After two decades of anticipation, the long-awaited sequel to the cult classic “Constantine” is finally gaining traction. Keanu Reeves is set to reprise his iconic role, with director Francis Lawrence at the helm. However, as production looms, creative differences and studio hurdles threaten to derail the project once again.

The script for “Constantine 2” is reportedly finished, but tensions have emerged between Reeves and the studio over the film’s direction. While the studio envisions a grand spectacle, Reeves insists on preserving the dark, spiritual essence that defined the original.

James Gunn’s recent takeover of DC Studios added further uncertainty to the film’s future. However, Reeves and Lawrence managed to pitch their vision directly to Gunn, securing a green light for the project as part of DC Elseworlds.

As filming pushes to 2026 at the earliest, fans are left anxiously wondering if this sequel will finally materialize. With Reeves now 60, time is running out for this beloved character’s return.
