'Constantine' season 2 cancelled, Warner Bros. looking for 'a new home'

The wait is over for "Constantine" as NBC has officially drawn its verdict: the TV series is no more. The network did not give the DC Comics-inspired series another round of Hellblazer action, breaking the hearts of fans who have worked with the cast and crew of the show to save it. 

"Constantine" had an average of 4.5 million viewers who tuned in to witness the detective's exploits. That equates to a 1.4 rating among adults aged 18 to 49 during its 10 p.m. airing. "Grimm" has 6.3 million and a 1.8 rating. 

The series aired its 13th and final episode in February but NBC did not pick up the show for a new season. It, however, suggested that the show's fate was hanging in the balance and that renewal was still a possibility. The long-awaited pitch for season 2 was then made, but unfortunately, the network was not swayed. 

The fight is far from over though. Series creator Daniel Cerone is encouraging fans to "stay active" as Warner Bros. is "working hard to find Constantine [a] new home." There were rumors about its potential jump to SyFy (NBC's corporate sibling network) but the buzz turned out to be false. 

Now, fans are eyeing The CW, which runs thriving DC Comics-based series and John Constantine would fit right in. Actor Stephen Amell, who plays Arrow in his eponymous series, has expressed his desire to work with the supernatural detective as well. 

In one tweet, the actor called out networks and Netflix to step up and take the pleasure of retelling the story of Constantine. He then gave his word that if the show gets picked up, he will guest star.

In another tweet, Amell expressed his excitement for a Constantine and Queen mash-up, with actor Matt Ryan, who plays Constantine, tweeting back saying, "it would be a real pleasure to explore these guys dynamic."

"We intend to make something happen. Don't blink," Cerone tweeted to fans as he rallied them to "make some noise and build fans."
