I have a fantastic featurette here for you to watch today for the Netflix series adaptation of Neil Gaiman’S The man of sand. This promotion offers some interesting insights into The World of The Endless. Gaiman explains the story behind The Sandman and the divine brothers of the titular character, The Endless. Gaiman and his creative team also share how they approached adapting this rich and complex world for the show. It also offers a good amount of new footage.
In the series: “There is another world that awaits us all when we close our eyes and sleep – a place called Dreaming, where The Sandman, Master of Dreams (Tom Sturridge), shapes all our deepest fears and fantasies. But when Dream is unexpectedly captured and held captive for a century, his absence sets off a series of events that will forever change both the dream world and the waking world. To restore order, Dream must travel across different worlds and timelines to repair the mistakes he made during his vast existence, revisiting old friends and enemies and meeting new entities, both cosmic and human, along the way.
The show is described as “a rich, character-driven blend of myth and dark fantasy woven over the course of ten epic chapters following Dream’s many adventures.” It looks like it’s going to be an incredible and visually stunning series!
The series was developed and produced by showrunner Gaiman Allan Heinberg (Wonder Woman, Grey’s Anatomy), And David S. Goyer (Batman Begins, The Dark Knight, Terminator: Dark Destiny, Foundation). One thing Gaiman has prepared fans for is that while the essence of the comic is present in the upcoming series adaptation, this show will be a thing unto itself.
The series will premiere on Netflix on August 5, 2022.
