The Constantine series was the very first comic-book TV failure of the present era, with the series only running 13 episodes on NBC from 2014-2015. It was an strange option in the very first location for such a risk-free network, considering that it was about a conflicted, foul-talking demon competitor who might be as poor as the evil he fought, played by Matt Ryan.
But Warner hasn’t provided up on the character. (Which is great, considering that the show was much better than you may think. It wasn’t provided sufficient time to get its legs under it.) First, Ryan guest-starred on an episode of Arrow. Next, the character, still played by Ryan, was the lead of Justice league Dark, an animated direct-to-video movie.
Now, Constantine will be an animated series, airing on the CW Seed digital network in 2018. Something similar was made with Vixen, who after some live-action appearances, got a short animated series (that was later repackaged as a movie). Here’s the Constantine very first look trailer, where he plays demons off against each other.
The digital location enables for a lot more blood as well as poor words, it seems, as well as animation makes it simple to do demon battle special effects. The series is written by long-time comic author J.M. DeMatteis. There’s likewise a discount poster.
Ryan will likewise return as (live-action) Constantine in two episodes of DC’s Legends of Tomorrow season 3. The John Constantine character was produced by Alan Moore, Steve Bissette, as well as John Totleben as well as very first appeared in the Swamp thing comic book.
