Netflix has resumed production on Season 2 of “The Sandman” in London after it was initially interrupted by the Hollywood strikes.
The news comes on the 35th anniversary of the DC comic book series on which the show is based. Neil Gaiman, who wrote the comics and developed the TV series, celebrated the occasion with a letter to fans promising that “good things are coming.” Netflix also shared a new photo that shows Tom Sturridge, who plays Dream, and Mason Alexander Park, who plays Desire, on set.
Season 1 of “The Sandman” premiered in August of 2022 with a surprise 11th episode arriving on Netflix a week later. The series was generally well received, with Variety‘s review saying that “the show works hard to set itself apart from those Netflix attempts at reanimating beloved properties that instead flattened them out.”

“The Sandman” is returning to Netflix. The streaming platform has officially renewed the Neil Gaiman series based on the DC Comics universe, expanding the franchise with new episodes based on other stories from the graphic novels.
Leading up to Wednesday’s evening announcement, there was rampant speculation among Netflix subscribers about whether “The Sandman” would be renewed or was even canceled, despite its success, even leading Gaiman to dispute a tweet from a fan account online. And while Netflix has renewed “The Sandman,” it’s not exactly coming back for a Season 2, as the show will focus on other aspects of the conflict between Dream and the forces of Hell, exploring the many challenges facing the universe in the wake of Morpheus’ century-long absence. The number of episodes and all plot specifics have been kept under wraps to this point.

As a newcomer to Neil Gaiman’s seminal comic book series “The Sandman”, I came to Netflix’s adaptation with an open mind and curious eye. Knowing this 1989 title had spawned onscreen spinoffs of “Sandman” characters — “Lucifer,” “Constantine,” etcetera — but never one of its own, it was hard not to wonder what about it might have made a live-action version so hard that it never happened until now. As I went back and forth between the TV show and the original volumes, though, the difficulty that any production would have in tackling its scope became clearer — and made Netflix’s result more impressive, too.
As adapted by Gaiman, Allan Heinberg (“Wonder Woman”), and David S. Goyer, TV’s “The Sandman” errs toward a literal translation of the comics as often as possible. For as complex as the series’ mythology becomes, the show finds a way to introduce new fans without completely confusing them.

“The Sandman” series, adapted from Neil Gaiman’s 1989 comic series — co-created by Sam Keith and Mike Dringenberg — will creep into consciousness in the first week of August. The ten-episode series follows the story of The Dream King Morpheus, a powerful being aiming to correct past mistakes he made, both cosmically and more minutely.
Names behind the television interpretation of the DC comic include Allan Heinberg as showrunner, executive producer and writer, as well as David S. Goyer and Neil Gaiman as executive producers and writers. Many minds have combined to produce a series that walks between dream and waking worlds.
Fans of the comic, Gaiman and/or the sprawling ensemble cast may be wondering how to watch the haunting story, and the answers are pretty simple.

Spoilers for "The Sandman" comics follow.
What do your nightmares look like? Dreams are strange, often abstract things, but the Corinthian is definitely the stuff nightmares are made of. While the world of "The Sandman" is populated by a host of unforgettable characters, he is probably the most terrifying. This creature looks human, but behind his sunglasses are two rows of teeth where each of his eyes should be. And if that wasn't enough, the Corinthian's viciousness is unmatched. He was created by Neil Gaiman and Mike Dringenberg, making his first appearance in "The Sandman" #10 in 1989 during "The Doll's House" arc.

When The Sandman was initially published in 1989, Neil Gaiman‘s horror-fantasy comic series was praised as a groundbreaking piece of art, aided by the surreal and often unnerving illustrations by Sam Kieth, Mike Dringenberg, Jill Thompson, Shawn McManus, Marc Hempel, and Michael Zulli. The story of the anthropomorphic personification of Dream as he returns to his realm after a decades-long […]

Netflix dropped the trailer for the first half of Season 5 of “Lucifer” on Monday, revealing that Lucifer (Tom Ellis) will be returning from hell much sooner than you probably anticipated. Oh, wait, that’s because it’s not actually Lucifer — it’s his evil twin, Michael.
In the trailer for Season 5A, which you can watch via the video above, Chloe (Lauren German) is trying desperately to move on with her life after Lucifer’s decision to return to run his fiery kingdom at the end of Season 4. She has been focusing on work and hanging with Maz (Lesley-Ann Brandt) in hopes of healing — and then Lucifer pops right back up from the depths of hell. Except, um, we soon find out that who we think is Lucifer is his twin — and a rather evil one at that — Michael.
Here’s the official description for the first half of “Lucifer” Season 5, which launches Aug.

