Cool Videos: Trailer for fan made short based on Neil Gaiman's Sandman

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

Joseph Gordon-Levitt is developing a feature film based on Neil Gaiman's Sandman comics, but apparently there's also another Sandman project in the works as well. It's a fan made short called Hope in the Abyss from director/producer André Kirkman, and it's being funded through Kickstarter. A trailer/promo video has been released for the short, and it actually looks pretty cool.
