It turns out The sandman he almost had a Dark Knight Surprise for fans in the final of the series. Allan HeinbergThe co-creator and showrunner of the Netflix series recently revealed that a Batman cameo was “briefly” considered when the show reached its emotional end.
Anyone who is familiar Neil GaimanThe original comic race knows it The sandman It is rooted in the main DC universe, especially at the beginning. The comics presented apparitions from characters like Martian Manhunter, Mr. Miracle and even Batman, who shows up at the Morpheus funeral in Leaves.
While the adaptation of Netflix opted to keep the DC ties subtle, such as the scene with the action figures of DC Comics of Jed, the creative team has still played with the idea of bringing the meditabondo of Gotham in the final.
Heinberg shared:
“We talked,” Robert Pattinson wants to come to the funeral? “In short, we discussed it, but only briefly.”
It would have been a hellish moment. Even just a dark look among the participants in mourning would have sent fans to a frenzy. In the comic version, Batman is seen interacting with characters like Clark Kent in the wake.
Speaking of Superman, the recently published bonus episode, Death: the high cost of livingHe launches several notes to the man of steel, who seems to be Sexton’s favorite hero in the original comic.
Heinberg explained how he united and if he had something to do with the times of James GunnNew Superman Movie:
“I didn’t do it! I don’t even know if James Gunn looks at the show, but I hope so. No, it was that I tried to work in as many references to DC possible. It was one of those things in which Colin (Morgan) really wanted to show the unborncated side of Sexton, but the playful side of Sexton.
“That this is someone who actually, before this moment, has a lot of joy and very idealism and is trying to be out there and, as a climatic emergency journalist for the Guardian, he is trying to be a superhero. And he feels as if he were failing every time he turns.
“So, since we meet him in such a low point, we really wanted to show the public, it is not someone who is usually like this, this is a person with great ideals and great dreams and who wants to be a hero. And Superman is the cleanest.
“And I put Dc Comics things in everything I have written all the time I can remember. So it was a very natural thing to go to Superman.”
Even without a cameo of Batman, The sandman The ending has still offered a powerful closing chapter that seemed faithful to the material of origin as it traced its course.
What did you think of the final season? Have you captured all the DC references in the bonus episode?
