- National Treasure: Edge of History debuted on Disney+ earlier this week.
- But the threequel has yet to be released despite all this time.
- Back in 2007, “Book of Secrets” announced a third movie.
The Sandman, a Netflix series starring Tom Sturridge. Although the streaming series incorporates elements from previous books, there is still more of the fantasy world to adapt and explore and stars Kirby Howell-Baptiste as Death and Vivienne Acheampong as Lucienne are ready to get started.
The Sandman, the Dream Controller, and an imprisoned Dream (played by Sturridge) were all presented to viewers in the first season. The head librarian of Acheampong’s library, Lucienne, and Dream’s siblings, Howell-Death, and Baptiste were among the numerous people we encountered throughout the season as Dream traveled through time and space to repair the harm that had been caused by his capture. Vanesa Samunyai, Patton Oswalt, Gwendoline Christie, Jenna Coleman, and other actors are also featured in the series.
The Sandman’s Howell-Baptiste and Acheampong sat down in an interview to talk about the highly anticipated season after the show was just renewed for Season 2, or rather, a continuation. In their interview, they reveal that they waited just as long as fans did for the renewal and that they are eager to learn more about Gaiman’s world. They talk about a deleted scene from CCXP and why it isn’t labeled “Season 2,” and Howell-Baptiste mentions Death joining the rest of the Sandman clan.
KIRBY HOWELL-BAPTISTE: “There are two different worlds. There are the fans who received us so well and were so excited, and then there’s the side of it that you are waiting to see what the other side, the business side, and how that works. So for us, we’re so excited. For me, I would say that the show was received so well. It felt like we almost owed it to our audiences to bring them more because, as you know, there’s so much to The Sandman. So there’s so much more to explore”
HOWELL-BAPTISTE: “Yeah. Have people asked about it? They have. I have no idea where the stories go. We have no idea where stories go next season.”
HOWELL-BAPTISTE: “But I feel like whatever we do, it’s the same team. It’s Neil [Gaiman], it’s Allan [Heinberg]. We’re going to have solid stories. We’re going to explore these characters more”
ACHEAMPONG: “Still very faithful to the comics”
HOWELL-BAPTISTE: “Yeah. Just for us getting deeper and deeper”
ACHEAMPONG: “We’re aware because I think that it’s such a unique thing anyway, Sandman. So to call it Season 2, I think that’s not what it is because there are just more stories to tell. As Kirby said, we literally don’t know how this is going to be”
HOWELL-BAPTISTE: “Well, I would say, I think part of the hesitance probably to call it Season 2 is that one of the things about Sandman, and one of the things about Neil, is Neil loves his fans and I think there is the understanding that we told some of the stories and there’s more to tell. So it’s much more to it. And if you are a fan of comic books, you know how many stories. It’s just that once you put that into a TV format, it’s broken up”
