Constantine: Keanu Reeves will take on the lead role in the sequel

The supernatural thriller based on the DC Comics universe will soon return to theaters with a new movie.

Warner Bros Discovery is officially preparing a new part of Constantine. Canadian comedian Keanu Reeves will reunite with director Francis Lawrence (I Am Legend, The Hunger Games, The Snake Queen), who made his behind-the-camera debut in the original film about supernatural exorcist and demonologist John Constantine. When he dies, he stays by his side to save his soul and prevent the demons of hell from invading the earth. He then intervenes in the battle between Archangel Gabriel and Lucifer.
