‘The Sandman’ season 2 — everything we know so far

“The Sandman” season 2 is currently in production. Critics and audiences loved the first season and we thought it was a breath of fresh air compared to some of the recent comic book fare from Marvel and DC. So it wasn’t a surprise when Netflix renewed the hit show for a second season.

Filming started in the U.K. back in February of this year for the next batch of episodes, which may be released as volumes rather than seasons (more on that later). There have also been more casting announcements, with some notable stars from hit shows like “Game of Thrones” and “The Diplomat”. Unfortunately though, “Dead Boy Detectives” has been canceled, meaning it’s unlikely these characters will have any cameos in season 2.

So, that means you can expect more of Dream, Death and Lucifer on your TV screen in the not-too-distant future. In this guide we lay out what — and who — to expect, and when to expect one of the best Netflix shows to return (even though there haven’t been any proper updates in a long time).
