‘The Sandman’ Ending With Season 2 At Netflix

There will be no third season for The Sandman. Netflix made the announcement Friday on its Instagram account that the upcoming second season will be its last.

The 10-episode series follows Morpheus (Tom Sturridge), the personification of dreams and one of the seven Endless, is captured in an occult ritual in 1916. After being held captive for 106 years, Dream (also Sturridge) escapes and sets out to restore order to his realm, the Dreaming.

Other series stars include Boyd Holbrook as Corinthian, Vivienne Acheampong as Lucienne, Patton Oswalt as the voice of Matthew the Raven, David Thewlis as John Dee, Gwendoline Christie as Lucifer Morningstar, Jenna Coleman as Johanna Constantine, and Kirby Howell-Baptiste as Death, among others.

Allan Heinberg executive produces alongside Gaiman and David S. Goyer. Gaiman, Goyer and Heinberg are also co-writers on the project.
