, a supernatural event rocks the city and leaves specific individuals bestowed with special abilities ranging from “wondrous to disturbing.” Their abilities are referred to as “turns,” and these gifted humans are pushed into a new underclass filled with danger. When it becomes clear this new class needs protection, widow Amalia True (Outlander‘s Laura Donnelly) and young inventor Penance Adair (Vikings‘ Ann Skelly) take it upon themselves.

HBO and HBO Max are becoming very unpredictable.

Ever since the Warner Bros. Discovery merger, there have been plenty of controversial decisions from the higher-ups at the company.

If you thought Minx was the only cancellation this week, then we have bad news.

HBO Max has split up with Love Life, canceling the romantic anthology after two seasons.

The writing had been on the wall with the lack of updates following the Season 2 finale back in November 2021.

The first season was headlined by Anna Kendrick, while the second had William Jackson Harper at the forefront.

The series has also been pulled from HBO Max, meaning there's a chance fans will never get to rewatch the series again.

Sam Boyd, the creator and co-showrunner, reflected on the cancellation on Twitter.

“Bummed that this is now a thing that can happen! Gonna try to figure out somewhere else for it to live,...

The work of Amalia and Penance is over. Deadline reports that both Westworld and The Nevers are leaving the HBO Max streaming service. Westworld was cancelled earlier this year after four seasons on HBO. The Nevers, which has been M.I.A. since 2021, has now also been cancelled.

Despite its recent cancellation, you would expect that a series as acclaimed as Westworld would remain on HBO Max for future viewing, but that doesn’t seem to be the case. Deadline has reported that Westworld, as well as The Nevers, will be removed from HBO Max. This seems to be yet another cost-cutting measure from Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav, but it likely won’t sit well with fans who expect to be able to watch HBO shows on the studio’s own streaming services.

Deadline hears that both Westworld and The Nevers are “likely to resurface on other company platforms” after they are removed from HBO Max. This also marks the official cancellation of The Nevers, which aired the first half of its debut season last year. The second half of the first season hasn’t been scheduled, but with the series being removed from HBO Max,...

HBO Max is cleaning house again. After the Warner Bros. Discovery streamer removed over 60 titles from the platform without warning this August — many of which were originals developed for the service — a new batch of series are being prepped to be taken off in the next few days, sources have confirmed to IndieWire.

The most high-profile of these series is HBO’s “Westworld,” which was canceled this fall after falling ratings in Season 4. Other shows getting taken off include Victorian England sci-fi show “The Nevers” and rom-com anthology series “Love Life.” In a similar vein to the Lionsgate series “Minx,” the pulling of these shows effectively doubles as their cancellation announcement. According to sources, other less-high profile titles will be announced to leave the service in the next few days.

In addition, on December 9 Claudia Forestieri confirmed via Twitter that her series “Gordita Chronicles” would be taken off the platform soon.

Joss Whedon’s The Nevers is being pulled from HBO Max, TVLine has confirmed, essentially bringing the HBO sci-fi drama to an end after one season.

Only the first half of the show’s 12-episode order has aired, and Variety reports that the remaining six could eventually stream on another platform.

“The Nevers” has been canceled halfway through its first season by HBO. The Joss Whedon-created sci-fi drama will be pulled from streaming on HBO Max, along with the recently canceled HBO series “Westworld,” Variety has confirmed.

The Laura Donnelly and Ann Skelly-led “The Nevers,” which aired Part 1 of its first season in Spring 2021, was set to debut the back half of Season 1 next year on HBO. Sources close to the situation say it’s possible that the already finished batch of episodes — which were completed under new showrunner Philippa Goslett, who came on board following the exit of Whedon before the show even debuted — will air on another platform.

“Westworld” was canceled by HBO Nov. 4, just under three months after the series aired its Season 4 finale Aug. 14.

Exclusive: Two other original scripted series, Westworld and The Nevers, are coming off HBO Max. Unlike others that we have reported on, Lionsgate TV’s Minx and Love Life and Sony TV’s Gordita Chronicles — all comedies — Westworld and The Nevers are high-end Warner Bros. Discovery drama productions for HBO proper, and I hear they are likely to resurface on other company platforms.

Wbd CEO David Zaslav has spoken about his plan to enter the burgeoning Fast channel space, so Westworld and The Nevers would likely be offered in that form, I hear.

