Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman Will End With Second Season

According to Variety, the second season of “The Sandman” has been announced as its final installment. This decision comes after sexual-assault allegations against Neil Gaiman, who is the creator of the classic comic series that the TV show is based on. The first season premiered in August 2022, and Netflix renewed the show for another season in November of the same year. Showrunner Allan Heinberg told Variety that the series has always been about Dream’s story, and when they looked at the remaining material from the comics in 2022, they realized there was only enough story for one more season. They are grateful to Netflix for giving them the chance to make a faithful adaptation of the comics, hoping it will delight both long-time readers and fans of the show.

Neil Gaiman has faced accusations of assault by nine individuals, ranging from his former nanny to younger fans, as detailed in a recent article for The New Yorker. In response, Gaiman denied these allegations, stating that some incidents never occurred at all, while others have been significantly exaggerated and no longer resemble the truth. Despite this controversy, the second season of the Sandman series is still set to premiere as scheduled in 2025.
