Development[edit]
In 2011, Constantine director Francis Lawrence stated, regarding a sequel:
It's interesting that over the years, Constantine seems like it's become ... like it has this sort of cult following, which has been great. It's been embraced. It would be great to figure out a sequel, and if we did, and we've been trying to figure one out, it would be great to do the really dark, scary version. We got caught in that weird PG-13–R no man's land, and we should do the hard-R scary version, which I would love to do.[2]
It was announced in November 2012 that Guillermo del Toro had signed a deal to write and direct a Justice League Dark film centered around DC Comics' supernatural characters, John Constantine among them.[3]
Keanu Reeves stated in May 2019 that he was open to reprising the role in the future.[4] He again expressed interest in a sequel in December 2021, saying: "I would love to be John Constantine again."[5]
In November 2020, Peter Stormare, who portrayed Lucifer Morningstar in Constantine, announced in a post on Instagram that a sequel was "in the works", though neither representatives for Warner Bros. nor Reeves immediately responded to requests for comment.[6]
In September 2022, Deadline Hollywood reported that Warner Bros. was developing a Constantine sequel, with Reeves set to return in the lead role. Lawrence will return as the film's director, with Akiva Goldsman writing the screenplay. Goldsman will also produce, alongside J.J. Abrams & Hannah Minghella.[1]
