So John Wick 4 is happening now…

I can only apologise for that article I did yesterday where I kept going on about how the third John Wick film was going to be the last.

I swear that’s what absolutely everyone, including the studio, was saying before now but no, there’s a TV spinoff, a game and a f*cking film sequel coming out in the next few years.

I’ve never felt so stupid and that’s coming from someone who inexplicably gave Justice League three stars out of a possible five when I was asked to review it. What was I thinking?!

Now don’t get me wrong, I like the John Wick films and the news of a fourth one being on the way is only a good thing for me, but I’m just annoyed that I spoke with such confidence in the last article.

Right I’ll stop bitching and get on with this article. Only took me four paragraphs.

#JohnWick3 is the #1 Movie in the world. See what everyone is raving about. https://t.co/Q5hjL3Hg2f pic.twitter.com/R9OnvsU0xl — John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum (@JohnWickMovie) May 20, 2019

As Variety reports, Lionsgate made the announcement of a fourth John Wick via text message to fans, reading:


“You have served. You will be of service. John Wick: Chapter 4 is coming – May 21, 2021“

So two years to wait, but fear not, since the spinoff series, The Continental, is already in pre-production.

Franchise director Chad Stahelski said:

“They have a writers’ room working on it right now, trying to develop the first season. Keanu and I have sat with that creative element, and laid out what we feel makes John Wick special, and what would make the TV show unique. Now, it will be a round of back-and-forths. But, yeah, Lionsgate is in actual full development of it and it’s called The Continental. It should be fun.“

Should be a lot of fun.


No word as to whether Keanu Reeves will be in The Continental, but he is working on it.
