During Geeked Week, Netflix revealed the first trailer and release date for The Sandman, the highly-anticipated live-action series adaptation of Neil Gaiman's comic book magnum opus. The series stars Tom Sturridge as Morpheus, or Dream, one of seven eternal entities who control crucial aspects of existence.
The trailer follows a comic accurate presentation of Dream’s journey. The first season of The Sandman will cover the story of The Sandman, Volume 1: Preludes & Nocturnes, a collection of comic book issues that follows Dream’s capture by a cult in the early 1900s and his subsequent release a century later. The trailer already shows us the moment where Dream is captured, and his escape from his prison many decades later.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Once Morpheus goes back to the Nightmare Realm, he finds out his absence had a huge impact on human’s ability to dream and wonder about better times. In the trailer, one of Dream’s servants, the Librarian tells Morpheus that his castle and the Nightmare Realm are not what he used to remember. The trailer shows the decay that covered the Nightmare Realm, and teases how Dream will have to recover his power and rebuild his kingdom.
