So, I’ve just returned to rainy ‘ol Ireland after a lovely break in Disneyland Paris where it was sunny and warm and I’m feeling a little down…

Then I get this story to write. Which picked me up no end.

It seems that the people behind Arrow are still hoping to #SaveConstantine after all!

With Arrow and Flash still delivering the goods and Legends of Tomorrow coming, it looks like the CW and DC are determined to make their TV universe a massive and varied thing.

Arrow Executive producer Wendy Mericle has said that Matt Ryan’s Constantine is still very much on their mind: “Yeah, we really want to do it. It’s something we’ve been talking to DC about and it’s just a question of some political things, but also the actor’s schedule. We’re trying to work it out, but we don’t know 100 percent if it’s going to happen.”

Then, the clinker, she added: “But we’re really optimistic and we would love to have him.”

Well our thoughts on this team-up are no secret after Arrow himself Stephen Amell said the plan was to take Constantine into the series as an expert on the Lazarus Pit… whatever the capacity, we love that it may still be possible to make this happen.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
