“This milestone is a testament to the incredible work of Chad Stahelski and Keanu Reeves, along with Basil Iwanyk and Erica Lee, who have made it their mission to outdo themselves with each subsequent film in this franchise,” said Joe Drake, Chair of Lionsgate Motion Picture Group, in a statement. We are incredibly grateful to worldwide moviegoers for helping us achieve this amazing feat.
Will ‘John Wick: Chapter 5’ happen in the near future?
Keanu Reeves’ fans undoubtedly want to see him reprise his role as John Wick in a major motion picture, but there is a chance it won’t happen at all.
In a conversation, filmmaker Chad Stahelski noted, “The real question you ask yourself is not, ‘Do I want it?'” Yes, I’d be up for doing it. We simply made an effort to do everything perfectly. We made an effort to lay everything out there, take nothing, and leave everything.
“Like, ‘F—k it, every idea,” he continued. No savings are being made. We’re not looking to construct. Just leave it there with everything you’ve got. We believe John Wick 4 represents the culmination of the cycle, having given everything we had.
Chad said, “We feel like we concluded it. There may be a John Wick: Chapter 5 after all. In light of this, we think, “You know, it was a terrific way to wrap off the previous three films and the fourth and deliver something fulfilling and fun.
“Right now, if you put a gun in my head, you might as well shoot me,” the filmmaker remarked. It’s quite simple to get monotonous. The secret is to combine originality with repetition. How can you claim authorship or agency over something that’s been done three times already?
