Today, fans were given a gift when it was announced that Matt Ryan will return to the trench coat as John Constantine on the fourth season of Legends of Tomorrow as a series regular.

Constantine To Return On Arrow!
While the TCA's are taking place this week (Today, The CW was presenting) we've received some awesome news. The grave to the recently canceled NBC series Constantine is no longer fresh, but today we've learned that Matt Ryan will reprise his role as John Constantine! Ryan will guest star in one episode of the fourth season of Arrow. Its something that's been in the works for quite some time, leading back to while Constantine's future was still in the air and Arrow star Stephen Amell went to Twitter to make an effort to save the series.
'Teen Titans' Pilot Deal In Works
Cable network TNT is working on a deal to produce a pilot based on the teenage super team, Teen Titans from DC that would be called 'Titans.' Akiva Goldsman (Fringe, A Beautiful Mind, I Am Legend) is writer/executive producer on the project with Warner Horizon Television producing. This would add the increasing large number of DC Comics television adaptations that are already in production. Arrow, The Flash, Gotham, and Constantine will be airing soon, along with the rumored Supergirl pilot that's being shopped around.
Supergirl TV Series Coming Soon?
This will be the year of Comic Book TV shows. We've had shows in the past, notably Wonder Woman, The Incredible Hulk, and Smallville. More recently we have Arrow and Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. but this year we will see Gotham, Constantine, and The Flash join the fold. Netflix will premiere five shows available to stream from Marvel Television, Daredevil being the first in 2015 and then Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Iron Fist and eventually The Defenders. And now we're getting word that DC is shopping the idea of a Supergirl television show in the near future.
Most Anticipated Fall Show
Constantine Trailer Offers DC Easter Egg
'Constantine' Gets a Trailer!
DC fans have a lot to look forward to this fall. Not only is Arrow returning to the CW for its third season, but The Flash is joining the CW line-up. Over on FOX, the world of Gotham will hit the small screen. And not to be outdone in the battle of network geeks, NBC has Constantine, primed and ready for the airwaves.
Batman on Television
The Dark Knight graced our televisions screens way back in the 1960’s with Adam West starring as our Caped Crusader. (And you’ll soon be able to own the collection on DVD.) Since then, he hasn’t been on television in a live action series. Due to Warner Brothers or DC Comics not wanting there to be any discrepancies in the story telling between the big screen and what may get produced on television, we’ve been deprived the glory of seeing The Bat on television. But should this really be a concern anymore?
