Last week, Cerone was still very hopeful that CW would rescue “Constantine” from the gallows and in order to sweeten the offer, the showrunner even promised to bring veteran actor William Shatner to the show for Season 2.
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.”
According to the latest viewership figures, “Constantine” had averaged around 3.5 million households weekly. The show ended its first season with 3.3 million viewers, a slight improvement to its series-low penultimate episode with 2.96 million viewers.
The figures gave NBC the impetus to cancel the show for Season 2 after leaving the fans and Cerone hanging for its fate on the network.
“Constantine,” just like “Arrow,” “The Flash,” “iZombie” and the upcoming “Legends of Tomorrow” are all DC Comics property.
