Netflix’s Neil Gaiman Series ‘The Sandman’ to End After Season 2

Netflix has announced that 'The Sandman,' its series based on the graphic novels by Neil Gaiman, will conclude with its upcoming second season.

While other streaming services, comic book publishers, and theater groups have severed ties with the author, who is accused by multiple women of sexual misconduct, Season 2 of The Sandman remained in production following its renewal back in November 2022, over a year and a half before the allegations against Gaiman first surfaced. “We are extremely grateful to Netflix for bringing the team all back together and giving us the time and resources to make a faithful adaptation in a way that we hope will surprise and delight the comics’ loyal readers as well as fans of our show.” Variety confirmed The Sandman ’s original plans to conclude with Season 2 even prior to the Gaiman allegations, citing high production costs and casting decisions that suggested that producers were jumping to the final issues of the graphic novel.
