The CW has released the promo for "Daddy Darhkest", the upcoming tenth episode of Legends of Tomorrow's third season.

The promo teases the official Legends debut of John Constantine (Matt Ryan), who briefly appeared in the tail end of tonight's midseason finale. After saving the soul of Sara Lance/White Canary (Caity Lotz) in Arrow's fourth season, John wants her to return the favor, by helping him with a particularly tricky exorcism.

Ever since Constantine was first brought into the Arrowverse, fans have been eagerly anticipating an appearance on Legends. And now, as was first announced earlier this year, they will soon get their wish.

"Having Matt Ryan reprise his iconic — dare we say legendary — role of John Constantine on Legends is something that [executive producer] Marc [Guggenheim] and I have been working toward since season one, and now the stars have finally aligned." executive producer Phil Klemmer revealed earlier this year. "While we are working to finish our 2017 Arrow-verse crossover, which is no joke the most ambitious bit of network TV that four shows have ever had the audacity and insanity to endeavor, we were looking for a way to make an equally exciting 2018 return. That's how we came up with Matt Ryan."

According to early updates, the episode will not only show Constantine smoking (a long-standing qualm fans had with the NBC show), but will also fully portray his bisexuality. And judging by the promo, it will also provide some pretty awesome dynamics between John (a.k.a. "Trenchcoat") and the rest of the team.

Legends of Tomorrow will return in February of 2018.
