John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum follows John after killing a member of the international assassins’ guild in a way that’s against the rules. He becomes the target of every assassin when a $14 million price tag is placed on his head. John is forced to pull every trick he can in order to stay alive. This further expands upon the universe.

John Wick 4 plot details remain secretive, but it’s clear that it will continue to develop some of the plot points introduced in its predecessor. John Wick 4 and John Wick 5 were supposed to be shot back-to-back, but that production plan has been scrapped. The television spinoff series The Continental is also supposed to strengthen the international assassins’ guild’s background.

Reeves appeared on Today to talk about his new comic book Brzrkr, but the John Wick 4 actor also talked about the upcoming action movie sequel. He explained how much he has enjoyed playing the role and what fans can expect from the sequel. Reeves mentioned big action, new characters, and further worldbuilding.

“They’re fun,” Reeves said. “They’re intense. We’re going for it. There’s some really amazing John Wick action and new characters and it’s been really fun to be playing the role again and to be telling this story. You know, there’s new characters and we’re opening up the world.”
