Constantine has already gotten rid of one of its lead characters
Though the series premiere of Constantine is still set for Oct. 24, producers are already making some dramatic changes by stubbing out the character played by True Blood alum Lucy Griffiths, like a cigarette you won’t see anyone smoking. Griffiths had already starred in the pilot—and was featured prominently in the trailer—as Liv Aberdeen, daughter of one of the paranormal investigator’s old friends, and one of the show’s overarching plotlines was meant to follow her awakening to the supernatural, after a whole lot of quavering at the supernatural. But now Liv has been written out entirely, with the show replacing her with a character taken from the original Hellblazer comics: Zed, Constantine’s former lover and a powerful sorceress in her own right.
