I hate that John's own show never really got the chance to truly take off because it was exactly what a show with Constantine should be, dark, gritty, violent as hell, and full of moral ambiguity. It's great that Matt Ryan got a second chance to portray the character in Legends because he is honestly the only one I can think of for the role, but dear god is it doing the character a gross misjustice.
In my opinion, DC Universe have too many series. It is saturated. Better apply MCU strategy: interchangable series between main characters. Each series could has its own theme: action / gritty / drama / comedy, etc. But it less bored for the fans.
Matt Ryan is John Constantine. He is literally obsessed with playing this character now. He even voices his character in animation and he is perfect for the role in every way.
Matt Ryan as John Constantine is the definition of perfect casting. I don’t know if anyone will ever top his Constantine. If only he’d gotten a big budget show with no network restrictions he would have thrived for years to come as he is so perfect as John.
i mean. regardless of where it is it needs viewership and unfortunately died there. in fact it was because it didn't have the same network restrictions being on NBC rather than a more appropriate network that it failed.
The fact that Matt Ryan also plays Edward Kenway in Assassin's Creed 4 makes moments like these better. Cause you can see John Constantine in Edward and Edward in John.
This series made Constantine one of my favorite DC characters. Keanu as much as I love him, just can't hold a candle to Matt's portrayal of Constantine. Series>Film, The same can be said for Stargate.
I absolutely LOVE how Matt Ryan also acted out Constantine's spellcasting! It's a small thing but just him slapping his hands together and twist out the pentagrams while getting that "I gotta drop a deuce" face really made me love his interpretation of the character more then what Keanu did in the film (although I still LOVE Keanu)
Dang, that evil unicorn is fantastic! It’s literally like something out of my nightmares, so weird to see the bugger on screen. Must say I’d have frozen up and shit my pants in fear too.
Why did the guy in the Buddy Holly glasses just stand there while the cursed unicorn is getting attacked? Some people have the survival instincts of a mud puddle.
I'm here because I just found out that the guy who plays Constantine is the same guy who voiced Edward Kenway in Assassin's Creed Black Flag and I wanted to see him speak and see if I could hear it. Yup, that's definitely Edward Kenway.
I am watching the series again in 2024. Is it me or is there a touch of Dr Strange in John's spell casting? I think that this came first but I might be wrong. It's a n outstanding series and Matt Ryan is sublime.
Matt Ryan is a great actor. I loved both his live action and animated portrayals of John Constantine. And they were both well-written as well. But boy, I cannot get over his outfit. It never looked accurate. In my mind, Constantine's clothes are EXTREMELY lived in, a bit wrinkled, VERY relaxed, maybe a bit dirty, faded, or a bit stained. This version of him always looks like someone cosplaying John Constantine. Doing a great job of cosplaying him, if we were at a con, I'd give him applause. But the costume designer somehow took an outfit that is not supposed to look special and made it look fancy. And that bugs me.
The costuming is great and awful at the same time. He looks exactly like his comic counter part, but... wrong? That tie doesn't look like he did it at 9am but throughout a hard day he's let it go loose. It looks like someone precisely did the tie to look that way. His trench coat doesn't remind me of a hardened detective, it looks like something my exgirlfriend would wear to dinner. His hair doesn't conjure avid blond punk vibes, it makes him look like he's on a professional ice skating team.
The continuity folks must have been having a bad day whenever the second clip was filmed. Goes from having a bloody lip at 2:14 to clean faced at 2:16.
I never got to watch this when it was fresh, but this is John Constantine. I mean, the special affects are not great, I see a lot of Supernatural type of repeat patters, but still it looks fun. I'll have to make some time for it.
Constantine man I watched his spin off series it was good really good shame it got cancelled loved the movie such a good character anti hero but powerful not meny in the DCU can match him for magic
Yo wouldnt it be great if matt ryan came in as this universes constantine for a fun cameo role in the keanu reeves constantine movie?? Like he shows up the last 1/4 of the movie and helps out with some big spell or whatever. That would be dope.... i would be all for that
@@FlamesAndShadowsman that would be epic, dresden files needs another show as well, idk how somme really crappy shows get several seasons but these characters get screwed, it's nuts.
Fun y how the best moment of this video came from Constantine's own show on NBC ane not the crap they had him do on the Arrowverse, which watered doen his charavter and didnt even reference the NBC show. No Chas, Zed, Papa Midnite or Manny ever appeared
I mean they could not let him eat the real thing, could they? Put the joke aside, they need to put out harmless stuff here bcs people otherwise wanna find the real thing and eat it.
She would like him, she hates horses too much. 😜 I AM NOT MARRIGED. Likes strong actors, we are alive: René Halle could be his upgrown son, he works. Don't be scared.

