NBC has released their first official image of Matt Ryan as John Constantine for their upcoming series based on the DC/Vertigo character.
“I’ve been a fan of John Constantine since he was first introduced in 1985,” executive producer David S. Goyer said. “This Constantine, envisioned by Neil Marshall and embodied by Matt Ryan, looks like he sprang directly from the comics’’covers. Fans old and new are going to be in for a treat.”
Set to star Ryan as the titular character, “Constantine” will also feature Lucy Griffiths as Liv, Harold Perrineau as the angel Manny and Charles Halford as Constantine’s friend Chas. Written by Daniel Cerone (“The Mentalist”) from a story by Cerone and Goyer, the pilot for “Constantine” is currently in production with The Descent and “Game of Thrones” director Neil Marshall at the helm.
