John Wick 5: What We Know So Far
News surrounding the production of "John Wick 5" has been somewhat complex and evolving, especially given the ending of the fourth installment. However, here's what can be said at present:
Will "John Wick 5" Be Made?
Yes, Lionsgate has officially confirmed that "John Wick 5" is in development. This news was announced at CinemaCon.
Status of Keanu Reeves and Chad Stahelski:
* Keanu Reeves is confirmed to return as John Wick, and Chad Stahelski is confirmed to return as director for the project.
* However, Stahelski has referenced the storytelling challenges for a fifth installment, particularly given the conclusive ending of "John Wick 4," which seemed to wrap up John Wick's story. He has emphasized that he doesn't want to compromise the quality of previous films and that if they can't find a compelling story, the movie might not be made.
* Reeves himself had previously stated in an interview that the "character is dead" and hadn't explicitly referred to a direct return to the role of John Wick. However, he was ultimately confirmed for the project, suggesting a logical or creative way to bring the character back has been found.
Potential "John Wick 5" Storyline:
* Chad Stahelski has stated that the story of "John Wick 5" will not be a direct continuation of the "High Table" storyline, as that arc concluded in the fourth film.
* This implies that John Wick might face new threats and enemies that operate outside of the High Table system. Specific story details are not yet clear and are likely in the early stages of writing.
Estimated Release Date:
* No official release date has been announced for "John Wick 5."
* Given that the spin-off film "Ballerina" is set for release in 2025, and other projects like "The Continental" series and a "John Wick" video game are in development, "John Wick 5" is unlikely to hit theaters before 2027 or 2028.
Other Projects in the John Wick Universe:
The "John Wick" universe is expanding, with several other projects in development besides "John Wick 5":
* Ballerina: A spin-off film starring Ana de Armas, with a story set between "John Wick 3" and "John Wick 4."
* The Continental: A TV series exploring the origins of the Continental hotels and the character of Winston.
* Caine Spin-off: A film centering on the character of Caine (played by Donnie Yen), who was introduced in "John Wick 4." Donnie Yen is also set to direct this spin-off.
* AAA Video Game: A high-quality video game based on the franchise is also in development.
In summary, while "John Wick 5" is confirmed to be in development with Keanu Reeves and Chad Stahelski returning, the creators are focused on finding a fresh and exciting story to avoid repetition and maintain the high quality of the franchise. We should await further information from Lionsgate and the production team.
