And I was like, ‘Ooh.’”

 may have only premiered on Netflix last Friday, but fans are already looking to the future. It's no surprise considering that the 10-episode series is a long-awaited adaptation of Neil Gaiman's beloved comic book series that's finally arrived on the small screen after several failed attempts! And after an explosive season finale that leaves more problems than solutions, the biggest question that remains is, will there be a season 2? Nothing's been announced, and Gaiman played coy when ET posed the question to him and  co-creator Allan Heinberg.

Kirby Howell-Baptise was more than ready to step up to the plate. «I don't think it's helpful when taking on something like this to be thinking about what comes after, whether that be people's opinions or accolades or whatever. I think that in acting and in life, the way to be happy and satisfied is to be as present as possible,» the London-born actress tells ET. «So for me, being presented with the opportunity to play a role that I loved from the first time I read superseded any fears or doubts I may have had about the reaction after.»It's a wise approach that isn't unlike the confident attitude exhibited by Death, the big sister of 's nominal character.

 adaptation has been several years in the making and is finally making its small screen debut! The 10-episode series premieres on Netflix this Friday, and the long-awaited adaptation of Neil Gaiman's beloved comic series is packing serious heat for eager fans.Tackling the comic's story from the beginning, the series follows Morpheus (Tom Sturridge), known as Dream and the titular Sandman, as he breaks free from decades-long imprisonment by humans to return to his kingdom of the Dreaming. The anthropomorphic personification of dreams discovers that his home has fallen into disarray in his absence and, to restore order, he 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.The series features a star-studded cast alongside Sturridge that includes Kirby Howell-Baptise, Gwendoline Christie, Vivienne Acheampong, Stephen Fry, Boyd Holbrook, Charles Dance, Asim Chaudhry, Jenna Coleman, David Thewlis, Joely Richardson, Mason Alexander Park, and voice work from Patton Oswalt and Mark Hamill. The show was originally pitched as a film adaptation by filmmaker David S.
