Neil Gaiman says Sandman on Netflix differs from Game of Thrones as each episode is wildly different from the other one and is

Sandman on Netflix Will Make Jump From One Genre to Other With Every Installment, Says Writer-Producer Neil Gaiman

Poetry and dreaming go hand in hand. And a dream personified to oversee and
influence all the other dreams, stories, and inspiration would be a rather
intriguing sight to witness. Well, Neil Gaiman has done the work with sheer
perfection. He penned a comic series that ruled the world of graphic fiction in
the late 1900s. The Sandman, so broad in its scope and metaphysical in its
nature, is almost impossible to resist. And to our surprise, Netflix has now
adapted this comic series, setting yet another milestone in the streaming world.
No doubt as to why it is the most awaited series of the year.

The Sandman is set to land on Netflix later this year, leaping around space and
time. The series will follow Dream, who generally appears as a shaggy, pale,
mopey guy but can transform into literally anything. And Gaiman has joined the
team to produce this fantasy and take our breath away. Recently, Gaiman talked
about his vision and mission in an interview with Empire, and it was a truly
interesting talk. Hence, with a little ado, let’s see what Neil Gaiman got to
say about this shape-shifting fantasy drama.


GAIMAN WANTS SANDMAN ON NETFLIX TO BE IMPOSSIBLE TO PIN DOWN

Writer-producer, Neil Gaiman, recently told Empire Magazine
[https://www.empireonline.com/tv/news/netflix-sandman-series-all-about-surprising-you-neil-gaiman-exclusive/]
how he wants each of the episodes of The Sandman on Netflix to be extremely
verifying from each other. Seems like he is in the mood to take viewers by
surprise with every new episode as they change the course with every
installment.

Opening up about this genre-gamboling fantasy epic, Gaiman said, “You watch
Episode 1 and think, ‘Oh, I get this thing: it’s like “Downton Abbey,” but with
magic. Then you’ll be wondering, ‘What the hell is this?’ by Episode 2, when
you’re meeting Gregory the Gargoyle in The Dreaming. Episode 5 is about as dark
and traumatic as anything is ever gonna get, then you’ve got Episode 6, which is
probably the most feel-good of all the episodes.”

Notably, he also teased how this show will defer from all the other fantasies
out there, saying it won’t hold on to a monogamous premise like The Game of
Thrones did. He said, “With ‘Sandman,’ it’s all about surprising you. It’s all
about reinventing itself. It’s all about taking you on a journey you’ve not been
on before.”
