Will There Be Netflix’s The Sandman Season 2?
To date, there is still no renewal status for Netflix’s The Sandman and whether it will be having a second season still remains a question. Having a renewal could come from various factors such as the audience’s viewership and reception on the show, the series’ performance, and the critics’ reviews. The Sandman ended with a cliffhanger and should it be renewed, there are still a lot of material to base on given that the comics of Neil Gaiman has ten volumes. It could even lead to a spinoff series or a prequel of the show since only “Preludes and Nocturnes” and “The Doll’s House” have been covered so far. From the comics of Neil Gaiman, The Sandman follows the god of dreams, Dream of the Endless, which transcends the boundaries of human comprehension. It circles around the stories of how Morpheus, the Dream King, is captured and he learns that change is inevitable.
