Constantine Movie Officially Confirmed After 20 Years, Though There’s a Catch
A new project takes shape
Deadline reported that DC Studios is moving ahead with a Constantine movie, with Francis Galluppi set to direct. The report describes the project as being pursued by the studio.
Galluppi is currently working on Evil Dead Wrath, the next chapter in Sam Raimi’s horror franchise. The announcement does not provide further details about the new Constantine film.
A sequel remains uncertain
The news has brought uncertainty to a possible follow-up to the 2005 Constantine movie. Keanu Reeves starred in that film, and a direct sequel had also reportedly entered early development.
Reeves and director Francis Lawrence were attached to that separate sequel, according to the report. The article does not say whether that project has been canceled or what may happen to it.
More updates expected
The report presents the situation as developing, with further information potentially to come. It does not offer a release date or additional casting details for Galluppi’s film. The two projects should not be confused: Galluppi is attached to the newly reported movie, while Lawrence and Reeves were linked to the possible sequel. Their status remains unclear.
