Neil Gaiman and Tom Sturridge On What to Expect For 'The Sandman' | Entertainment Weekly

Same which is why I don't know that I will like the Audible adaptation, as Tom is not the narrator. His cadence is impeccable.

[@kerstin_eryel]

I'm getting “awkward introvert who becomes animated when asked a question he likes” vibes from Tom. He even habitually breaks eye contact. No wonder he was cast as Dream.

[@cherijoseph7819]

Neil answered my tweet a few days ago when I was defending him against anti-semetism. After reading his work for decades I had no idea he was actually Jewish. He thanked me and got to tell him how much as a Caribbean American how much Anancy Boys means to me. He was so gracious.

Tom has this way of morphing his voice to this deep mix of Neil’s, his own and Batman that feels like Morpheus’s speech bubbles turned directly into sound - he’s superb. It’s exactly the voice I hear in my head reading the comics.

[@janeeyflores]

He's actually the perfect actor for this role. It's so good --- and loved the series. Just finished it this weekend. Well done!

[@janeeyflores]

Omg over 1500 and they still picked Tom --- so that was definitely worth it.

[@kayarnold3151]

Watching the show I felt like he was created in a lab to be Morpheus. It's surreal how perfect he is for the role.

[@neptunemike]

he looks better with the emo Morpheus hair 😂

[@AngryJesusPrinceOfPax]

Yes he does a perfect job of playing Me! -Dream

I love this interview not just because Neil is always a delight, but also because Tom is such an intelligent actor and everything he says, the way he says it, describes things, is so wise and sincere.

[@bedlampuhedron]

Just finished the show, Tom did a GREAT job! Here's hoping for more seasons!

[@julesjma]

Wonderful to see Tom in this. Get tired of seeing the SAME people being casted over and over. What I love about the UK. The USA does films and you can expect to see the same handful of people over and over. Becomes so tiresome.

[@Cristina313]

I was thinking this exact thing the entire time. It’s so refreshing to see other actors than usual and discover amazing talents. I had no idea who Tom was until this series, but I am glad he got the role.

[@MsTriangle]

I only knew him as Robert Pattinson's friend

[@LifewithFlorence_265]

Loved the cast, it was full of all these actors and actresses who will finally get their big break on the world stage.

[@blueskybelyr]

Agreed! Love that about Mason Alexander Park and Kyo Ra too. Amazing talents that stood out even among stars like Stephen Fry and Jenna Coleman.

[@_sh4rp]

I was thinking the opposite hahah! I always feel like Britain doesn't have enough actors on TV or film cuz they're always the same. I mean we see people from Doctor Who, Game of Thrones, Harry Potter, Ted Lasso - some of the biggest shows. And I'm not complaining, they are fantastic actors. I just find it funny. And I do love it when someone less known shows up, and can stand their ground side by side with these better know, massive talents.

[@AjarofNatella]

I love that Neil knew from the very beginning that Tom was Morpheus, like he said its very rare for an studio to immediately know they have their actor in that first batch of auditions Tom is such an eloquent, passionate and intelligent individual who is able to portray a love for Neil's work and Dreams story in such a mesmerising way. The passion he puts in is so crystal clear to see. Its incredible. Netflix needs to renew, so we can see this incredible Lord of Stories, Dreams and Nightmares continue on his path of change

[@jeanaerowley7150]

I power watched every episode TWICE and had unfortunately never seen Tom in anything before. To say that he EXCEEDED my enormous expectations is an understatement! Morpheus is beautiful, scary, gentle, aggressive, haunted, just…..EVERYTHING I had expected and more! This production did such perfection towards the written material that Tom seriously felt like a creature than a person in a show. There are simply not enough gracious things that I can say about this show’s excellence 😍🙌🏼

[@peters1456]

Makes me giddy. Superb product

[@biancawagstaff5554]

He's in Velvet Buzzsaw. As a semi supporting actor. He has a mustach lol if you enjoy his presence you should watch that. Its also a good movie.

