Goyer, who of course has co-scripted and/or worked on the stories for the Dark Knight trilogy as well as Man of Steel and its upcoming sequel -- not to mention many other comics related projects -- will write the Constantine pilot with The Mentalist’s Daniel Cerone for Warner Bros. Television. John Constantine is one of the best known characters from the supernatural side of DC. Created by Alan Moore and Steve Bissette (for Swamp Thing), his solo book Hellblazer was a Vertigo mainstay, running for 300 issues. Constantine has also been a key figure in Justice League Dark, and let's not forget that Keanu Reeves even played him on the big screen at one point! The news follows today’s revelations about FOX’s upcoming Gotham TV series, which will reportedly be a Nolan-esque Batman origin story. The History of John Constantine Meanwhile, NBC has also ordered a pilot for a new procedural from Arrow's Greg Berlanti called Mysteries of Laura, which will be a “drama with a sharp sense of humor following a quirky female homicide detective who juggles high stakes crime as well as her ex-husband and a devilish set of twin boys.”
