Executive producer Daniel Cerone has once again spoke out with regards to rumors that ‘Constantine’ is facing the axe.
In a statement to Comicbook.com, Cerone admitted that season two is “a long shot” – but insisted that no final decision had been made.
“I just received confirmation from the corporate offices at NBC,” he said. “I was assured that Constantine has not been cancelled and our pitch meeting to discuss a potential second season remains on the books.
“By the way, this is a pitch meeting involving the president of Warner Bros and and the entertainment heads of NBC. Nobody at this incredibly busy time of the development season has time to waste taking pointless meetings.”
Cerone added that high production costs on the show will most likely be a factor that could count against a potential second season.
“While we marginally improved a tough time slot for NBC, we’re a very expensive show to produce,” he said.”A lot of NBC’s decision making will not doubt hinge on their new pilots and how they feel those new shows would fare as a companion piece to ‘Grimm’, versus a second season of ‘Constantine’.”
