Despite the positive update from writer and showrunner Allan Heinberg, The Sandman will most likely not return for a third season on Netflix. Seeing the show’s acclaim and popularity, it is hard to see why The Sandman Season 3 won’t happen,

The Sandman season 2 delivers a conclusive, satisfying end to the story. It doesn’t leave behind a trail of loose ends, but it does leave a few things to the imagination. The big twist in the end is that Morpheus loses his life. After putting his son, Orpheus, out of his misery in the Volume 1 finale, he spilled family blood.

Night falls on Netflix’s The Sandman as Season 2 comes to an end, and with it, at least for the foreseeable future, the live-action version of the Sandman himself. In the finale, “A Tale of Graceful Ends,” Dream ( Tom Sturridge) chooses to end his life when he decides to end his son’s endless suffering.

However, the story of Dream of the Endless, and all the other characters we've met along the show's 22 episodes to date, has essentially concluded as of this morning. But it shouldn't be the end for two characters in particular: Johanna Constantine (Jenna Coleman) and the Corinthian (Boyd Holbrook).

"I hope interest in the show will outlive whatever impact the allegations are having on the viewing public," Allan Heinberg says when discussing 'Sandman' comics creator Neil Gaiman's downfall and his desires to "go on writing 'Sandman' forever

The Sandman kept one massive surprise for the very end. The back half of season 2 arrives on Netflix today, and episode 10, the penultimate episode of the entire drama series, featured the arrival of a previously unannounced piece of casting.
