A Constantine 2 film has reportedly been in development for some time now, and recently, DC Studios co-head James Gunn opened up on where the film currently stands.

What did James Gunn say about Constantine 2?

Speaking to BobaTalks in a recent interview, Gunn was asked about the film, and specifically comments that star Keanu Reeves made earlier this month about a new draft of the film existing. Gunn said that discussion on the movie has been happening “on and off,” but that he hasn’t seen any such script.

“I’ve discussed it on and off. I discussed it with Keanu,” said Gunn. “So, it’s…I think that’s a great group of guys. I like all those people a lot. I think they’re talented, but I have not read any script yet.”

The comments from Gunn come after Reeves confirmed that the creative team behind the movie was still trying to make it happen. Reeves said they planned to bring it to DC Studios, where the movie would presumably be made as an “Elseworlds” project outside of the overarching DC Universe.

The untitled sequel will once again be directed by Lawrence, with producer Akiva Goldsman writing the script. In a previous interview, the filmmaker admitted that one of the reasons why the project is taking a long time to move forward is due to the “regime changes” that Warner Bros. and DC Studios have gone through this recent years.

Earlier this year, the creative team received approval from DC Studios to go ahead with writing a script for the sequel. According to Reeves, the story will take place in the “same world” as the first installment, with the titular character set to be “tortured even more.”

The 2005 movie was loosely based on the DC and Vertigo Comics occult detective character created by Alan Moore and Steve Bissette. It centered around John Constantine, a warlock and exorcist who helps people with supernatural problems. Besides Reeves, the adaptation also starred Rachel Weisz as Angela Dodson, Shia LaBeouf as Chas Kramer, Tilda Swinton as Gabriel, Djimon Hounsou as Papa Midnite, and Peter Stormare as Lucifer.
