It’s something that we’ve been talking about since we made ‘Constantine’ because we all loved it. So we’ve been talking about it, talking about it, talking about it. All the DC [properties], because Vertigo is part of DC, that sort of like the control of those properties got complicated with Warner Bros. with DC…
Ultimately, though, Lawrence clarified that the most crucial part of writing the sequel is actually acquiring“some sort of control” over this character.
