John Constantine Movie From Evil Dead Wrath Filmmaker is in Development at DC

DC Studios has enlisted the talents of Evil Dead Wrath writer-director Francis Galluppi to craft a John Constantine film for the studio, according to a report by Deadline. The project is still in its infancy, with no details on casting or Galluppi's potential directorial role revealed. John Constantine, a British detective with a penchant for the occult and magic, was originally created by Alan Moore, Steve Bissette, and John Totleben.

Keanu Reeves starred as the character in 2005's Constantine, sparking fan anticipation for a sequel, which Reeves confirmed in 2025. However, no updates have been made since then, leaving the nature of Galluppi's new script uncertain. Will it be a sequel to Reeves' version or a fresh take on the character? Meanwhile, Galluppi's Evil Dead Wrath is set for a theatrical release on April 7, 2028, as the seventh installment in the franchise and a prequel to 1981's The Evil Dead.
