Season 2 of The Sandman on Netflix was always going to be its last
Unlike the graphic novels the show is based on – which span ten volumes – according to showrunner Allan Heinberg, they always knew the Netflix adaptation would “exclusively” focus on Dream’s story.
He explained: “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.
“We are extremely grateful to Netflix for bringing the team back together and giving us the time and resources to make a faithful adaptation in a way that we hope will surprise and delight the comics’ loyal readers as well as fans of our show.”
The statement appears to dispute claims that The Sandman was dropped after several allegations of sexual misconduct were made against author Neil Gaiman. The writer has denied any wrongdoing.
