I don't mind him not being British, after all, we managed to get Charles Xavier and Magneto when neither one of them should speak the old Queen's English. And then there's Loki... so I'm happy to let this one slide:D

I'm not sure we're on the same page here. The show has an actor for the part and they've done the pilot and the actor is Welsh and he is talking with his natural voice.

Okay, epic facepalm from me, I read the OP wrong and somehow ended up assuming the TV show actor was going to be American. My bad
really liked the first episode, the hard bitten PI schtick from constantine is pretty funny, he's seen it all and all that, just the right side of giving a damn
Deadline report that NBC's Constantine show has gained a trio of impressive new cast members. Joining Matt Ryan as the titular foul mouthed occultist will be Lucy Griffiths as Liv,
I don't think they should be bound by nationality for a character, they should be able to do as they see fit and best for their interpretation.
Okay, then Constantine should at least be portrayed as British, and make some attempt to look like the character. It was really annoying that Keanu Reeves couldn't be bothered to dye his hair, or put on a blonde wig. Imagine how fans of Superman would feel if here were to be played by Hugh Lawrie, with a British accent and ginger wig! Surely, getting the character as authentic as possible is vital to making the new version the success that Mr Reeves version wasn't?

already intrigued
as well as his accent and his GUUUUURNING smiley face
also the little effects and how they look onscreen
He is British though, Welsh in fact.
I don't mind him doing an accent then:p:D
I 'think' he's doing a Manchester accent in the show. He certainly sounds a bit Liam Gallager
Didn't realise that it was Lucy Griffiths though. I thought she looked familiar

Nah, he's using his normal Welsh voice.

Haha, no worries. I figured you didn't know about the actor anyway so it's all good.

She's been written out after the Pilot.
She was the worst part of the trailer
She was wooden in Robin hood and True blood. I am sure she would be worse in here. Plus her american accent was terrible.
