We haven’t seen the last of Matt Ryan as Constantine. Although the series wasn’t picked up for a second season, Ryan’s not quite finished playing the DC Comics character John Constantine.

The CW announced during the TCA press tour that Ryan will return as Constantine for episode five of Arrow season four titled “Haunted.”

“We are thrilled to have Matt Ryan reprise the role of John Constantine on an upcoming episode of Arrow. Matt is an incredibly talented actor and his portrayal of this beloved character was always something we admired. The introduction of magic and mysticism on the show this season has provided a truly organic opportunity for us to bring John Constantine to Arrow and the CW’s DC universe. It will be a well-deserved tip of the hat to all the Constantine fans who were so incredibly supportive of that series,” said executive producer Marc Guggenheim.

The Plot: “John Constantine is a weather-worn exorcist and expert on the supernatural and the occult. He is a detective, magician, and a hunter of demons, and will provide critical support to Oliver (Stephen Amell) when arrows aren’t enough.”

Taking to Twitter, Ryan also confirmed the news, saying, “The rumors are true. John is coming to Star City.”
