The live-action series is being written by Gaiman (American Gods) and Allan Heinberg (Wonder WomanGrey’s Anatomy), who will also serve as showrunner. David S. Goyer (Batman BeginsFoundation) will executive produce the drama from Warner Bros. Television. Last year, Gaiman has also revealed that they are also already planning for a potential second season.

Sandman, which launched DC Comics’ Vertigo imprint, ran for 75 issues beginning in 1989. Gaiman’s worlds-within-worlds weaved an episodic anthology, focusing on the allegorical character of Dream and his brothers and sisters, known as the Endless (Death, Desire, Despair, Delirium, Destruction, and Destiny).
