Remember the mid-2000s when there wasn't twelve comic book movies every year?
Directed by Francis Lawrence, Constantine is the superhero horror film based on DC Comics' Hellblazer comic book. Keanu Reeves stars as John Constantine, a cynical exorcist with the ability to perceive and communicate with half-angels and half-demons in their true form.
Luke and Jae return to 2005 to revisit the live-action Constantine before a new interpretation of him became a player in DC's Arrowverse.
As a suicide survivor, demon hunter John Constantine (Keanu Reeves) has literally been to hell and back and he knows that when he dies, he's got a one-way ticket to Satan's realm unless he can earn enough goodwill to climb God's stairway to heaven. While helping policewoman Angela Dodson (Rachel Weisz) investigate her identical twin's apparent suicide, Constantine becomes caught up in a supernatural plot involving both demonic and angelic forces.
