Overview

  • Volume 1 will premiere with six episodes on July 3 at 12am PT/3am ET, followed by five episodes on July 24 and a bonus installment on July 31.
  • Showrunners David S. Goyer and Allan Heinberg confirm the two-season arc was planned in 2022 for creative alignment and was not influenced by 2024 allegations against Neil Gaiman.
  • Tom Sturridge returns as Dream/Morpheus weeks after Season 1’s climax, focusing on his efforts to restore the Dreaming and pursue redemption.
  • The finale spans 12 episodes—two more than the first season—allowing faithful adaptation of key storylines with the series’ trademark condensed pacing.
  • Season 2 reunites familiar figures like Death and Delirium and introduces new characters such as Orpheus, Loki, Odin and Thor to expand the mythic scope.
