Neil Gaiman’s ‘The Sandman’ Movie Loses Joseph Gordon-Levitt After Disagreement With New Line

Back in December of 2013 it was reported that Joseph Gordon-Levitt was set to produce and possibly even star in and direct a movie adaptation of Neil Gaiman‘s comic book series The Sandman for Warner Brothers. The project was then moved from Warner Brothers to their smaller sister studio New Line Cinema in June of last year.
This apparently wasn’t the best move if you were excited about Gordon-Levitt’s involvement in the movie, as it’s now being reported that he has walked away from the adaptation after a disagreement with New Line. Stop me if you’ve heard this one before.

The Hollywood Reporter ran an article yesterday about how Warner Bros. is currently in the process of moving some of their less kid-friendly DC Comics movie projects, including Joseph Gordon-Levitt‘s Sandman adaptation, over to their New Line Cinema division.
Buried at the very end was the most distressing news the article contained: Guillermo del Toro is no longer directing Justice League Dark, by far the one future DC film venture I wanted to see made more than anything.

Watch The TV Spot For Neil Gaiman’s ‘The Sandman: Overture’

Halloween week saw the release of Sandman: Overture #1, writer Neil Gaiman‘s return to The Sandman universe in an all-new 6-issue miniseries from DC/Vertigo Comics.
The publisher has put out a TV spot for the miniseries, which you can watch here below. (Oh how I’d LOVE to see this TV spot pop up on my television!)
The miniseries, written by Gaiman, has art by J. H. Williams III (that’s a very Pink Floyd’s The Wall-esque piece from issue #1 here above), with Williams and long-time Sandman cover artist Dave McKean providing the covers.
Sandman: Overture #1 is also available right now for the Kindle, and there will be a Special Edition for the issue coming out on November 27, 2013.

The GoD List: Comics For October 30, 2013
|
 |

Each and every week, I, “Count Chocula†Henchman21, and “Boo Berry†Empress Eve read a lot of comics. Seriously you guys, a lot of comics. Maybe too many comics. I mean, it is possible… theoretically. Naturally, we look forward to some more than others. I mean, who doesn’t? So, let’s take a look into the depths of our pull lists, grab some comics, and we’ll let YOU know what the top books to look forward to are for the week of October 30, 2013. Single issues and trades, they’re all here.
It’s Halloween, kiddies which means it’s time for us to bring you a list full of creepy tales to keep you entertained on a dark and stormy night. Or maybe you’re not into the whole horror thing and you just want to keep up with your favorite superheroes. Fortunately, we’ve got something for everyone today. So go out and pick up some comics, and if you’re got a little extra money and plan on handing out candy to the neighborhood kids, consider buying some cheap kid friendly issues out of the quarter bins and hand those out along with the candy. It’s better than handing out floss or pennies or anything that isn’t candy. If there’s one thing we don’t recommend, it’s getting your house egged because you let down all those trick or treaters. So, go out, have fun, stay safe, and enjoy comics with this extra scary edition of The GoD List!
