Less than two months later, nine more new faces have joined the cast roster, and there are more than a couple of familiar faces among the acclaimed show’s latest additions.

One of the best Netflix shows‘ sophomore outings will bring The Sandman‘s take on Norse gods and brothers Loki and Thor to life, too, with Freddie Fox (House of the Dragon season 2) and Laurence O’Fuarain (The Witcher: Blood Origin) set to play the God of Mischief and God of Thunder respectively.
