THE SANDMAN

NETFLIX | 2022 | FANTASY | SEASON 1 | BINGE FROM FRI 5 AUG

Modern myth and dark fantasy based on author Neil Gaiman’s (writer of TV fantasy series American Gods) Sandman graphic novel series (1989-1996). The story follows people and places affected by Morpheus The Dream King (Tom Sturridge) as he sets about mending the cosmic mistakes he’s made and the nightmares he’s created, like serial killer The Corinthian (Boyd Holbrook). We also see Dream through his interaction with his siblings – especially Death (Kirby Howell-Baptiste), Desire (Mason Alexander Park) and Despair (Donna Preston) – who are known as The Endless.
