The trailer for “Constantine 2” (2025) starring Keanu Reeves teases an atmospheric return to the dark, mystical world of John Constantine, the demon-hunting antihero. The visuals immediately evoke a sense of foreboding as we see Constantine, now older and more battle-worn, struggling with the consequences of his actions from the first film. The trailer hints at a world on the brink of an apocalyptic event, with supernatural forces more powerful than ever before.
The opening scenes show Constantine in a dilapidated church, seeking guidance but finding none. He’s still haunted by his past, both literally and figuratively, as we catch glimpses of familiar faces from the first film, including an ethereal vision of Rachel Weisz’s character, Angela Dodson. There’s a sense that Constantine’s sins have come back to torment him, with whispers of an old debt being called in.
The trailer introduces a new antagonist, a demonic entity that seems to have a personal vendetta against Constantine. Played by an as-yet-undisclosed actor, this new villain promises to be more terrifying and relentless than anything Constantine has faced before. The scenes flash between intense battles with otherworldly creatures and more grounded moments of Constantine wrestling with his inner demons.
A key element teased in the trailer is Constantine’s struggle to protect those he cares about, suggesting that this time, the stakes are not just his soul but the lives of others. There’s also a tantalizing hint of a larger battle between Heaven and Hell, with Constantine caught in the middle, once again playing the role of an unwilling savior.
The trailer closes with a powerful shot of Constantine lighting a cigarette, his eyes filled with determination as he faces an approaching horde of demonic figures, promising a dark and thrilling continuation of his story.
