Constantine 2: Next Chapter dives back into the dark, mystical universe, with Keanu Reeves returning as the cynical demon hunter John Constantine. The teaser trailer sets a somber tone, starting with Constantine walking through a desolate, rain-soaked city, cigarette in hand, while a haunting voiceover declares, “Hell isn’t done with me yet.”
We quickly learn that the fragile balance between Heaven and Hell is crumbling once again, pulling Constantine back into the deadly supernatural world he tried to leave behind. The trailer reveals that a new, powerful force has arisen — something far more dangerous than the demons and angels he’s faced before. The central threat seems to be the emergence of an ancient evil that predates both Heaven and Hell, something capable of tearing apart the fabric of reality itself.
Gabriel (Tilda Swinton), the fallen angel who once betrayed Constantine, returns with a pivotal role. The trailer hints at an uneasy truce between the two, with Gabriel seemingly seeking redemption. In one cryptic exchange, Constantine asks, “Why should I trust you?” to which Gabriel replies, “Because this time, I fear what’s coming more than you do.” Their dynamic is a core focus of the teaser, blending distrust with reluctant cooperation.
Lucifer (Peter Stormare) also returns, still harboring a grudge against Constantine for tricking him in the first film. In one scene, Lucifer mockingly grins as he says, “You meddle too much, John. Now you’ve broken something that can’t be fixed.” This line hints at Constantine’s actions causing irreversible damage, likely connected to the growing threat that could consume both the mortal world and the afterlife.
The trailer introduces a new character, a mysterious young woman named Esme, who possesses unique supernatural abilities. She appears to be tied to the ancient evil threatening the world, and Constantine is seen reluctantly taking her under his wing. The two share several tense moments, with Esme pushing Constantine’s boundaries, and Constantine warning her about the dangers of meddling with the forces of Hell.
The teaser builds to an intense montage of chaotic scenes — Constantine battling demons in alleyways, navigating collapsing dimensions, and performing forbidden rituals. It ends with a chilling shot of Constantine, standing before an infernal gate, muttering, “Let’s finish this.”
Constantine 2: Next Chapter promises to be a thrilling, action-packed continuation of the first film, blending occult horror with Constantine’s trademark gritty attitude.
