I have to say for the record that while this isn't the movie's fault in any way and I know they don't have control over the marketing, seeing "#skwad" in those tweets makes me super angry.

Dunno if I'd want the DCCU to take on King Shark, their version of Killer Croc looks like poo poo so they'd probably gently caress him up as well.

The TV Flash already did a great version of King Shark (even if his characterization was kinda lame)

I read Jared Lito didn't break character while filming. Will Smith claimed so much so, he still hasn't met Jared. This movie is gonna be poo poo.

Do people actually believe this? I know it keeps coming up in interviews but it sounds like a pile of bullshit marketing. Like how Ledger was so 'caught up' in the darkness of his Joker role. Which turned out to have very little truth. If media is willing to exploit a man's death for ticket sales, I doubt they'd think twice about playing up rumors of Leto's antics.

Leto is an ultra method actor and has refused to break character for earlier roles, so there's probably some element of truth to his on-set antics. But there's at least an equal amount of hype now that the Joker has become one of those iconic screen roles in the same way that people talk about the new James Bond or whatever.

He's become a bit of a self parody in recent years, but if he puts his ego aside he's an extremely talented and charismatic actor. That said I'm also a little worried they hired him to play Will Smith playing Deadshot, instead of just Deadshot.

Satan describing his plans for Constantine in hell as a "theme park full of red delights" always felt wonderful to me. Peter Stromare was such a good devil.

That bit where her character loses his angelicness and Constantine punches him and it just takes him a second to discover what pain is. Perfect.

The Cameo

Someone once suggested that Constantine is entirely saved by the stunt casting - every time the movie begins to feel bogged down by the plot and chasing the MacGuffin, John meets up with some character actor who's enjoyably chewing the scenery, reinfecting the movie with some life for a bit, until the plot becomes leaden again and then - BAM - another character actor, up through the finish where they let Stormare hang loose as Satan and give everyone a quick scene of him and Tilda hamming it up.

In other words someone recognized that while Keanu is kind of perfect for a John Constantine type and Weisz is as capable as any woman to inject the role with some gravitas, they knew the plot was leading the characters too much (in an Akiva Goldsman script?! What a surprise!) and used the casting of these supporting roles as counterweight since they couldn't rewrite the script at that point.

I read an 'article' with the same theory, but based it on some lightning in the SS trailer looking like the lightning that shows up when the Flash uses his powers.
