Seriously!!! As per TV Guide:
I admit it. I'm fan-girling. I think John Constantine in the Flarrowverse would work brilliantly. OK, yes, this is one episode. But good things begin with just one episode.
An Arrow and Constantine crossover: When NBC axed Constantine earlier this year, Arrow star Stephen Amell proposed the idea of a potential crossover between the two shows in an effort to save it. Now that idea has come to fruition, because Matt Ryan, who starred as DC Comics character John Constantine in the short-lived drama, will reprise his role on Arrow's fifth episode, titled "Haunted." Pedowitz gave credit to Warner Bros. for making the crossover happen. "Luckily, one of our parent companies, Warner Bros., was a production company for Constantine," he said. "We worked with them and it's a great one-shot episode."
Arrow executive producer Mark Guggenheim released a statement following the announcement. "We are thrilled to have Matt Ryan reprise the role of John Constantine on an upcoming episode of Arrow," he said. "Matt is an incredibly talented actor and his portrayal of this beloved character was always something we admired. The introduction of magic and mysticism on the show this season has provided a truly organic opportunity for us to bring John Constantine to Arrow and the CW's DC universe. It will be a well-deserved tip of the hat to all the Constantine fans who were so incredibly supportive of that series."
