Keanu Reeves’ superhero film finds a new streaming home with 46% on Rotten Tomatoes

Fans of Keanu Reeves are desperate to see him join a superhero franchise, be it Marvel Cinematic Universe or DC Universe, and there are a plethora of roles that the actor can easily play, but that day has not come yet. Nevertheless, fans have reason to rejoice, because the John Wick Cult classic of the actor DC film Constantine is coming soon to Prime Video, where it has found a new home, reports CBR.




Led by Francis Lawrence In his directorial debut, the film followed cynical exorcist John Constantine (Reeves) who has literally been through hell. Things take a turn when he helps police officer Angela Dodson investigate the suspected suicide of her identical twin sister, and the two become embroiled in a supernatural conspiracy involving both demonic and angelic forces. While the film received mixed reviews at the time, it gained cult status over the years thanks to Reeves’ brilliant portrayal of the demon hunter, the film’s cheesy mood, and Lawrence’s vision.

The film grossed $230.9 million worldwide, against a production budget of between $70 and $100 million, making it barely profitable for the studio. It has an approval rating of 46 percent on Rotten Tomatoes. The film also cast Rachel Weisz as LAPD detective Angela Dodson, Shia LaBeouf as Konstantin’s apprentice Chas Kramer, Tilda Swinton as Gabriel, Djimon Hounsou as Papa Midnite, Peter Stormare like Lucifer and many more.

producer Akiva Goldsman previously gave Collider an update on the script, saying, “It’s going well. I’m writing a script for Constantine 2. It’s good. I hope to have a script for my partners soon.” When asked about the script’s possible R rating, he said, “Oh, I can’t say.
