It's been a while since we've had any updates on Netflix's highly-anticipated adaptation of Neil Gaiman's The Sandman, but thanks to the latest issue of Empire Magazine, we finally have a new official still from the upcoming series.
The image gives us another look at Tom Sturridge as Morpheus, as well as our first glimpse of Vivienne Acheampong (The Witches) as The Dreaming's loyal custodian, Lucienne (Lucien in the comics). The shot appears to be taken from a scene which sees the Dream King return to his realm after being held prisoner for over a century, only to find The Dreaming is a state of disrepair.
A premiere date has yet to be announced, but there are whispers that a full trailer could be with us soon, so stay tuned!
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."