[@helenivanic1628]

Me too. I wasn't aware of Mr Sturridge before The Sandman. Now I'm going back watching the tv shows and movies he's been in. I say Tom is the perfect person to play Dream/Morpheus. Can't see anyone else replacing him. It they do, I ain't gonna watch this show anymore. As Neil Gaiman said: it's Tom, we know it's Tom. You got that right Neil. Can't wait for season 2.

[@TheAglok]

My goodness, Tom at the Morpheus-Death-episode - just nailed the whole iconic scenes. Perfect casting, very gothic vibes with lovely, light hearted Death and pouty Dream.

[@BARAHARI]

That episode was perfect

[@amarawinchester963]

Tom has a really cool soothing voice, I love how he portrayed Dream it reminds me of how Charlie cox portrayed Matt/Daredevil. Both created characters that are vulnerable but intimidating and the same time. And they use very interesting voices. I can seriously listen to their characters talk for hours and hours 😌

[@Chimera723]

I love Sandman and Daredevil too! :) Great series and perfect actors!

Tom and Charlie are friends, Tom also auditioned for Stardust

"Stop being Batman" that was hilarious, Tom did incredible job with his voice acting, not for a second I thought of Batman while watching Sandman, haha :D if anything there was a one moment when I though of Thomas Shelby from Peaky Blinders, but that was just a split second, Tom Sturridge created something unique.

Brilliant! Neil Gaiman is one in a million, really. I'm very happy that this man will receive every moment of glory he deserves. I mean, don't get me wrong... He's already a bloody legend, but the "general" public of popular shows on Netflix need to get a glimpse of what goes on this beautiful and utterly genious mind of his. Thank you everyone involved in this. Can't wait to fangirl over Tom's performance. The man is our Morpheus, I can feel it.

[@idatien2741]

Did the original drawing artists (Sam Kieth and Mike Dringenberg) of The Sandman use Neil Gaiman as inspiration for Morpheus? The messy hair, the thin face, the way you can see his brain work before he answers anything, like he has a million answers ready and just have to pick one, because he has thought about all of it before. And of course; "King of Stories", it's a fitting title for Mr. Gaiman, no?

[@eisbardotdot]

I think it's always been understood it's a mix of Peter Murphy, Robert Smith with a dash of Neil.

[@zenithquasar9623]

I always thought so ahaha.

[@nerissacrawford8017]

Bauhaus front man was the inspiration, visually.

[@neeossenbeck8234]

Traditionally they turned to musicians for inspiration (apart from Death) - f.e. there's a picture of Desire that basically looks like a photo of Annie Lennox. But the costume designers have already shown a sense of humour, so I'd imagine they presented Gaiman with a Mini-me one day :D

[@7_magpies2000]

Funny story but I believe Dave McKean actually photographed Neil to use in one of the covers!

[@lalakuma9]

I think the whole story of Dream needing to change after he was imprisoned and then returned to a very different world is especially relevant to what we're currently facing today. The world is changing quickly, and our dreams must change too.

[@sojourndestination3031]

Agree, I feel that's why I like the show. It's very modern but it doesn't feel modern. A lot shows try to show off while The Sandman is grounded and humble.

[@ecenker]

Regarding eveything Morpheus says should feel like it's etched in stone, because he's seen it all and is so sure of what he says: Because of that, the character really felt old to me without being pretentiously heavy despite his young looks. I think Tom did a great job of that. Nailed it.

[@blacklavoux]

He did sound like batman! 🤣 Looks like a vampire and sound like batman! Just watched the series. Man it’s beautiful and very poetic. I’ve never watched anything like it. Been a fan of Neil for years but never read the sandman. I knew it have very good reviews and it did very good. Amazing!

I am watching this interview to confirm if he really has that pout naturally. My husband and I watched the series and we noticed how he talks and even started joking around talking with a pout. He did an excellent job, it’s funny how I felt bad for his character and loved him because he was captured but then when he escapes and has that one track brain and he doesn’t listen, I didn’t like him and at the end, he starts to listens after he finds out the betrayal of his sibling, I started to love him again. So as an actor if you can do that I think you are an excellent excellent actor and very good at what you do.