“Lucifer” will live on, with Netflix announcing that they have renewed the show for a sixth and final season. The announcement was made on social media Tuesday morning.
This now marks the second time the show has been renewed for a “final” season at Netflix. After airing on Fox for three years before being canceled, Netflix revived it for a fourth season in 2018. It was announced last year that Season 5 would be the last. The show made a tongue-in-cheek reference to its surprising longevity, saying Season 6 will be the “Final final” season in making the announcement. No episode count was announced with the renewal. The longest season to date was Season 3 on Fox, which was 26 episodes.
“Lucifer” centers on Tom Ellis as the titular fallen angel and the Lord of Hell, who works with the LAPD to take down Earth’s criminals. The series also stars Lauren German, Kevin Alejandro,...

Netflix has saved “Lucifer” once again. The streaming service has renewed the Tom Ellis-led drama for a sixth season and final season after previously announcing the show’s upcoming fifth season, which premieres this August, would be its final.
The announcement was made via a tweet from the show’s official account Tuesday morning: “the devil made us do it. #lucifer will return for a sixth and final season. like, Final final.”
Netflix resurrected “Lucifer” back in June 2018, picking the series up for a fourth season after it had been canceled by Fox. Season 4 debuted on the streaming service almost a year later, in May 2019, and one month after the launch, Netflix renewed “Lucifer” for a 16-episode fifth and final season set to debut in 2020.

Netflix has finally set the premiere date for the first half of Season 5 of “Lucifer” with an announcement that is missing any mention of this being the show’s final season.

Though the teaser doesn’t show any footage from the new batch of episodes, Netflix has offered up this description: “Lucifer (Ellis), bored and unhappy as the Lord of Hell, resigns his throne and abandons his kingdom for the gorgeous, shimmering insanity of Los Angeles, where he gets his kicks helping the LAPD…and the savvy detective Chloe Decker (Lauren German) in particular.

A sixth season of Lucifer is moving closer to reality after star Tom Ellis has closed a deal to return as the title character.
Netflix earlier this year started talks with series producer Warner Bros. TV about another installment of the comic book drama beyond the upcoming fifth season, which had been billed as a final installment. Executive producers Ildy Modrovich and Joe Henderson, who have been steering the show, quickly closed new deals for another season.
It took lengthy, difficult negotiations with Ellis but he also recently signed on to return. The rest of the cast are also on board, sources said. With all key pieces in place, Netflix is expected to proceed with the pickup.

The upcoming fifth season of Lucifer may not be as final as it seemed.
Netflix is in talks with series producer Warner Bros. TV about another installment of the comic book drama, sources have confirmed to Deadline. I hear executive producers Ildy Modrovich and Joe Henderson, who have been steering the show, would need to make a new deal but would like to do another season.
If all comes together, I hear the plan is for Lucifer to go back into production in September. Star Tom Ellis and other Lucifer cast members already have been approached for broadcast pilots and new series on various platforms, so Netflix and Wbtv would need to step up their efforts to secure the actors. But they are available, and sources close to the situation are optimistic that a renewal would happen.

The upcoming Netflix live-action TV series "Sandman", adapting DC Comic's 1998, 75-issue Vertigo title, created by Neil Gaiman, Sam Kieth and Mike Dringenberg, will be co-written by Gaiman, depicting the 'Dream of the Endless', who rules over the world of dreams:

The planned adaption of Mervyn Peake’s “Gormenghast” book series has found a home at Showtime.
The premium cabler has given the project a script-to-series order and will co-produce along with Fremantle, with a writers room set to be opened soon. Fremantle announced last year that they were developing a series based on the books.
The books center on the inhabitants of the city-sized castle Gormenghast. Its denizens are only vaguely aware of how or why the castle came to be, but over the course of the series the powers that have held the castle in place are challenged and the ensuing disruptions reveal its fantastical secrets.
Toby Whithouse will serve as executive producer and showrunner. Neil Gaiman, Akiva Goldsman, Dante Di Loreto, Oliver Jones, Barry Spikings, and David Stern will also executive produce.
Whithouse previously created the BBC series “Being Human,” with an American version airing on Syfy in the U.

The addition was announced Friday on the official NetflixUS Twitter account. The move to add additional episodes might have come from impassioned fan support, the same base that got the former Fox show moved to Netflix.
Last month, Lucifer executive producer Ildy Modrovich tried to break the news gently to fans that their beloved TV show is entering its final season.
In a Twitter post, Modrovich tried to head off efforts by fans who already were contemplating lobbying for a sixth season of the show. Netflix picked up a fourth and fifth season of the comic book drama after it was canceled by Fox after three seasons, in part because of the huge outpouring of support from fans of the series.

The streaming service announced last month that it would end the Tom Ellis-led drama with a 10-episode fifth and final season to launch in 2020. No premiere date has been given for what is now a 16-episode Season 5.
“Lucifer” Season 4 dropped May 8 on Netflix, close to a year after the streamer revived the show following its cancellation at Fox. The 10-episode fourth season ended with one hell of a cliffhanger, which Ellis broke down for TheWrap here.

On the heels of the Season 4 debut of Lucifer, Netflix has picked up a fifth season of the comic book drama, which will be its last.

