‘The Sandman’ features an all star cast: Tom Sturridge as Dream, Boyd Holbrook as the Corinthian, and Gwendoline Christie as Lucifer. The adaptation of Neil Gaiman’s comic book series features demons, a talking raven and Death herself.

- Dream. Gaiman’s The Sandman comic was structured around the concept of the Endless, which are a family of seven supernatural beings who have been alive since the beginning of time itself.
- Roderick Burgess. In the trailer, a villain played by Charles Dance can be seen performing the ritual that summons and imprisons Dream. This character is Roderick Burgess, the leader of a cult known as the Order.
- The Corinthian. Only two Sandman characters appear in the flesh, but a third can be heard in a voice-over. The person who says, “You’re gonna need all the help you can get” is Boyd Holbrook’s The Corinthian, a nightmare that Dream created.
- Gwendoline Christie as Lucifer. In Netflix's The Sandman show, Gwendoline Christie will play the ruler of Hell, Lucifer. Though this is the same character that Netflix’s Lucifer is centered on, it was decided for The Sandman to work with a different version of the DC Comics antihero, as opposed to the one Tom Ellis already plays.
This page discusses not only events which occur in The Sandman (1989–1994), but also some occurring in spinoffs of The Sandman, such as The Dreaming (1996–2001) and Lucifer (1999–2007), as well as characters from earlier stories which The Sandman was based on.
The series stars Tom Sturridge as the title character, with Boyd Holbrook, Vivienne Acheampong, and Patton Oswalt in supporting roles. Efforts to adapt The Sandman to film began in 1991 but floundered in development hell for many years.
