James Gunn and Peter Saffran have been kind enough to make room for the highly anticipated return of Keanu Reeves.

Still a Flicker of Hope! Keanu Reeves Much Anticipated &#8216;Constantine 2&#8217; Might Still Get a Green-Light Despite the New DC Slate

One of the greatest wonders to come from DC in the past decades has been the
Keanu Reeves starrer, Constantine. A movie so engaging that one wonders what the
root of the magic is. Is it Keanu Reeves being the perfect John Constantine that
one could ask for? Or is it the smooth direction of Francis Lawrence? Whatever
the case may have been, the movie had a huge impact on the viewers. But also on
the man playing John Constantine himself.

Keanu Reeves, despite amassing a global fanbase, has been knocking on the doors
time and again for a Constantine sequel. And after the proverbial mass firing of
the DC actors, especially those from the Synderverse, the future of a
Constantine sequel looked as good as invisible. However, after decades of
hanging on by a thin thread, the Constantine sequel has still not been scraped.


IS KEANU REEVES RETURNING AS JOHN CONSTANTINE?

James Gunn and Peter Safran, after bearing the heat for most of last year,
released the upcoming DC projects that fans can look forward to. And the list
curated by them has some of the most promising entities of DC such as The
Authority, The Brave and the Bold, Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, and more. While
these are all amazing projects, Gunn’s announcement had no updates of a
Constantine sequel, making fans lose all hope of seeing Reeves in his bad-boy
avatar again.

However, a Warner Bros. spokesperson has revealed to EW
[https://ew.com/movies/constantine-2-keanu-reeves-still-a-go-new-dc-slate/],
that the project has yet to be trashed. This is great news for the highly
devoted Constantine fans because it means that Keanu Reeves is likely to
recreate his magic and manipulation master with Francis Lawrence.

The 2005 movie was also directed by Lawrence and surpassed the hundred million
milestone at the box office in no time. Making a sequel, especially when Reeves
is at his peak, is a step in the right direction.

However, since the project was not announced as a part of the upcoming DC slate,
it is unclear when it is going to release. Furthermore, fans have yet to forget
what happened with Henry Cavill [https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/henry-cavill/].
And cannot help but draw parallels between him and Reeves. Hopefully, that is
not the case.

What are your expectations from Constantine 2? Let us know in the comments

Meet Aliza Siddiqui, a Hollywood News reporter at Netflix Junkie. Her love affair with Hollywood began with Anne Hathaway and The Princess Diaries, but it was the thrilling climax of Don’t Look Up that cemented her infatuation with the industry and its filmmaking. Aliza's journey into entertainment reporting began with her time at Otakukart, where she wrote over a thousand articles. Her writing style is cheeky and engaging, as seen in her report "Somewhat Alarmed," where she narrates Jimmy Kimmel's hilarious story of how Jason Bateman tricked him into gecko-sitting. Aliza's ultimate dream is to study and critique films that capture her imagination and the attention of movie-goers worldwide. When she is not busy binge-watching Sacha Baron Cohen movies and The Office, she loves to curl up with a weathered copy of a Khaled Hosseini or Indu Sundaresan book.
