David Goyer is rumored to have pitched to Warner Bros. Pictures a new take on Neil Gaimans magnum opus – his “Sandman” comic series.<\/p>\n

Bad Ass Digest<\/a> is breaking the story and claims the studio has been very receptive to his pitch which apparently involves actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt in the role of Morpheus.<\/p>\n

They also say DCs Hollywood man Geoff Johns is very much behind Goyers version. However, this is all said to be in extremely early stages unlike the recent “Preacher” news which is a done deal as such, so take this news with caution.<\/p>\n

Both big and small screen adaptations of Gaimans comic has long been in development, but none have ever really gotten anywhere despite some major names being involved. The propertys format is also tricky to adapt – the elaborate story arcs too complicated and lengthy to play out on film, but the dense and rich visual world is to expensive to produce as a TV series.<\/p>\n

The 75-issue comic follows Dream aka. Morpheus, the Lord of the dream world who is held captive for seven decades by an occult ritual. Having escaped, his kingdom has fallen into disrepair in his absence and he sets about changing his old ways – hard for a being who has been around for billions of years.<\/p>\n

The series features various elements of mythology, horror, historical events and absurdist humor. Characters include Dreams siblings such as his gothic punk rocker looking sister Death, his talking animal assistants, and the immortal The Corinthian who has two mouths for eyes.<\/p>\n
