Neil elaborated on a potential spin-off in a recent interview with Variety. "Anybody who has seen The Sandman episode three has sidled over to us at some point or other in the last six months and said, 'Do you think there's any possibility that we could do a Johanna Constantine show with Jenna Coleman?'" he told the publication.
"And, oh my God, she's a star and you just want to see her going through battling demons and destroying other people's lives. So that's in there, too. We can keep going on this for a long time to come."
