John Wick 5: Very good news for the saga with Keanu Reeves!

I will come back ? won’t come back For months now, the team behind the John Wick franchise has been toying with the patience of its fans with a flurry of announcements about the 5th installment.

This time, everything seems to be moving forward and confirmed. As reported ComicBook, the team is launched. “We started working on the project when the writers’ strike started, and we returned as soon as the work was finished“The screenwriters’ strike ended at the end of September, after 146 days of mobilization.

John Wick 5 is therefore on the way, and even more so if other recent announcements are to be believed. In an interview with Inverse, Chad Stahelski revealed that the saga could continue…

“I have notebooks and notebooks full of 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 for John Wick. We have many ideas. We just don’t have the final story. I’m not interested in returning John Wick for the money.

Is this a character I like? Of course. As for the few John Wick movies, great. Keanu would do it again in a second if we had a good story. We leave that open. I know the studio will love it if we say we’re doing something else.“

For Chad Stahelski and Keanu Reeves, it’s all about the story. “Keanu and I are still interested in a sequel, but we’re leaving it up in the air to see if we have anything worth watching.

Second, we have a very enthusiastic studio, and not just financially motivated: they’re just interested in seeing what we can do. So they’ve been very kind to us about expanding this year,” he told the subjects of the franchise’s various spin-offs.

The director continues:Keanu and I went to them and said, “Look, we have ideas for the John Wick world, other characters that aren’t centered around John Wick. Are you interested?’ And they were very cool and said:

“Yes, we would be very interested in that.” Characters that weren’t in any of the movies that were left out because they just didn’t fit into our storyline, and some existing characters that we want to see in a different way.“

Is Keanu Reeves back?

We told you about it in a previous article, but franchise producer Basil Ivanyk told Collider last month that Keanu Reeves wanted to be there.Definitely“Killed at the End of John Wick: Chapter 4 and Making These Movies Destroyed It”physically and emotionally“.

“In the end, he always says, “I can’t do this anymore,” and we agree with him. The boy is only a shadow of his former self as he goes on and on. He said, “I definitely want to be killed at the end of this movie.” We said, “You know, we’re going to leave a little opening of 10%.”“
