• 

  Kat Dennings has been cast as one of the Endless.

Update, May 13: Neil Gaiman has confirmed more tantalizing details about the first-ever adaptation of Sandman outside of comic pages, including the all-important release date: July 15, exclusively on Audible. Fans can pre-order the collection as a standalone $35 purchase or receive the whole thing as part of a paid, ongoing Audible subscription.

While no audio samples have yet been released, Gaiman took the opportunity to confirm the cast's principal players, with Gaiman making an unsurprising turn as the story's narrator. The massive cast reveal begins with celebrities such as Riz Ahmed (Venom, Rogue One), Kat Dennings (2 Broke Girls), Taron Egerton (Rocketman, Kingsman series), Andy Serkis, and Michael Sheen, with James McAvoy in the middle of it all as Morpheus. The full announced cast is embedded in the above gallery, and you can learn more about the comic's unique audiobook adaptation below.
