Could Constantine Show Up in ‘Arrow’? Maybe.

We’ve still got loads of San Diego Comic-Con stuff cooking in the Geekscape kitchen, but there’s one hot news bit we want to share with you: Could John Constantine show up in Arrow? It’s possible!

At Comic-Con this weekend, Arrow executive producers that some “political” brouhaha and actor Matt Ryan’s schedule are in conflict, but otherwise they’re working and “hopeful” they can welcome the chain-smoking bastard into Starling City.

From IGN:

Yeah, we really want to do it. It’s something we’ve been talking to DC about and it’s just a question of some political things, but also the actor’s schedule. We’re trying to work it out, but we don’t know 100 percent if it’s going to happen. … But we’re really optimistic and we would love to have him

Matt Ryan just got a gig on Broadway with A-listers Keira Knightley and Judith Light. So if Constantine were to show up, it’s likely not going to happen this upcoming season of the show, but keep your fingers crossed Hellblazers. I for one would love to see Constantine continue his adventures on Arrow. And the uber-optimist in me sees that as a “backdoor pilot” of sorts for a Constantine revival. Yeah, my head is in the clouds, but hey — stranger things have happened.

Would you be down for Constantine staring down the Arrow? Let us know!
