Joseph Gordon - Levitt To Produce A Film For Neil Gaiman's Sandman


The popular comic book character The Sandman will soon be getting the movie treatment.  The comic book by Neil Gaiman started in 1988 and finished in 1996 with a couple of original graphic novels a Death spin off and now is back in a mini series which is a prelude to the original series.

Joseph Gordon - Levitt has signed on to produce and possibly direct and star in the film.  He has joined David Goyer who was involved with the Batman and Superman movies that have come out lately.  It appears that they might be doing the first storyline as is hinted with this hashtag in the tweets announcement #Prelude.  Prelude is the first story in which Morpheus escapes imprisonment and goes after those involved and extracting his revenge.  If that is true fans should read Preludes and Nocturnes the first volume in the trade paperback collection.
Here is the tweets of the announcement.




The Sandman series shifts between horror and fantasy, and the central character is Morpheus, the personification of dreams. After being held captive 70 years, Morpheus escapes, gains revenge and rebuilds his crumbling kingdom while trying to adapt to the times. - See more at: http://www.joblo.com/movie-news/joseph-gordon-levitt-to-star-and-possibly-direct-neil-gaimans-the-sandman#sthash.FMtPuV98.WgVIZ3vf.dpuf
