Now, for those who have already marathoned all the episodes available, it remains to be seen what to expect from the second season of the production.

Before talking about the sequel, however, it is important to remember the events of the first season, which was divided into two different parts. The first five episodes are an adaptation of Preludes and Nocturneswhere we followed the arrest of Dream (Tom Sturridge) for more than a century, in addition to his adventures to rebuild his kingdom, after regaining his ruby, the sand of dreams and his helmet.

The sixth episode of the production, then, is a kind of epilogue that introduces us to the immortal character Hob Gadlingplayed by Ferdinand Kingsley. Then the last four episodes are an adaptation of The Doll’s Housewhich presents us Rose Walker (Vanesu Samunyai) and the still-unnamed baby Lyta Hall (Razane Jammal), in addition to narrating the final confrontation of Dream with Corinthian (Boyd Holbrook).

Live still in the present day, she needs to be saved by morpheuswhich could even generate a hook for a third season of the series.

Already The Season of Mistsnarrates the revenge of Lucifer against Dream unexpectedly. The original volume still features the Gaiman of the nordic gods Thor, Loki and Odinand solves the plot of Anythingthe lover of morpheuswho is banished to Hell for 10,000 years.


Lucifer’s Plot

Still according to the ScreenRantit is speculated that the next season of sandmanshould have even more protagonism from Lucifer Morningstar (Gwendoline Christie). This is because, in The Season of Miststhe Devil decides to abandon Hell and leave the keys to his kingdom to morpheus — a narrative very similar to the plot of the series Luciferalso from Netflixstarring Tom Ellis.
