The rumors also got a leg to stand on when “Constantine” actor Matt Ryan guested on the fifth episode of the recently concluded fourth season of “Arrow” on The CW.
While it was just a one-off deal, the ensuing speculations seem to suggest that there will be more guest appearances for Ryan as Constantine not only on “Arrow” but possibly on “The Flash” and “Legends of Tomorrow.”
When Matt Ryan guested on “Arrow” during its November episode, the TV show had a feast in viewership as it recorded 11% rise from the previous episode.
However, at this point, everything remains as speculations pending the confirmation from either Warner Bros Television or DC Comics, who partnered together to bring the DC Extended Universe to the big screen recently via the blockbuster hit “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” to be followed by “Suicide Squad” to hit theaters in August this year.
NBC was apparently disappointed with the live ratings of “Constantine,” pointing to an over-saturation of comic-inspired TV series. Network officials said back then that they wish that the show had done better live but it did not. “Constantine” did not come out the way they wanted it to be. As much as they love the show, from the business standpoint, it did not do the network well.
Just to point some things out, Marvel do have Netflix series including Dardevil and Jessica Jones which were aired and both have high ratings. Just saying. Maybe compare Marvel to DC fairly? While Marvel is superior in its movies, the TV shows are still debatable. Cheers! :)
