Still - for now - things seem to be going as scheduled. That would likely delay the release of more Sandman episodes. That means if any additional writing needs to be done, production will likely halt until the strike ends. According to Collider, Neil Gaiman has said that he will not use non-Union writers for the show. However, the Writer's Guild of America strike has thrown an unexpected wrinkle in things (disclosure: I am a member of the WGA). That would reasonably give Netflix enough time to have a batch of episodes ready for August 2024, so there's a lot already out there to give credence to this timeline. This reported rumor states that Netflix will film one block of episodes from June 2023 to October 2023 and then a second block of episodes from January 2024 to April 2024. Summer 2024 would then be in reach for the comic book adaptation, with a possible release date of August 2024 - exactly two years after season one - still on the table.Ī recent report from Redanian Intelligence seemingly confirms this theory, but take it with a grain of salt. Instead, we may get a partial batch of five to six episodes if Netflix transitions to a five to six-episode "Volume" style release schedule going forward. It's more likely that we do not get a full season's worth of episodes at once. So a June 2023 start date for filming still seems well on track. In a recent Tumblr post, the Sandman co-creator responded to a fan stating that scripts for season two are written and casting has commenced for the first episode. That could push a release as far out as April 2025, but that feels far too long for Netflix to wait for new episodes. Comments from The Corinthian actor Boyd Holbrook also hint at a Summer 2023 film start and a leak from What's on Netflix tips filming to start in June 2023, specifically. They say that filming should begin in the summer of 2023. "Everything’s on the table when it comes to ‘Sandman.’ It’s an innovative show.” So don't be surprised if future episodes of The Sandman don't follow a traditional full-season binge model.Īctor Mason Alexander Park recently confirmed in an interview at Fan Expo San Francisco that Netflix is definitely not referring to the next batch of episodes as "Season two" - but there is good news. and Canada scripted TV Peter Friedlander said Netflix is still considering how to batch episodes of the streaming TV show. ![]() In a recent interview with Variety Netflix's head of U.S. Speaking of Netflix, it still hasn't committed to a release schedule for The Sandman going forward, even though they say they are very much committed to more episodes. ![]() While there probably isn’t much that can be done to reduce the filming time other than shooting few episodes, cutting down on production time for season two could be possible if they've streamlined the process based on what they learned in season one or if Netflix put them on a deadline. We're hopeful it won’t take quite that long.