He was perfect for the role definitely. It's so sad he didn't get the chance he deserved
There's like 1 season of Constantine show with him in it I believe
@@bigbrisk8423 I knew that I'm saying there should have been more.
Keanu reaves was the perfect Constantine
i mean. regardless of where it is it needs viewership and unfortunately died there. in fact it was because it didn't have the same network restrictions being on NBC rather than a more appropriate network that it failed.
I feel like 60% of his skillset was rolling his eyes back in his head.
Wish Constantine got more seasons
John is without doubt my favorite DC character
Same
Could do without the gay stuff but yeah he's great besides that whole thing, kinda makes ppl not wanna watch when they push ideology on ppl
@@bigbrisk8423 John has always been Bi even in the comics. It was established in the 90s
@@bigbrisk8423Clearly this character isn’t for you than and we’re better off without a bigot like you watching. This has been who he is forever.
@@bigbrisk8423 🤡 When you gonna stop pushing het ideology on people?
did... did he just send fairy godmother to hell?
I believe he did. On a side note, it was the same actress who played Londo Molari's wife Timov in Babylon 5
@@jimdigriz2923 ----Babylon 5 was a good show.
Constantine made the show for me.
My brother and I, met Mr. Ryan at a Comics Convention ( in Virginia Beach, VA) several years back. He was a very nice and polite, gentleman.
John Constantine is one of my all time favourites and Matt Ryan is the perfect actor in my eyes to play him.
The fact that Matt Ryan also plays Edward Kenway in Assassin's Creed 4 makes moments like these better. Cause you can see John Constantine in Edward and Edward in John.
I knew Kenway sounded familiar
I think you just gave me another reason to go back and actually play that one

Always my favorite Constantine. I remember watching these shows in real time with my dad and us both geeking out when John showed up.
0:24- 0:30 Dearie... Callback from one of my favorite shows OUAT.

Even funnier, the Fairy Godmother actor voiced Mamma Cosmo in Fairly OddParents.
Keanu Reeves is a great Constantine
Matt Ryan is Constantine 💯

i miss this character sm man
Qué le pasó?

Was one of the BEST shows
John always find the way he go around 😂
This wasw such a great show. A shame it got cancelled.
They need to restart his show
The show was great. It had the misfortune of being on NBC, who have a long track record of not supporting good TV.
I agree with everyone here. John Constantine is literally GOATED. Deserves a whole show with 8 seasons.
I really hope there's a chance for his character to be brought back
the way he casted that portal was like dr. Strange ...
He's DC's cooler Dr. Strange.
@@LokiToxtrocity Dcs alcoholic uncle of doctor strange
Hemlock + toadstool = lethal poison. Don't try this at home...😅
They neutered my boy with Legends of Tomorrow. His own show was gritty and great..he's barely a characature of what he should be 😢
Caricature
He's a blast in LoT - literally the only reason ive seen it, But Fuck this ones on GOD
Constantine is my Most! Second Favorite series when it becomes for Supernatural Series....
Number -1 is the One and Only! "SUPERNATURAL"..... 😊👍👍👍👍
Nice video
John seems to be channeling his inner Castiel
Cas stole the look off of him.
I would love to see him come back to this show. It ended prematurely. He’s awesome!🎉❤🎉
Hemlock+Toadstool +Blood= Wind Spell😑
i really do wait for a movie with both Matt Ryan and Keanu Reeves playing alternate versions of constantine...
With everyone doing alternate universes these days, the idea certainly is entertaining
This was one if my favorite shows. Irritated it only got one season.
Why did the guy in the Buddy Holly glasses just stand there while the cursed unicorn is getting attacked? Some people have the survival instincts of a mud puddle.
guys.... at the start of video... which ep was that ?
Bippidy boppoty bWAAAAAAAAHa-
Fairy godmother lol 😝
I'm here because I just found out that the guy who plays Constantine is the same guy who voiced Edward Kenway in Assassin's Creed Black Flag and I wanted to see him speak and see if I could hear it. Yup, that's definitely Edward Kenway.
As much as i like Keanu and his movie Matt was born to play Constantine... Dude looks like taken out directly form comic book's pages...
They should have continued this!!!!
Great
John save me 😢 oh john ,..,
I hope they will reboot it.
Same here. I hope they keep this same feel to it. Maybe add a little more comic book John to him

