This just in-
Keanu Reeves return as demonologist John Constantine in film being developed by Bad Robot. This comes after news of a series being developed by JJ Abrams and Bad Robot for HBO Max last year.
Following the news of Reeves coming back for the film, HBO Max has reportedly PASSED on the Abrams series. It was reportedly going to be a more “Hellblazers” based take on the character. Sources indicated it would be “much darker,” and possibly look to relaunch the long-stalled DC Dark Universe. Shocked. Shocked, we say, to hear HBO Max would pass on something audiences wanted.
Other big news today included director Francis Lawrence, who did the 2005 film with Reeves, will be returning as well. Akiva Goldsman will be writing the script.
We’ll let you know what else we hear about this and other news.
