@Jack Angel: I really wanted to use this head for photoshopping, because it looks more constantineish....but alas, it didn't fit with the body.

I could live with Daniel Craig, he's proved himself, but people don't realize Constantine isn't exactly "handsome" per se, he's just blond (sp).

Daniel Craig not only looks the part, he's a credible actor to

@pimsy: As much as I like Daniel Craig, I have to go with you on this one. Daniel Craig is in to good of a shape to play Constantine. Never thought I would say that someone was to built to play a comic book character.......

No, you can't have him, I need him to be Detective Chimp.

It has to be someone who can not just play a ladies man, but also an @$$hole, because that's what he is. I don't want to like that I like him in a movie, I want to hate that I am rooting for him.

I could live with Craig as Constantine, but as with most other comic characters, I would rather have some no-name in the role.

Am I the only one that thinks Guy Pearce would have been the perfect John Constantine ten years ago? I think he could still pull it off, mind you, just would have been been perfect slightly younger.
