Netflix released The Sandman earlier this year and it was based on an original IP from DC Comics’ Vertigo imprint. Warner Bros. had been trying to get a Sandman project off the ground for several years but creator Neil Gaiman refused to be attached until it turned into a TV series for Netflix. After a long wait Netflix revealed that they had officially green-lit a second season of the series and Gaiman recently teased the second season and a new member of The Endless appearing at Netflix’s panel at CCXP Brazil. Warner Bros. TV produced the film and licensed it out to Netflix, and a new report reveals that Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav has a bit of a problem with the terms of their licensing deal with the streaming service. Zaslav went as far as instructing his teams to temporarily pause selling finished series to the streaming service, and fans feared that The Sandman season two could be affected. Gaiman took to Twitter to explain that season two won’t be troubled by the situation after a fan asked him to shed some light.
Sandman Season 2 has been commissioned by a Netflix and is real. Whatever behind the scenes wrangling and negotiating needed to happen to make this a reality has already occurred. https://t.co/F73ULZPgkk
