Alright, this is my vision of a new Constantine series, called Hellblazer. It will feature a traditional, English speaking, cynical John Constantine.

Up first...

JOHN CONSTANTINE
Hugh Laurie

,


First, to all those who will argue that he's too old, I should point out that John is one of the few characters who actually ages in the comic book universe. Laurie is 50 years old, and the perfect actor to play the curmudgeon, I mean, just watch House and you'll know he's a perfect fit!


ZATANNA ZATARA
Amanda Peet

,


Whaaa? Zatanna? Noooo. Well, yeah. She was once a lover of Constantine's. She would be great to have in this film, so that we'll at least see her on screen, if not for a spin-off....?

And Amanda Peet is a wonderful actress, who has a quick tongue and quicker wits to keep pace with Laurie's Constantine.


CHAS CHANDLER
Jim Sturgess

,


Constantine's closest friend and driver. Sturgess would be able to own the role as John's "apprentice".


PAPA MIDNITE
Wesley Snipes

,


Snipes has the attitude, the charisma, and the looks to play the New York nightclub owner, and frequent opponent of John's.


FIRST OF THE FALLEN
Anthony Hopkins

,


The First of the Fallen, the first angel to fall from God's grace, he is especially interested in the soul of Constantine. Hopkins has that menacing, creepy appeal that would be ideal for the fallen angel.


GARY LESTER
Steve Buscemi




Constantine's oldest friend. He is attacked by the demon Mnemoth and needs John's help. Buscemi looks like Lester, and has the twitchy acting style to portray him.


Like I said, I'll try to have a story up here within the next few weeks, so pay attention lol! in the meantime, praise, criticisms are welcome!


*long live peace, love, and rock 'n roll!*

TOAD @ Um i'd rather STING than HUGH for the title role dude!

Can't see HUGH at all (not saying he can't pull it off lol, might just take me a while to see him for the part), love the rest though, good stuff!

ROCK 'N' ROLL!!!

Laurie is an interesting choice and I cant see it, but thats just coz its so fresh.
No to your Chas though- John and Chas should be the same age! Remember Keanu and LeBeouf? Wrong!!!

Interesting cast!

Some unconventional choices!

Pretty good all-in-all!

I think Laurie's a little too old for
the part, though!

Mmm,. Interesting choices no doubt. I guess Laurie could pull it off but even though Constantine ages a bit in the story he's still only supposed to be pushing 40 not 50 isn't he? Like the Zatanna choice..don't know who the dude you picked for Chas is but he;s too young as invalesname said. Snipes isn't a very good actor. Watch anything except Blade actually and he pretty much sucks. Midnite was already played by a much better actor in Constantine, Djmon Hounsou. Still, pretty good cast.

@RorMachine, yeah i thought the only bright spot in the original Constantine was Hounsou, but since this was a recast.... but if he hadn't already played Midnite, Hounsou was deff my first choice.

Don't mind some of the cast. I'd prefer anybody as Chas over Shia LaBeouf. Honestly, though, I'd rather see Kevin McKidd play COnstantine, because he looks the part and, if you've seen Rome you know he can act.


And I think Idris Elba would be amazing as Papa Midnite

I think you've actually given me the idea of doing my own Constantine fan cast. Thanks!

@Conan, yeah np. I really like McKidd -- never thought of him before! thats a really good idea!

Constantine - Paul Bettany, Rob Carlysle (does a mean scouser) or Sean Bean... McKidd is too earnest... not cocky enough.

Papa Midnight... if you actually include him... he's a lame character in the books... Iris Elba is a good shout.

Chas Chandler... he's never an apprentice that I understand in the comics... I've read the first 150 issues or so and he's never once been more than a big London guy that drives a cab and can fight a bit. so to that end ideally I'd like a younger Ray Winston but maybe Will Scully... the fella that plays the former SAS in "Love, Honour & Obey"

First of the fallen... actually thought Stormare did a great job in Constantine. would also quite like to see Ian McShane give it a go.

as for female characters I'd quite like to see Chantinelle (Ellie) and Angelina Jolie gets my vote there.
