It’s not surprising that a much-anticipated and well-loved property has fans excited. Especially when it’s something like the live-action adaptation of Neil Gaiman‘s comic book, “The Sandman.” The series has been in the works for sometime through Netflix, and the small glimpses we’ve gotten have been wonderful.
Understandably, fans want it NOW. Some outlets, apparently, do too. IGN, one of the pinnacles of pop-culture genre journalism, reported recently that they alone knew the release date of the upcoming series.
Gaiman refuted this report. The author indicated that while principal filming is complete, post production is currently underway.
So, make of that what you will.
IGN has since removed the post.
We’ll let you know when Netflix officially announces a release date for “The Sandman.”
