based on the hellblazer comics, coming to friday's on nbc starting October 24th

Really looking forward to this. Due to NBC being idiots, constantine won't be a chain smoker though.
With all the shit they had on hannibal, they draw the line at chain smoking for constantine?
I'm still going to watch it but it was a pretty stupid decision for the network to delete an integral part of a character like that.
They said it was going to follow the source material closely... but this is kind of bad.

Didn't NBC just do a remake of Rosemary Baby (prob one of my 10 best films of all time)
I saw a preview of that miniseries
it look like typical NBC corporate trash and i refused to soil any decent memory about this classic.
Constantine is a great comic and it was a great movie and i have no doubt
they will completely sanitize it until it has no soul left.

Why have an American actor trying to do an English accent? He's shit at it.

Why? they ruined the source material, only thing they got right with that movie was the chain smoking.
This is closer to what constantine really is. More than the keanu reeves movie ever was.
The supporting cast is the only thing that saved that movie.

to be fair though, Keanu looks really good chainsmoking. Movie def wasn't great, but god damn did they get that part right.
