Stephen Amell of Arrow has offered to guest star if a network picks it up.

Noooooooooo.

This is the only DC show currently running I like. "The Arrow" showing up on it... wouldn't be as bad as it not getting picked up for another season, but still pretty bad.

It'd be so unfair for this show to get axed though. Between being put in a terrible timeslot and getting its episode number cut down, it got such a raw deal.

NOMUUUUUUUURAAAAAAAA!!! >:(

I like how Stephen Amell is always willing to guest star on other shows, even ones that arent in the same comic universe as his such as agents of shield

Me too. He is really supportive of other shows. The man likes his work.

[up]Grant Gustin retweeted William Shatner's tweet about appearing on the show if a network picks it up.

Love triangles ahoy. On the bright side, two love interests means a better chance at least one will be male. =D

I'd actually love if after all the talk about what a douche Ollie is, suddenly the Arrow-verse runs into John Constantine. tongue

Given that one of my favorite things about Constantine in the comics is his interactions with superheroes and how he has zero respect for them, I'd actually love it if he crossed over (if briefly, I don't want massive crossovers here) with Arrow or Flash and just scoffed at the two of them running around fighting crime in their silly little costumes.

Because trenchcoats, frumpy shirts, and teeny tiny wool red ties aren't silly at all. Especially not with a cigarette and bleached hair, luv.

I would root for anyone to pick it up but I especially like the idea that Fox might take it to have him show up on Lucifer. Then there'd also be a possibility of his showing up in Gotham.

Really, this was the only present-day supernatural show that I could tolerate. Alan Moore makes me break the First Commandment, because I worship the man. I know that he doesn't like live-action adaptations of his work, but I do.

Zed's actress is pretty... terrible. The episode with the dope addict who gave himself for the cause left me as an emotional wreck for a day and a half. That's good TV. I don't care what the powers that be say.

NBC's 'Constantine' Is Now Dead According To Executive Producer Daniel Cerone

I promised I'd share news when I had it — sadly, that news is not good. The cast and writers of Constantine are being released from their contracts. The studio tried to find a new home for the show, for which we're forever grateful, but those efforts didn't pan out. I'm sorry, I wasn't provided any information on the attempts to sell the show elsewhere. All I can report is that the show is over.

Many ingredients went into this TV series. From the dedicated cast that breathed these characters to life, led by Matt Ryan as the comic-made-flesh embodiment of John Constantine, to the exceptionality talented crew that put unreal images on screen, to the original Hellblazer writers and artists who gifted us a universe.

As a general principle, writers don't choose a writing career to achieve stardom. Whatever demons or insecurities drove them to find freedom of expression through written words generally keeps writers comfortably obscure behind their words. Nor do people choose writing as a means to financial freedom. I'd venture to guess that most who set out to write professionally never receive a paycheck for their hopeful scribbles or key strokes.

In fact, nobody I know ever chose a writing career — it chose them. You write because that's what you do. Like breathing, it just happens and you have to do it and you just hope that someday somebody out there notices what you're trying to say.

If that's the dream of writers, than the writers of Constantine lived the dream, because we're leaving behind wild and passionate fans who believe in and were moved by what we tried to do. To leave such a significant, dedicated and active fan base on the table — that's the real sadness. You all deserve many years of the series we set out to make, and we're disappointed that we couldn't deliver that to you. The good news is that Constantine will live on for years in many more forms. But our time as caretakers has ended.

Thank you for letting us in.

Daniel Cerone

I agree it's a real shame to see this show go after only 1 season.

This was a sorrow.

I'm making a note here, much depressed.

It's hard to overstate my disappointment.

Damn. Along with Community's initial cancellation this is my personal Firefly.

I'm hoping for it to be Un-Canceled...to the point that if it were to be, I am calling it right now.

Even if they kill the show does that mean doing away with the character? I can easily see him becoming a recurring character either with the same or a different actor on Lucifer.
