“If you didn’t like an episode of ‘Game of Thrones’, you probably won’t like any of them. With ‘Sandman’, it’s all about surprising you. It’s about reinventing yourself. It’s about taking you on a journey you’ve never taken.”said Gaiman in an interview with Empire.
In the adaptation of the digital platform, the first season of the series must adapt the initial arc of the comics, entitled “Preludes and Nocturnes” in the present day. In that arc, Dream (Sturridge), the ruler of the Dreaming, is imprisoned after a ritual that sought to arrest the Death (Kirby Howell-Baptiste), your sister.
He is trapped for 70 years, until he finally breaks free and begins a journey to reignite the Dreaming again and retrieve his three tools: a pouch full of sand, a ruby, and a helm.
Besides Sturridge the cast has Gwendoline Christie, David Thewlis, Kirby Howell-Baptiste, Jenna Coleman, Mason Alexander Park, Donna Preston, Razane Jammal, Kyo Ra, Sandra James Young, Stephen Fry, Joely Richardson, Niamh Walsh and Patton Oswalt. The actors Vivienne Acheampong, Charles Dance, Boyd Holbrook, Asim Chaudhry and Sanjeev Bhaskar complete the team.
According to EW, “The Sandman” will be released during the North American summer, that is, between the months of June and September.
