Despite his TV series getting cancelled after only one season, John Constantine is getting a second chance at television during Arrow <\/em>Season 4. Matt Ryan will reprise his role in the episode \u201cHaunted\u201d, and fans (including me) caught a quick glimpse of him snuffing out one of his many trademark cigarettes in the Season 4 trailer. Although he\u2019s only really <\/em>confirmed for one episode, Constantine\u2019s inclusion on the hit CW series shouldn\u2019t be looked at as a mere cameo. On the contrary, executive producer March Guggenheim say it will be a major role for the chain-smoking occultist.<\/p>\n

Guggenheim made it clear to SuperHeroHype<\/a> that Constantine\u2019s Arrow<\/em> appearance not only won\u2019t feel forced, but that he\u2019ll fit well in this DC TV universe. As Guggenheim explained:<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen you see him in the show, honestly it feels like we\u2019re doing a\u00a0Constantine<\/em>\/Arrow<\/em>\u00a0crossover, and it\u2019s so exciting\u2026 We\u2019re just really glad we got the chance to extend Matt Ryan\u2019s run as Constantine by at least one more hour of television. I think you\u2019ll see he fits very neatly into our universe. It never feels forced, it feels right. Stephen\u2019s on screen vibe with Matt is just very natural, it\u2019s as if these guys had been working together forever.\u201d<\/p>\n

As noted prior, John will drop by Star City in the episode \u201cHaunted,\u201d and he\u2019ll help Team Arrow deal with the fallout from Sara Lance being revived from the dead via the Lazarus Pit, while also furthering this season\u2019s exploration of magic. Crossover comment aside, it is still unclear whether the John Constantin that fans will see on Arrow<\/em> is the same one we saw on the short-lived NBC series or if he\u2019s an alternate incarnation of the character akin to how Judi Dench played two different versions of M in the James Bond films.<\/p>\n

Regardless of how many episodes does Constantine gets his hands on, it sounds like Ryan and Stephen Amell have great chemistry together, so Constantine and Oliver Queen\u2019s interactions should be fun to watch.<\/p>\n

Stay tuned in for further details on John Constantine and Arrow!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
