A specific Sandman character seems like a prime candidate for their own spin-off on Netflix, and even Neil Gaiman is on board.
Elsewhere in the DC Universe, Matt Ryan has been playing John Constantine for years now, first in his own show, then in the wider Arrowverse, including a long stint on Legends of Tomorrow. He will even survive the pending death of the Arrowverse, as he’s voicing Constantine in Harley Quinn season 3.
It remains somewhat murky if a Johanna Constantine spin-off would be possible with whatever deal Netflix has with WB to make Sandman in the first place. Obviously Sandman hasn’t even been renewed for season 2 yet, so this feels like it might be getting a bit ahead of things, but if Netflixwant to build on what appears to be a successful, well-liked hit, maybe expanding the “Sandman Universe” is something they’re going to pursue.
I am wondering if Netflix’s desire to invest heavily in Sandman may be tempered by the fact that thisa WB production, as Netflix has generally shied away from big projects it does not fully own. That said, a hit is a hit, and they may not want to squander that, even if this is something that’s technically on loan from WB and DC. We’ll see what that means for season 2 and any potential spin-offs to come. For now, we’ll just wait and see how season 1 does over the course of its first month.
