‘Constantine’ Canceled By NBC (For Real This Time)
Last month,word circulatedthat NBC had cancelledConstantine. As it turned out, that report was premature. ShowrunnerDaniel Ceronequickly clarified that no decision had been made. But that decision has now been made, and yup —Constantinehas been cancelled. For real this time.
However, fans shouldn’t fall into the depths of despair just yet. Cerone offers the faint hope thatConstantinewill get picked up by another network. More onConstantine’s future after the jump.
NBC hasofficially announcedthatConstantinewill not be back for a second season. At least not on their network. As Cerone reassures fans, studio Warner Bros. TV is currently shopping the supernatural drama elsewhere.

Based on the Vertigo Comics seriesHellblazer,ConstantinestarsMatt Ryanas a scruffy antiheroic type who is tasked with defending humanity from evil forces. After a shaky start,Constantinefound its footing as the first season one and in time developed a devoted fanbase.
Unfortunately, its numbers were never great. Last fall, the network declined to extend the initial 13-episode order — rarely a good sign. Even Cerone admitted last month that it was “fair to say” a Constantine renewal was “a long shot.”
But these days, a much-loved but little-seen TV show isn’t really dead until it’s gone, hat in hand, to all the other networks, streaming services, and original content platforms in town.
AsEW’s James Hibberd points out, The CW seems like a natural fit. They’ve had great luck with DC Comics-based properties (likeThe FlashandArrow) and their similarly themedSupernaturalis getting long in the tooth. The Syfy would be another great home forConstantine, though it’s too badthat earlier rumorabout the show landing there in rebranded fashion turned out to be hot air.
But that’s just speculation. For now,Constantinefans, rest assured we’ll be keeping an eye out for more updates on the show’s fate.
