Will Netflix cancel the second season of “The Sandman”?

On his Twitter account, Neil Gaiman clarified to fans why Netflix has not yet approved the second season of ‘The Sandman’: “It’s a very expensive show. And for Netflix to release the money to allow us to do another season, we need to do it incredibly well. So yeah, we’ve been the best show in the world for the past two weeks. It may not be enough yet “.

The first season of “The Sandman” was the most viewed series in Netflix’s catalog of around 80 countries around the world during the two weeks following its release. However, as the creator himself says, perhaps this is not “enough” to give the green light to its development.
