Season 2 of the American supernatural action-thriller TV series “Constantine” still remains in the air as The CW network has yet to officially decide whether to save the show from entire cancellation or not.
Despite its huge following and loyal fanbase, NBC Universal decided to cancel “Constantine” recently leaving the loyal viewers and fans of the show the spectre of not being able to see their favorite hellblazer occult hero John Constantine again.
Early in May, NBC officially cancelled Season 2 of “Constantine” despite continued discussions and negotiations with the network by show creator David Cerone.
He just do not want “Constantine” to go quietly into the night, believing that show fans deserve to see John Constantine and his exploits some more.
Cerone has since gone to deal with sister networks Syfy and The CW and discuss the possibility of having the TV series homed to any of them for its second season.
He has been actively posting the development for the salvage of the show and he only has until June since most of the contracts of the actors of the TV series will end next month.
DC Comics property
“Constantine,” just like “Arrow,” “The Flash,” “iZombie” and the upcoming “Legends of Tomorrow” are all DC Comics property. But unlike the four other series, “Constantine” is now left without a home network although reports have it that its producers and studio Warner Bros Television continue to look around, notes KSite TV.
There is a niche market and long-term future for “Constantine” not only among fans but also among the show’s actors and other celebrities who believe in the show and are even willing to guest on it for its second season if given the opportunity to do so.
Several actors have expressed interest to guest in the show including Stephen Amell from “Arrow,” Joseph Morgan from the “The Originals,” and veteran actor William Shatner from the original and classic “Star Trek” TV and movie series.
It is just a matter of convincing a network to see all these notable potentials of the series.
Possible saviour
After Syfy denied that it was dealing with Cerone regarding “Constantine,” he was left with The CW network as the only chance that the show can be rescued from its cancellation for good. Cerone and the millions of fans of the series are pinning their hopes on CW since the network is also home to series of similar genre as “Constantine” including “Arrow” and “The Flash.”
But the latest tweet and statement from both Cerone and CW president Mark Pedowitz seem to indicate of still uncertain future for the show.
Cerone posted on his Twitter account by writing #Constantine at CW. He added that he does not have the details yet but he admits to be feeling wrecked about it.
Mark Pedowitz, in his latest statement to tvseriesfinale.com said that talks about CW not saving “Constantine” are just plain rumors. He also jokingly added that there is a rumor going around that I was going to play in the NBA.
The statement of Pedowitz actually gave “Constantine” and its fans a glimmer of hope for the possible airing of the show’s second season. But until an official confirmation from the network is made, everyone is still keeping their fingers crossed.
