"The Continental will be way early in the history of the series," Hirsch explained. "It will be a fresh look at The Continental and how it came into the being of John Wick. So it's way back in terms of the timeline of the movies."Hirsch would not confirm if Keanu Reeves will make an appearance on the series, but he did say that it's unlikely for The Continental to premiere before John Wick 4, which is set to release on May 21, 2021 Back in 2018, Starz's president of programming, Carmi Zlotnik , was more forthcoming concerning Keanu's anticipated appearance. "You can expect to see [Keanu Reeves] at some point in the series," Zlotnik said. "It's part of the ongoing discussion."Chris Collins (The Wire) will act as showrunner, with John Wick: Chapter 2 director Chad Stahelski helming the premiere episode.For more on the world of John Wick check out our look at why we love the John Wick films, see what John Wick 3 reveals about his origin, and, while not directly John Wick related, read five stories of Keanu Reeves just being the best person ever.
