Earlier this year, the Hollywood star confirmed that the makers were working to make happen the fifth instalment of ‘John Wick‘ series.
The fourth film of the action franchise follows “Baba Yaga” going all guns blazing to take down the High Table, who has put a bounty on him, and free him from all the debt and obligations.
In a January interview, said he and the makers were planning for John Wick to die in a blaze of glory to be free and at peace.
“We had the opportunity [to do another film] because of the audience [response to] Chapter 3, and we were like, ‘What was the Why?’” Reeves said. “And when Chad and I was talking, the Why? was death — and it was John Wick’s death.”
