July 2 (UPI) -- Netflix has announced nine new cast members for The Sandman Season 2.

Ruairi O'Connor (The Morning Show), Indya Moore (Pose), Ann Skelly (The Nevers), Douglas Booth (Pride and Prejudice and Zombies), Freddie Fox (The Great), Laurence O'Fuarain (The Witcher: Blood Origin), Clive Russell (Game of Thrones), Jack Gleeson (Game of Thrones) and Steve Coogan (The Trip) have joined the fantasy drama.

The actors join returning stars Tom Sturridge, Kirby Howell-Baptiste, Mason Alexander Park, Donna Preston, Patton Oswalt, Vivienne Acheampong, Gwendoline Christie, Jenna Coleman, Ferdinand Kingsley and Stephen Fry.

The Sandman is based on the Neil Gaiman comic book of the same name. Season 2 will see Morpheus (Sturridge), the King of Dreams, face off with "the formidable rulers of Hell, Asgard, Faerie, and the realms beyond," executive producer Allan Heinberg told Netflix's Tudum.

"Together, they will ensnare Dream in a web of palace intrigue, glamour, demon battles, and spider-sex. None of which Dream is prepared for; all of which transform him into a far more dangerous Dream of the Endless."
