NBC has released a trailer for its new series “Constantine,” based on DC Comics’ “Hellblazer.” Matt Ryan (”Criminal Minds: Suspect Behavior”) stars as antihero John Constantine—an ex-conman turned supernatural detective out to save humanity from demonic forces.

Lucy Griffiths (“True Blood”) co-stars as the daughter of Constantine’s dead friend. She helps him fight evil after he rescues her from demons. Also along for the ride is Harold Perrineau (”LOST”) as Constantine’s guardian angel Manny. Neil Marshall (The Descent) is attached to direct the premiere episode.

“Constantine” will air Friday nights at 10 pm on NBC.
