John Constantine
Character » John Constantine appears in 1561 issues.
John Constantine, the Hellblazer, is a working-class magician, occult detective and a golden-tongued con man.

A roguish counterculture anti-hero, Constantine is also a strident humanist driven by a heartfelt desire to defend mankind from the forces of evil.
My Casting Choice For John Constantine
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).
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.
I think Neil Patrick Harris can do John.
never in a million years
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.
Nah, not feeling it.

Me neither.
@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.
he's great though he might be to good looking imo
i made a fan trailer a while back to see what paul bettany would be like as john.
i'd like to see matt ryan get another shot at the role, though. even though constantine is cancelled. or david thewlis. his role in the movie "naked " is practically his audition tape for john. even the character's first name is johnny.
