Teleplay by: Daniel Cerone
October 24, 2014 (2014-10-24)2968494.28[4]
Following a botched exorcism which caused a demon that he conjured to murder a girl named Astra, John Constantine, a self-proclaimed exorcist and master of the dark arts, is damned to Hell, and now recovers in an asylum. Constantine receives a supernatural warning there, which leads him to Liv Aberdine, who is unaware of a mysterious threat. Constantine gives her a pendant that belonged to her father Jasper Winters and allows her to see trapped souls all around her, and John introduces her to scrying, the art of learning where demonic activity will occur. He learns the identity of the demon chasing Aberdine, Furcifer, who draws strength from electricity. Constantine enlists help from Ritchie Simpson, a pill-popping, paranoid metaphysics professor, who refuses until Constantine threatens to name him as a witness to the botched exorcism. They manage to trap Furcifer and send him back to Hell. Liv later decides to leave town, but gives the scry map and the pendant to John to continue his work. He admits scaring her off on purpose, believing that exorcising is not for everybody. Elsewhere, a woman furiously creates many drawings of Constantine.

When a fresh drop of blood appears on the scry map, highlighting a small mining town in Western Pennsylvania, Constantine learns that several miners have been mysteriously killed. He deduces that these were caused by Coblynau, normally benign spirits of deceased miners who are being summoned and forced to kill. In town John bumps into Zed Martin, a woman with a mysterious past, and who recognizes him as the man who has been appearing in her visions. Constantine realizes that she has psychic powers, and uses her in his investigation of the town. They discover that the source of the curse is a Romani woman who summoned the spirits to punish the mine bosses and kill her husband. After the woman is killed by the spirits she summoned, Zed agrees to join in John's fight against the coming evil.

John and Zed travel to Chicago, in search of Memphis bluesman Willy Cole's record, known as the Acetate. Legend has it that the Acetate contains the voice of the devil himself, which was recorded on when the devil came to claim Cole's soul during a recording session. The record is known to slowly freeze things on contact and anyone who hears the song dies while those who are near it and weak-willed become possessed. John and Zed also learn that Papa Midnite, a voodoo priest, wants the record to avoid having his soul sent to Hell, and that Midnite's hired men, having become possessed themselves, also want to broadcast the song to as many people as possible. After preventing them from playing it on a radio station, Constantine is able to send it to Hell where it belongs with Papa Midnite swearing vengeance afterwards.

Gary Lester (Jonjo O'Neill), an old friend of John's, found a boy in Sudan carved with Containment Patterns and successfully exorcised the demon into a container. Gary brought it to the US to take it to John. Held by Customs, the demon was released. John identifies it as a hunger demon from the news; Zed gets more information from Gary and sketches out a vision that John believes he can use to contain the demon for good. He meets with Nommo. Together they use a very powerful psychotropic substance to enter an altered state of consciousness and find out how the hunger demon, named Mnemoth, can be stopped. It seems the only way is to trap it in a human body which will slowly die along with the demon. Knowing this, John takes Gary to trap the demon. While eventually aware of John's intentions, Gary agrees to be the human container so that his life would finally find meaning and atonement. After successfully performing the ritual, John then takes him to the millhouse, where he holds Gary's hand while Mnemoth tortures Gary from the inside as Manny solemnly stands ready to guide Gary's soul to the afterlife.

Production

The series was developed by Daniel Cerone and David S. Goyer, with the pilot episode directed by Neil Marshall.[17] The show remains more faithful to the source material than the 2005 film, although on-screen depiction of Constantine's chain smoking habit will be absent due to broadcast television restrictions[18][19] (the network eventually becomes more lenient and John is shown smoking on screen in later episodes). Additionally, the character's bisexuality will not be referenced on screen,[20] with Cerone saying, "In those comic books, John Constantine aged in real time. Within this tome of three decades [of comics] there might have been one or two issues where he's seen getting out of bed with a man. So [maybe] 20 years from now? But there are no immediate plans." This was met with criticism from the LGBTQ community.[21]

Griffiths was originally cast as the female lead Liv Aberdine, the daughter of a late friend of John's called Jasper Winters, who comes to discover that she has the ability of seeing the supernatural world among us. She teams up with Constantine to fight the demons who have targeted her and learn more about her late father.[2] Griffiths was dropped after Goyer and Cerone decided to take the series in a different creative direction.[22] The comic character Zed was chosen as a replacement for the female lead.[22] Angélica Celaya was later announced to fill the role. Some of Griffiths' final scenes from the pilot were reshot, explaining why she does not join Constantine in his adventures as originally intended.[3] Both Goyer and Cerone have talked about a possible return for Liv.[23]

In November 2014, NBC announced that they would not be ordering more episodes past the initial order of 13 for the first season, though a second season renewal was not ruled out.[24] In February 2015, Cerone reconfirmed that the series had not been cancelled, and that the producers would pitch their ideas for an additional season to NBC in May 2015.[25]

Although no official announcement has been made regarding the future of Constantine, it has been factually stated by Bill Gorman of TV By The Numbers that "In recent memory, every Fall premiere rookie show intended for a full season that was ended after 13 or fewer episodes (in a non WGA strike season) was canceled."[26]

Critical response

The review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reported a 72% critic approval rating with an average rating of 6.2/10 based on 46 reviews. The website's consensus reads, "Constantine's creepy atmosphere, high-stakes action, and splendid special effects combine with a welcome touch of humor to overcome narrative flaws and present a version of the title character that's close to his comics counterpart."[40] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned a score of 53 out of 100 based on 25 reviews, indicating "mixed or average reviews".[41]

Web series

DC Entertainment has released a clay-stop motion animation web series called John Con Noir. The web series is developed by Cool Town Creations to support the petition for the television series to be renewed for a second season.[42][43]

Matt Ryan reprises the role of John Constantine as the character tries to find his own program's creators and showrunners, David S. Goyer and Daniel Cerone, after they go missing. If John does not succeed, then the NBC network will have no other choice but to cancel the program.

The first chapter was released on January 16, 2015 on the DC Comics official website and YouTube account, in addition to the mid-season premiere on NBC.[42]

Broadcast

Constantine airs simultaneously on Global in Canada.[44] In the United Kingdom, the series was acquired by Amazon Instant Video.[45]
