So far, we've only seen a brief teaser promo for The Sandman, and fans of Neil Gaiman's seminal DC Comics series have been eagerly awaiting a look at some more footage from Netflix's upcoming adaptation.
We might be waiting a little longer (okay, quite a bit longer) for that trailer, but in the meantime, EW has shared a new official still featuring Tom Sturridge as the titular Dream Lord.
We don't have any context for the image, but since Morpheus is holding his signature helm (crafted from the skull and spine of a god, doncha know), there's a chance he's just reclaimed it from a certain demon in Hell.
A premiere date has yet to be announced, but there are whispers that a full trailer could debut during Geeked Week on June 6.
The Sandman also stars Kirby Howell-Baptiste as Death, Game of Thrones alum Gwendoline Christie as Lucifer, Logan actor Boyd Holbrook as sadistic escaped nightmare The Corinthian, Charles Dance (Game of Thrones) as black magician Roderick Burgess, and Asim Chaudhry (Black Mirror) and Sanjeeve Bhaskar (Yesterday) as Abel and Cain, respectively.
We recently learned that Desire and Despair will be played by Mason Alexander Park and Donna Preston, respectively, while Joely Richardson will play Ethel Cripps, and David Thewlis will take on the role of her son John Dee, aka the deranged Dr. Destiny. Jenna Coleman will play John Constantine's great-great-great grandmother, Lady Johanna Constantine.
The 11-episode first season of The Sandman is expected to adapt the first arc of the Vertigo comics series, "Preludes and Nocturnes."