Lucifer started on Fox, which canceled it after three seasons. Netflix rescued the series, extending its run by two seasons.

The best is yet to come!!”
Buoyed by strong fan support, which made Lucifer the No.1 trending topic...

“Lucifer” is coming to an end — again.
Variety has confirmed that the series has been renewed for a fifth and final season at Netflix. The series previously aired on Fox for three seasons before Netflix revived it for a fourth. The fourth season debuted on the streaming service in early May.
“We’re thrilled that ‘Lucifer’ fans around the world have embraced this series on Netflix, and we can’t wait to give them the big finish they’ve all been waiting for,” a Netflix spokesperson said in a statement.
“Lucifer” centers on Tom Ellis as the titular fallen angel and the Lord of Hell, who works with the Lapd to take down Earth’s criminals. The series also stars Lauren German, Kevin Alejandro, D.B. Woodside, Lesley-Ann Brandt, Scarlett Estevez, and Rachael Harris.
“Lucifer” is produced by Warner Bros. Television in association with Jerry Bruckheimer Television, based on the characters created by Neil Gaiman,...

Deckstar fans might be taken aback by the Season 4 trailer for “Lucifer,” which reveals Chloe (Lauren German) is seemingly Ok after seeing Lucifer’s (Tom Ellis) true face — but that doesn’t mean she can accept him for who he truly is. You know who can, though? His “first love” Eve (Inbar Lavi). That’s right, Eve, of Adam and Eve.
The one-minute, 56-second trailer, released by Netflix on Thursday, we see the Detective return from a trip after discovering Lucifer actually is the Devil himself at the end of Season 3. And because she just wants to get back to work, Lucifer decides she’s clearly in denial. However, it starts to become clear — very quickly — something else is going on with Chloe, and she may not be ready for all this heaven and hell business after all. Enter: Eve.

The fourth season of “Lucifer” debuts next month, and whether you are a Lucifan who just needs a quick series-refresher or someone who has literally no idea what the Tom Ellis-led drama is about, Netflix has you covered with a crash course on Seasons 1-3.
Or, more specifically, the Devil himself does. In a promo released by the streaming service Friday, Lucifer (Ellis) recaps the first three seasons of the former Fox series ahead of the show’s Season 4 launch on its new platform on May 8.
“You know, Lucifer used to be God’s favorite Angel. Those were the days. Oh, where to start. Well, I’m the Devil,” Lucifer says, as he pours himself a drink before launching into his three-season recap, which you can view below.

So much smiling is going on in our first look at “Lucifer” Season 4, but we can’t yet tell if any of it is good.
In new photos released from the former-Fox drama’s upcoming fourth season of Netflix on Thursday, which you can view below, Lucifer (Tom Ellis) is hanging with two very different ladies: Eve (Inbar Lavi) and Chloe (Lauren German). And while Chloe appears to be smiling at Lucifer in a forgiving way that is going to tug at Team Deckstar fans’ heartstrings in the most sinful way possible, Eve’s smirky intro is equally entertaining.
Here’s the description for Season 4: “Reeling from the aftermath of Chloe seeing his devil face, Lucifer faces a new challenge: Eve, the original sinner herself, is back. Does she want revenge for when he tempted her out of Eden oh so many years ago … or something else entirely?...

Netflix has set May 8 (exactly 666 hours from now) for the Season 4 premiere of Lucifer. The date was revealed in a provocative video tease (watch above) featuring Tom Ellis’ devil emerging from a swimming pool.
The streaming internet network picked up the Warner Bros. TV-produced Lucifer for the upcoming fourth season after it was cancelled by Fox and following a big #SaveLucifer campaign that dominated the social media conversation for more than a month.
Season 3 ended on a cliffhanger with Detective Chloe Decker (Lauren German) finally realizing that her partner is indeed Lucifer after seeing his devil face for the first time.
Season 4 will pick up with Lucifer still reeling from Chloe’s discovery and facing a new challenge — Eve (Inbar Lavi). Stay tuned for that.

The resurrected series Lucifer will be bringing along a new angel as it leaps over to Netflix: Vinessa Vidotto has been added to Season 4’s ensemble in the recurring role of Remiel.
The role description calls Remiel a “classic little-sister” character who admires her eldest brother, the mighty Amenadiel (D.B. Woodside), but also feels under-appreciated or overshadowed while struggling to match his towering standards. Remiel idolizes her big brother but dealing with the self-righteous alpha-dog of angels isn’t always easy.
Lucifer is based on characters from The Sandman series and its spinoff, Lucifer, both milestone works published by DC Comics under the Vertigo Imprint. The comics were the work of Neil Gaiman, Sam Kieth and Mike Dringenberg. In those source material comics, Remiel is portrayed quite differently — the angel is a blond male with the exasperation of a sour bureaucrat — and appears only a handful of times the over years.
