NBC's 'Constantine' Spoilers: Will Michael James Shaw's Papa Midnite Fight For "The Devil's Vinyl?" [WATCH]
After making its official premiere, Constantine now arrives with its third episode on NBC. Now that audiences have met actor Matt Ryan as John Constantine, will Michael James Shaw's Para Midnite fight the DC Comics anti-hero for "The Devil's Vinyl?"
Based on the Hellblazer title from Vertigo Comics, Constantine (Ryan) is an occult detective, ladies man, and con artist all put together. Though he wants to do some good in his life, the troubled anti-hero walks a fine line between sorcery and obsession. In his trademark fashion, Constantine steps out into the world wearing a white dress shirt, a faded trench coat, and carries a box full of cigarettes in his pocket.
As we mentioned before, we met actress Angélica Celaya as Mary "Zed" Martin, who appeared in the closing moments of the pilot. In the comics, all the women in John's life always end up leaving him, or end up dead. We are very excited to see how this Latina beauty goes toe-to-toe with Ryan.
Hitflix got the scoop on Papa Midnite's introduction to audiences in the third episode. In the comics, Midnite and Constantine switch from time to time, as bitter allies to deadly adversaries. Now Constantine face to face Midnite if he intends to save a young woman and her family from sinister forces.
James explains the look and wardrobe he wanted to bring to his role, "The textures and the actual cuts of the clothing, they contradict each other sometimes, but it creates this very...It's not like a pimp or it's not like a gangster, but it's kinda posh and a little Hugh Hefner-esque, but still with that grit."