I was thinking the same thing. He always looks too "clean".
This show needed to continue- SEVERELY underrated
I almost broke my monitor when i realised it was only 1 season! :(
I need to see this John Constantine in his own movie series
The hellhound didn't like the betrayal didn't he?
I haven't watched that show since it first came out. :)

Qual o nome da série ou filme?
Please which serious is john Constantine from
the best Constantine...
Can he light his eyes up on his own or was he possessed? Asking as I didn't get the chance to follow the series
i wish i had known abut his show eariler love constantine
I remember this… It was so cheap they couldn’t even get him a decent trench coat, ffs.

John Constantine on CW?
beautiful people running about in hollywood action poses with martial arts, not the Constantine I am familiar with
I'm just spitballing here, John Constantine versus Castiel
Was thinking Harry Dresden
@@FlamesAndShadowsman that would be epic, dresden files needs another show as well, idk how somme really crappy shows get several seasons but these characters get screwed, it's nuts.
@@FlamesAndShadows who is Harry Dresden?
Name of the series?
Outrageous Matt Ryan never got the call for Sandman
I don’t think the show got the rights for the DC characters
4:26 the guy in the blue shirt isn't that the guy who plays Private Detective Dylan Dogg?
Why did he suddenly need spell components for that one thing but not for summoning a hell portal?
The lady is familiar (pardon the pun). Babylon 5 Londo's remaining wife.
This character is more an powerful character that’s anyone but for me Loki is unbeatable character
😢 They cut off its legs before it could run... Matt was amazing as j.constantine
Was it a children’s show? It’s about the quality of Power Rangers
Ah. They took one of the catsuits from The Legend of the Seeker series out of storage.
I’m sorry he looks like adult Johnny Test to me
i hear edward kenway.
Who tf is that soyboy with the glasses
looks more like a comedy show.
No one:
Granny God mother: Bipiti bopitit ahhhhhhh😂
Wait he had a show?
Clearly correct pronunciation isn't a requirement for spell-casting as much as faith and willpower.
It was a good show with a lot of wasted potential.
Fun y how the best moment of this video came from Constantine's own show on NBC ane not the crap they had him do on the Arrowverse, which watered doen his charavter and didnt even reference the NBC show. No Chas, Zed, Papa Midnite or Manny ever appeared
Bippity boppity?
Why is John practicing unprotected magic by licking a strangers blood with his tongue.
After seeing this, I'm glad I never wasted my time on this show.
Hemlock! ..is sage..
Toadstool! ..is oyster mushroom..
I mean they could not let him eat the real thing, could they? Put the joke aside, they need to put out harmless stuff here bcs people otherwise wanna find the real thing and eat it.
Dude looks like a Dolla Store Castiel!!!!! Lol!!!
No, he looks like John Constantine…..he did the trench coat first
What's the name of the movie?
Legends of Tomorrow. But it takes some seasons
That blonde sidekick woman is a pain in the neck.
ONDE ESTÁ O MONSTRO DO PANTANO ???????????
This guy gives John Constantine a bad name
Much preferred Keanu.
God Legends absolutely went down the drain and wasted john
Cheesy.
