Rumors Abound About Constantine

Showrunner Says It's Not Over Yet

By David Clark

Gossip has abounded in recent months regarding the cult NBC show Constantine. Since the network announced early renewals that did not mention Constantine fans of the series have feared a premature end to the dry humored hero. In a bewildered attempt to placate fan fears Daniel Cerone took to Twitter and explained the show’s status.

Over a series of tweets Cerone revealed NBC’s renewal press release in February was not fully inclusive of all the networks intentions moving forward. Cerone seemed surprised by the assumption the show was already canceled.

“NBC made some early pickups but #Constantine not canceled”.

According to Daniel, NBC has yet to even hear a pitch regarding the second season of Constantine. “We'll pitch them our plans for 2nd season in May. Then they decide,” said Cerone.

Until the pitch is made it would seem premature to assume cancellation is inevitable despite ratings projections. Cerone encourages fans of the series to show their desire for a second season by viewing legally obtained physical and digital Constantine episodes through media outlets such as Amazon, Itunes, and Hulu.

Cerone summed up the situation by saying, “Anyone putting money in studio coffers by purchasing #Constantine in any form will motivate [the] studio to find a home for [the] show.”

Two months out from a renewal being pitched to NBC leaves time for fans to show the network a real desire for a second season pick-up. Given the speculation surrounding the show this latest news should alleviate fears and create hope for the struggling shows fans.
