Constantine: City of Demons Trailer

Warner Bros. Animation and DC Comics is giving us another “R” rated animated movie.  I’m glad to see that the North American market with DC are making inroads into a mature market with animation.  Constantine: City of Demons continues DC’s venture into mature animation.  The animation looks nice and the story is what you would expect in a Constantine story.  Can’t wait to see this movie and I definitely want to see additional mature animated movies or shows pop up with not just DC, but other companies as well.  I don’t want it done just to do it, but only if the story fits the mature rating.  Here’s the trailer to Constantine: City of Demons from DC’s YouTube channel:

Supergirl/Flash Crossover Announced

ICv2 has posted some exciting news for DC television fans.  Executive Producers Greg Berlanti and Andrew Kreisberg announced that the CW’s Flash will appear in CBS’ Supergirl.  The Crossover episode will air March 28.  This will bring the DC television universe a fifth tie-in show even though Supergirl is on CBS.  It has already been stated that Constantine has been in Arrow even though that show was canceled the character has lived on.  The other three (Flash, Arrow, and DC’s Legends of Tomorrow) being on the CW.  Don’t know how they would tie in with Gotham unless they bring in a grown up Bruce/Batman and use the same villain actors with some aging makeup on them or have the Legends of Tomorrow team go to that timeline in Gotham.  It would be really cool if they could get them all tied together.

Constantine First Look

The “Constantine” YouTube channel is giving us a first look at the upcoming Constantine television series.  This one looks really good and I hope it makes it through the crowd of new shows this fall.  Constantine premiers October 24 on NBC.  And now the first look:

Spectre in Constantine?

Will the Spectre be showing up in Constantine, the DC Comics Vertigo title on NBC?  Things kind of point that direction as the show as added the character Jim Corrigan, to the show to be played by Emmett Scanlan, who is known to be Spectre in the DC Universe.  This could be another fun series like Arrow if they introduce several of DC’s supernatural characters to the show.

What would really be cool is if they would tie this into Arrow and Flash for crossovers.  But that’s probably to much to ask for.

Constantine Television Series Trailer

I always enjoyed Hellblazer and I even liked the Constantine feature film enough to watch it a few times.  However, this new television series looks to be the best interpretation for Constantine.  They actually got an appropriate actor to play the part and the trailer looks impressive.  Check it out below thanks to the “NBCConstantine” channel on YouTube:

Constantine First Image

This is the first shot of Matt Ryan in the traditional Constantine attire for the NBC pilot.  I remember Matt Ryan from his stint on Torchwood.  When you think about it, it’s kind of odd that the BBC never went after this property (and maybe they did and I don’t know about it) they would have done it up good.  I hope NBC will do it right.  Thanks to ICv2 for the image and you can read more here at their link: http://www.icv2.com/articles/news/28126.html
