    I just gotta take a moment to reflect on the glorious cinemetography in that movie and the picture perfect casting. What about Peter Stormare’s Lucifer, too?

      Perfect casting for everyone except the main character lol

      Constantine is a chain smoking, blonde punk rocker from Liverpool.

      So… Keanu?

        I still enjoyed his performance. I don’t really care about the accent or hair color if they’re not essential pays off the character.

        And if hair color is essential to the story, that’s probably not one I’m super interested in.

          It would be like making a Superman movie and making him blonde and give him a purple outfit. I’m sure it wouldn’t hurt the movie but it’s super distracting to fans of the character

          Interestingly, the tv Constantine is the most comic book accurate

      Absolutely loved the casting in this. The movie feels so deliberate and there are so many great moments in it, but that final scene with Lucifer is just perfect.
