It’s official: “John Wick 5” is happening! Following the success of the previous installments of the action movie franchise, Lionsgate confirmed that they have greenlit a fifth movie. What caught my attention about this news is that the announcement came just weeks after “John Wick 4” was confirmed, which means Keanu Reeves will have a busy schedule filming both movies back-to-back.
According to Deadline, “John Wick 4” and “John Wick 5” will be directed by Chad Stahelski and written by Shay Hatten and Michael Finch. Reeves will reprise his role as the titular character, a retired hitman who finds himself pulled back into the criminal underworld.
While there aren’t many details on the plot yet, it’s safe to say that fans of the franchise can expect more of the intense and stylish action sequences that have become a hallmark of the series.
It’s worth noting that the “John Wick” movies have been a commercial and critical success since the first film was released in 2014. The franchise has grossed over $584 million worldwide, and Reeves’ performance in the role has been praised by audiences and critics alike.
Overall, the announcement of “John Wick 5” is exciting news for fans of the series, as well as for action movie enthusiasts in general. The franchise has proven to be a reliable source of thrilling entertainment, and it’s good to know that there’s more to come.
