Hell boy.

Also new today is the first teaser for Constantine. Everything about this trailer looks pretty solid, except, alas, for the title character. I'm not a Keanu-hater by any means, but he's not playing John Constantine here, not even close. Constantine is a hard-drinking, chain-smoking, trenchcoat-wearing Brit. Keanu is, well, Keanu. The differences are palpable.

Ohhhh, I don't know about this. I don't know about this AT ALL. I am NOT FEELING the Crucifix Revolver, no sir I am not...

It's gonna hurt to watch one of my favorite characters in all of fiction be squandered, isn't it?

Yeah, I can't for the life of me figure out why they went with Keanu here. It's not like he's much of a draw. Some of the atmospherics look decent, but I'm definitely not getting a Hellblazer vibe.
