John Wick 5 – Franchise director on Keanu Reeves resurrecting his hitman

Keanu Reeves returned for an additional bloody and brutal outing as his unstoppable hitman earlier this yr in John Wick Chapter 4.

And following the movie’s field workplace success with over $430 million taken worldwide, followers have been questioning if John Wick 5 is on the best way.

However, there is only one downside: John Wick died on the finish of Chapter 4. Or did he?

The hitman was proven clutching his wounds however we didn’t truly see him kick the bucket earlier than Winston and the Bowery King visited his grave.

Perhaps the concept of John Wick is lifeless and the person himself is alive elsewhere? It’s definitely a chance as franchise director Chad Stahelski spoke out in a brand new interview.

Speaking with the Happy Sad Confused podcast, the John Wick franchise director shared: “Yeah, Keanu and I have talked. Keanu, if you ask him right now, ‘Would you do John Wick 5?’ He’d be, ‘f**k yeah’. 

“But then he’d look and go, ‘Well, what is it? I have no f**king idea.’ That’s all. Believe me. It’s not like, ‘We’re going to figure it out today.’ 

“Like, look man, we’re going to do our other stuff for a little bit, but if I was driving in the car or if I was walking the dog and an idea hit me, within 30 seconds I’d be on the phone to Keanu and we’d be riffing.”

In the meantime, there are extra outings within the John Wick franchise coming sooner slightly than later.

First up is the Nineteen Seventies set The Continental miniseries, about Winston within the early days of the New York murderer’s lodge, which will probably be streaming on Amazon Prime in September.

Then there’s Ballerina, a spin-off film starring Ana de Armas set in between John Wick Chapters 3 and 4. Reeves will reprise his hitman on this movie set for launch on June 7, 2024.

Perhaps John Wick 5 would see a team-up between the 2 assassins?
