Netflix’s The Sandman has found its remaining Endless Family season two members. Esmé Creed-Miles is confirmed to play Delirium, Adrian Lester will star as Destiny, and Barry Sloane has joined the cast as The Prodigal.

Returning Endless Family members include Tom Sturridge (Being Julia) as Dream, Kirby (Sugar) as Death, Mason Alexander Park (Quantum Leap) as Desire, and Donna Preston (Good Omens) as Despair. Also reprising their roles are Patton Oswalt, Vivienne Acheampong, Gwendoline Christie, Jenna Coleman, Ferdinand Kingsley, and Stephen Fry.

Asim Chaudhry, Sanjeev Bhaskar, Vanesu Samunyai, and Razane Jammal are also returning from season one.

“When the Sandman, aka Dream (Sturridge) — the powerful cosmic being who controls all our dreams — is unexpectedly captured and held prisoner for over a century, he must journey across different worlds and timelines to fix the chaos his absence has caused,” reads Netflix’s synopsis. “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.”

Author Neil Gaiman, Allan Heinberg, and David S. Goyer developed the series and serve as executive producers. Heinberg is the writer and showrunner, with Jamie Childs directing all episodes.
