‘The Sandman’ spin-off moves from HBO Max to Netflix

The DC drama Dead Boy Detectives has been sold by HBO Max to Netflix. According to sources, the series would no longer fit with the streaming service’s plan. In the near future, James Gunn and Peter Safran plan to bring five interconnected DC series to HBO Max. Not until 2024 would there be room for Dead Boy Detectives. The makers were given permission to find another home for the series.
