Fans of The Sandman can breathe easy knowing their favorite show won't be gone at the snap of a finger. Six weeks after it was announced that Netflix finally renewed the fan-favorite for a second season, worrying information started circulating.
addressed those concerns by responding to a worried Tumblr user who messaged him about the future of the show. Fans were understandably worried after Netflix recently decided to reverse its decision and cancel a few shows that were renewed.
While Gaiman acknowledged that nothing is ever certain, he tried to reassure fans that The Sandman 2 won't meet the same fate as the animated series Inside Job. Season 2 of the acclaimed television adaptation from his comic book series will indeed be coming to the small screens unless something cataclysmic happens.
This certainly came close to becoming a reality given the tensions between Netflix and Warner Bros. Discovery. With reports suggesting that WBD CEO David Zaslav isn't a fan of Netflix's payment method for production studios stretched out over the course of 18-24 months, it seemed likely that Sandman2 would be dead in its tracks. And with how long it took Netflix to green light the production of Season 2, or the extra episodes as they like to call it, it's no wonder fans are spooked.
