Constantine TV Show Will Stick To The Comics


Following the burst of excitement with the trailer and some images, NBC's Constantine has been oddly quiet, until now. Speaking with IGN, star Matt Ryan revealed that there is the determination to use the comics as a blueprint for the show.

"I think as with the source material, there's so much to draw from in terms of the character and the balance of humor and wit and dark and gritty. It's great, because John has this kind of real sarcastic, ironic British wit. It's funny, but at the same time it's serious and dark and gritty. It's got it all, I think. We're trying to stay as close to the source material as possible and really do the comics justice."

The series lives in two worlds, the comic and the supernatural, and the actor says he's excited by this new trend and how big it has become.

"I think it's the new golden age of comic books, isn't it? It's great to see DC having so many shows on the air as well. It's just a fantastic opportunity for NBC, I think, on a Friday night, to have this genre. We follow Grimm, and I think that that's a fantastic thing for fans of this genre. They can really get a kick out of that."

Constantine premieres on October 24th.