The removal of Westworld is a surprise as it remains one of the most recognizable HBO dramas of the last decade. The sci-fi series was recently canceled after four seasons so some of its fans may not have caught up on all episodes before it’s removed.

In most cases, an actor being cast as a character without a name doesn’t signal great things for the career. Nobody’s queuing up for an autograph from ‘woman in lift’ or ‘angry hot dog customer 2’. Jamie Dornan’s lead role in BBC crime thriller The Tourist bucks that trend. In the six-part series, Dornan plays “The Man”, a nameless (at least to begin with) Irishman who loses his memory when his car is forced off the road in the Australian desert. With barely a clue to go on, he has to find out who he is, what’s he doing there, and most importantly, why somebody’s trying to kill him.

Dornan is great in The Tourist – intense, funny, unpredictable and convincing at every stage of his character’s gradual discovery. It’s comfortably among his best performances so far, and one of the better received projects Dornan’s starred in.

The most exciting new actors, writers, directors, producers, and heads of department emerging across the UK and Ireland.

A student’s search for her birth mother has haunting results in this tale from the innovative Irish directing team of Christine Molloy and Joe Lawlor

“Who are you?” That’s a question that rings throughout the work of Dublin-born film-making duo Christine Molloy and Joe Lawlor. Through a series of mesmerising features, shorts and video projects, the pair have explored ideas of history and duality in ways that are simultaneously baffling and unsettling, playful yet profound. In Rose Plays Julie, which feels like a ghostly horror-tinged companion piece to 2008’s brilliant Helen, they once again address the concept of past and present coexisting through the medium of role-playing, conjuring a deceptively slick psychological drama (it’s their most accessible feature to date) while retaining the austere sense of distance and performance that has defined their intriguing oeuvre.

Infusing realistic settings with visual effects is something VFX supervisor Johnny Han is quite used to, being a craftsman who is just as comfortable working in the present and recent past as easily as science fiction and fantasy. HBO’s “The Nevers”, which operates in the latter categories, chronicling a Victorian-age community known as the Touched, who possess unique, manipulative powers for both good and evil, is a project he says is honestly not that different from serious works like 2020’s “One Night in Miami” and “Welcome to Chechnya,” films that used VFX to alter or remove imagery for importance and effect.

“It’s really about breaking things down into a singular, creative message in every shot,” the Emmy nominee Han says. “We often think of periods of the past as a simpler time, so a lot of the fun was boiling it down, even if the shot is one second long,...

Production will begin on Part 2 of the first season of HBO’s “The Nevers” on Tuesday in the U.K., TheWrap has learned exclusively.

Season 1A of the Joss Whedon-created sci-fi series, which stars Laura Donnelly and Ann Skelly, was shot last year, with a pandemic-forced shutdown hitting after Episode 6 was completed. New showrunner Philippa Goslett, who took over for Whedon in January following his exit from the show last fall, mapped out the back half of the first season of “The Nevers” with her writers’ room while Part 1 was premiering on HBO this spring.

Donnelly, Skelly and the rest of “The Nevers” cast are all returning for Part 2, which consists of six episodes that will pick up where the final episode of Part 1 left off when it aired on May 16.

“Our characters were sold to us as Butch and Sundance in corsets,” explains Ann Skelly of her role in HBO’s “The Nevers.” The series takes place in Victorian-era London and follows a large cast of characters who are granted mysterious new powers, or “turns” as they are referred to in the show. The actress enjoyed the mashup of science fiction and period drama for the human elements she had the opportunity to explore. Watch the exclusive video interview above.

Skelly plays the kind-hearted inventor Penance opposite Laura Donnelly’s steely Amalia. She notes that there was immediately a “natural ease” with one another. “I get such an openness from her,” Skelly says of her co-star. “There’s nothing precious about what she’s doing. She’ll very much want to facilitate any idea that you have.” That sense of collaboration served both women well, as their chemistry forms the...

Exclusive: Andrew Bernstein, a director and exec producer of HBO’s The Outsider, is heading to 19th Century London after boarding the premium cable network’s drama The Nevers.

Bernstein has joined the show as an executive producer and director.

It comes after the finale of part one of the first season of the series, which has aired six episodes and will return for another six next year. The show is currently in pre-production and is set to return to filming the second half of the season this summer.

In addition to his work on Jason Bateman-fronted The Outsider, which was based on Stephen King’s novel, he also...
