In an effort to release more animated films that don't star Batman, Superman, or any member from the Justice League, DC and Warner Bros. have announced Constantine: City of Demons. This will feature the first five episodes of the Constantine CW Seed series and an additional hour of original material, which is a nice touch.
Like The Killing Joke film before it (but hopefully better) this will be an R-rated animated film so you might want to put the kids to sleep before watching this. Constantine has always been a character who works better in a mature setting so making this an adult-only viewing experience was a smart move.
The film's plot revolves around Chas' daughter Trish, whose soul has been captured by demons and it's up to John Constantine to save her. It sounds just like an episode of the live-action show, which should make fans of the short-lived series happy.
Here's the synopsis (via CBR):
Fans will be happy to know that Matt Ryan, the man who played the character in the brief live-action series and Legends of Tomorrow, will be reprising his role here. This isn't the first time Ryan has provided his voice for an animated Constantine, previously voicing him in the Justice League Dark animated film.
Constantine: City of Demons comes to Blu-Ray and digital outlets on October 9.
