Matt Ryan

There may be no weirder trajectory for a character than Matt Ryan’s Constantine. After a one-season NBC series and subsequent Arrow-verse resurrection, the fan-favorite DC hero is officially making a full-time return as a Legends of Tomorrow regular next season.

Jury’s out on whether Matt Ryan’s Constantine will ever return to live-action, but our favorite demon-hunting detective has nonetheless found new life. See for yourself in a first look at the CW Seed animated series, now set for a 2018 premiere.

You didn’t think Arrow, Flash and Supergirl were the only DC dramas to preview their wares at Comic-Con 2017, did you? Meet the new Vixen villain complicating Legends of Tomorrow’s already-broken timeline, and see what Damien Darhk and Constantine have to do with the first Season 3 trailer!

Constantine fans got another return to form with news that Matt Ryan would reprise his NBC role for the upcoming Justice League Dark, but that was only a trial run. The demon-fighting detective (and his live-action voice) will return as an animated CW Seed series, the first photo of which is already here!

It doesn’t appear as if Constantine will be returning to The CW just yet (though Matt Ryan has his own Justice League to attend to), so where best to get your fix of the chain-smoking demon-detective? NBC’s Constantine will officially hit Blu-ray in October, after time spent on CW Seed.

The Arrow-verse may feel a bit busier than usual this year, to add both Supergirl and a host of other DC heroes and villains to the ranks. Unfortunately, that crowded feeling might push Matt Ryan’s John Constantine to the fringe, as Arrow bosses have no plans to return the character in any capacity just yet.

Arrow showrunners made clear that Matt Ryan’s crossover return to the role of Constantine was a one-off for Season 4, but in lieu of seeing the actor’s take once again, we can at least hear it in the animated Justice League Dark. A new featurette goes behind-the-scenes of the long-awaited adaptation, including Ryan’s return as the chain-smoking demon-fighter.

‘Arrow’ Season 4 delights DC fans by the arrival crossover of ‘Constantine’ to save Sara’s soul, but is the series still “Haunted” by its endless ‘Legends of Tomorrow’ setup? Our full review!

Anticipation only grows for Arrow and Constantine to crossover by Wednesday’s “Haunted,” but might we see Matt Ryan dropping by Star City once again? Our first official clip from the landmark crossover sees Oliver and John in good spirits, even with Damien Darhk on the horizon, but promising to meet again.

Despite a few unfortunate leaks over the weekend, most Arrow and Constantine fans will at last get their wish tomorrow, as Stephen Amell and Matt Ryan share the screen for the first time to confront a “Haunted,” Sara. The CW has released a new preview for the hour, showing off the dynamic between the two comic heroes (well, hero-antihero), along with Sara’s mental state and a surprising new partnership.
