“It’s going fine. I’m writing a script about Constantine 2. It’s good. I hope to have a script for my partners soon. There was always this desire, if not lurching, to try to redo it. We tried it for TV, and we could never quite get the rights back; the rights were sort of going around. There was a sort of ground swell—there was a TV series somewhere in there,” he said during an interview with a US media outlet.
It is not known when the script will be finished and when DC Chief James Gunn will finalise the story so that it can be presented on the big screen.
However, it has been confirmed that the ‘John Wick’ actor will be reprising his role as ‘Constantine’ in the sequel.
