Lionsgate has confirmed a fourth chapter in the John Wick sequel. The studio announced the news in a text message to fans, which read, “You have served. You will be of service. John Wick: Chapter 4 is coming – May 21, 2021.”
The director of the franchise, Chad Stahelski was quizzed on the possibility of a John Wick 4 during a Reddit AMA, he said that the fate of any upcoming films would depend on the fans and how well John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum, does at the box office. However, the director slipped up about a successor when asked which installment from the John Wick films was most difficult to make. “One was difficult because we didn’t understand what we wanted to do” he answered. “Number two, we had to map up a whole world we didn’t think of before. Three, how do we expand and get the audience something creative, not just bigger and cooler. Number four, I’m certain, will be more difficult.”
John Wick: Chapter 3 over-performed box office expectations, opening in North American cinemas with $56.8 million and dethroning the No. 1 reign of Marvel’s Avengers: Endgame. The film also garnered more than the opening weekends of predecessors, beating 2014’s John Wick debut of $14.4 million USD and 2017’s John Wick: Chapter 2’s debut of $30.4 million USD.
John Wick 4 is scheduled to premiere May 21, 2021. Tell us what you think about Chapter 3 in the comments below.
