The Netflix series garnered quite some attention, as it includes an ensemble of highly talented casts, including Game of Thrones alums. Gwendoline Christie, who played Brienne of Tarth in the fantasy series, will play a gender-swapped version of Lucifer in the show. And she is highly excited about it. Netflix has teased a first look at Game of Thrones star Gwendoline Christie on the set of the new drama series The Sandman.
In a brand-new teaser clip shared by Netflix Geeked, Sandman creator Neil Gaiman gives us a sneak peek behind-the-scenes at some of the sets being built at Shepperton Studios, where the series is being produced. We also get to hear from a couple of the show’s stars. Christie reveals just how excited she is to be taking on the role of Lucifer in the clip.
“I read the Sandman graphic novels so I knew that I simply had to be involved in this project because something truly unique was going to happen,” she says in the video. “The sets are vast. A great amount of detail and care has been put into how it’s being brought to life.”
Her co-star Tom Sturridge, who is playing Dream, also describes himself as an “obsessive Sandman fan”, with Gaiman promising that the new series is “being made for people who love Sandman by people who love Sandman”

Peter Dinklage played one of the most influential characters on Game of Thrones, Tyrion Lannister. Similar to Tyrion, Peter’s life was no bed of roses. He rose to success with years of dedicated hard work. Everyone faces a time in their life when they feel like they are at their absolute lowest. If you’re going through such an experience, the following speech is exactly what you need. Speaking at Bennington College in 2012, actor Peter Dinklage gave a rousing speech. Check it out here!
Dinklage said, “Don’t search for defining moments because they will never come. Well, the birth of your children, OK, of course, forget about it, that’s just six months. My life is forever changed, that’s the most defining moment ever. But I’m talking about the rest of your life and most importantly in your work. The moments that define you have already happened. And they will already happen again. And it passes so quickly.”
He continued, “When I went to school here, if a freshman wanted to write direct and star in her own musical, the lights would already be hung for her. Now I tell the story because the world might say you are not allowed to yet. I waited a long time out in the world before I gave myself permission to fail. Please, don’t even bother asking, don’t bother telling the world you are ready. Show it. Do it,” he said and concluded with a quote from playwright Samuel Beckett. ‘What did Beckett say? “Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try Again. Fail again. Fail better.”’

The cast of Game of Thrones consisted of a host of highly talented actors. Some of them had their careers set up by the show. They sort of grew up with the series, like Sophie Turner (Sansa Stark). Others were already famous and highly decorated, like Lena Headey, who played the villainous Lion Queen Cersei Lannister. Headey will now play the lead role in the movie Gunpowder Milkshake.
The movie’s first trailer, which was released on Tuesday, introduces us to Sam, played by Karen Gillan (Guardian of the Galaxy, Jumanji), a second-generation assassin whose mother (Lena Headey) abandoned her years earlier. However, Sam must reunite with her mother in order to save an eight-year-old girl after a job goes wrong. The two call on a society of underground hitwomen including Carla Gugino (Watchmen), Angela Bassett (Black Panther), and Michelle Yeoh (Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon).
There are Gatling guns, characters diving over countertops, mysterious old libraries, car fights, a shootout in a ’50s-style diner. Of course, the movie’s fights have more than just shooting in them. There’s also some hand-to-hand combat, and at least one instance of a character rushing into battle with just two hammers.
Lena has also joined the TV adaptation of Hugh Howey’s sci-fi novel Beacon 23. Are you excited about the upcoming guns-blazing action movie? Tell us in the comments below!
