TV and DC Comics are on a roll this development season with a third high-profile project. Constantine, a drama based on the characters in DC Comics’ John Constantine stories, has sold to NBC with penalty. It is written/executive produced by The Mentalist executive producer Daniel Cerone and David S. Goyer, the go-to writer for Warner Bros.’ feature DC adaptations.

AdamKendall Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Damn ... DC seems to be quite busy. So next year we could possibly have. Arrow & Flash on CW (I enjoy Arrow quite a bit, despite it's somewhat slow start) Gotham on Fox Constantine on NBC Okay, now DC lets either get Wonder Woman appearing in BvsS or a feature film being announced soon.

AdamKendall Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 (edited) Looks great ... like John Constantine. Although, wrestling fans ... he also looks like CM Punk in a trench coat with his dirty blonde hair from years ago.

cozmeesah Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 My sister & friend saw this pilot at Universal Studios last week for one of those TV/movie focus group things. They said it has potential but some of the actors were horrid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boomboom234 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Based on the wildly popular comic book series “Hellblazer” from DC Comics, seasoned demon hunter and master of the occult John Constantine (Matt Ryan, “Criminal Minds”) specializes in giving hell… hell. Armed with a ferocious knowledge of the dark arts and his wickedly naughty wit, he fights the good fight — or at least he did. With his soul already damned to hell, he’s decided to leave his do-gooder life behind, but when demons target Liv (Lucy Griffiths, “True Blood”), the daughter of one of Constantine’s oldest friends, he’s reluctantly thrust back into the fray – and he’ll do whatever it takes to save her. Before long, it’s revealed that Liv’s “second sight” — an ability to see the worlds behind our world and predict supernatural occurrences — is a threat to a mysterious new evil that’s rising in the shadows. Now it’s not just Liv who needs protection; the angels are starting to get worried too. So, together, Constantine and Liv must use her power and his skills to travel the country, find the demons that threaten our world and send them back where they belong. After that, who knows… maybe there’s hope for him and his soul after all. The cast also includes Harold Perrineau and Charles Halford. Writer Daniel Cerone (“The Mentalist,” “Dexter”) serves as executive producer with David S. Goyer (“Man of Steel,” “The Dark Knight Rises”). “Constantine” is produced from Bonanza Productions in association with Warner Bros. Television. The show is based upon characters published by DC Entertainment. It looks pretty good, he actually looks like Constantine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will pair well with Grimm, and ratings expectations for Friday shows are much lower than for weekdays (which is why Grimm and Hannibal are both coming back next season) http://youtu.be/uPE2oBnzROY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grim22 Posted May 11, 2014 Author Share Posted May 11, 2014 Plus Hannibal is awesome When NBC announced that Constantine was picked up, my immediate thought was "This will pair well with Grimm", good to see that is exactly where they are placing the show. a 13 episode season would be great, as much as I love Arrow, 24 episodes is just too much, 13 episodes removes the filler almost completely. Other pairings which are almost guaranteed - Arrow and Flash Wednesdays 8pm and 9pm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
