SPOILER ALERT: Do not read if you have not yet watched “A Dream of a Thousand Cats”/”Calliope,” the surprise 11th episode of “The Sandman” Season 1. Netflix’s “T…
titled “A Dream of a Thousand Cats”/”Calliope,” dropped Friday.
“Once, I put the ‘Here Comes a Candle’ book cover up on Twitter,” Gaiman said, referring to a fictional book featured in his “Sandman” issue “Calliope.” “I replied to somebody about ‘A Dream of a Thousand Cats,’ and I said we started casting the cats already. But then I shut up — until there was a moment where Allan came the closest to kicking me under the table he has ever come in his entire life.
Goyer continued: “It was unconventional and it felt very much in-spirit with Neil’s unconventional run. We had many offers to make ‘Sandman’ amongst the buyers — but Netflix was the only one that agreed to make the ‘secret’ episode. And truthfully, that was one of the major reasons we went with Netflix. We felt they got it in a way the others didn’t. We told them we wanted to tackle ‘Dream of a Thousand Cats’ first and that we wanted it to be animated.
Hulsing worked with Untold Studios in London for the 3D animation of the cats in the story, as well as Submarine Studios in Amsterdam for the 2D animation, oil paintings and stylizing. Heinberg aded: “That happened to be because Sandra had just gotten into London to start ‘Killing Eve’ Season 4 and we were having breakfast. And it all came together.”
“I really wanted to have an actress who felt she had that strength and that dignity and that kind of quiet defiance,” Hooper said. “It’s such a modern parable, of course there’s echoes of #MeToo, and I didn’t want her to be in too skimpy clothes, to feel too exposed. I wanted her to have that vulnerability, of course, but to have that elegance and that strength… And Melissanthi met that vision. She wanted the same thing.
