We needed an actor who could break your heart and keep your sympathy while taking you into the darkest places. Now he's out and on a quest for Truth that may destroy the world. In the present day, now a woman of a hundred identities and a thousand lies, she's played by the brilliant Joely Richardson (she/her). In the 1920s and 30s, she is played by Niamh Walsh (she/her): a betrayed and determined young woman seeking to survive. Jenna Coleman (she/her) gave us the Johanna of our dreams – tough, brilliant, tricky, haunted and probably doomed.ĮTHEL CRIPPS – Roderick Burgess's love, John Dee's mother, is a small but vital role in the comics, but she became more important as we told our story. So having written her, we just had to cast her. We tried it and the script was sparkier, feistier, and in some ways even more fun. When we broke down the first season, given that we knew that we would be encountering Johanna in the past, we wondered what would happen if we met a version of her in the present as well. I created her to fill the role that John Constantine does in the past. This Sandman character became so popular that she even had her own spin-off series. JOHANNA CONSTANTINE – Eighteenth Century occult adventuress, John Constantine's great-great-great grandmother. Donna Preston (she/her) will be playing her, and her performance is chilling and sad. ![]() ![]() She is the moment when all hope is gone, the bleakest of the Endless. We were thrilled when they got the part.ĭESPAIR – Desire's twin, Dream's sister. We had barely started looking when Mason Alexander Park (they/them) reached out on Twitter, and threw their hat into the ring. DESIRE – Dream's sibling and everything you want, whatever you want and whoever you are.
