Filming continues in the second season of The Sandman, and some familiar faces will return. Jenna Coleman and Boyd Holbrook will reprise their roles as Johanna Constantine and The Corinthian, respectively.
Filming on the new season of the show kicked off late last year after numerous delays due to the Hollywood strikes. Season 2 (or, as Netflix refers to it, new episodes) will cover at least three volumes, with the bulk of the new episodes based on “Season of Mists” and “Brief Lives.”
Until now, it’s been unclear whether we’ll see the return of either Johanna Constantine, who appeared in 3 episodes in season 1, or The Corinthian, who played a pivotal role, but these new photos spotted at Chatsworth House confirm the duo are returning.
Chatsworth is an estate in Chesterfield, just south of Sheffield in the United Kingdom.
Jamie Childs, the director of The Sandman season 2, struck up a romantic relationship with Jenna Coleman while filming the first season, with the pair currently expecting a baby on the way.
