  • The Sandman stars Kirby Howell-Baptiste and Mason Alexander Park, who play Death and Desire in the new Netflix series, sat down to talk about the characters and the series. Howell-Baptiste shared details on how Death and Morpheus differ so much, while Park talked about the dream role. They also shared their thoughts on Neil Gaiman's incredible worlds and storytelling.
    The Sandman premieres on Netflix August 5.
    Synopsis: There is another world that waits for all of us when we close our eyes and sleep - a place called the Dreaming, where The Sandman, Master of Dreams (Tom Sturridge), gives shape to all of our deepest fears and fantasies. But when Dream is unexpectedly captured and held prisoner for a century, his absence sets off a series of events that will change both the dreaming and waking worlds forever. To restore order, Dream must journey across different worlds and timelines to mend the mistakes he’s made during his vast existence, revisiting old friends and foes, and meeting new entities - both cosmic and human - along the way.
    Based on the beloved award-winning DC comic series written by Neil Gaiman, THE SANDMAN is a rich, character-driven blend of myth and dark fantasy woven together over the course of ten epic chapters following Dream’s many adventures. Developed and executive produced by Gaiman,
    showrunner Allan Heinberg, and David S. Goyer, THE SANDMAN also stars Boyd Holbrook, Patton Oswalt, Vivienne Acheampong, Gwendoline Christie, Charles Dance, Jenna Coleman, David Thewlis, Stephen Fry, Kirby Howell-Baptiste, Mason Alexander Park, Donna Preston, Vanesu Samunyai (formerly known as "Kyo Ra"), John Cameron Mitchell, Asim Chaudhry, Sanjeev Bhaskar, Joely Richardson, Niamh Walsh, Sandra James-Young and Razane Jammal.

    Mason is such an interesting person and they were such a fantastic choice to play Desire. They've just got this enchanting quality about them, I'd love to see them in more roles, especially in the fantasy genre.

    Desire is very desirable. Mason Alexander Park is a pretty person, perfect version of the endless character. And honestly seems like a sweet person themselves!

    The unimaginable joy of watching Neil Gaiman read Dreams lines… I have the sneaking suspicion Sandman is actually an Autobiography

    So...for all the ways that I have seen different characters like desire portrayed in different films and shows Desire was absolutely perfect, it didn't feel forced or fake or over the top and most importantly it didn't seem political and absent agendas. Great job Mason.
