It is understandable that Lionsgate is particularly interested in continuing with the saga that began in 2014 and that by the end of the year it should also give us the TV series The Continental and by 2024 the spin-off Ballerina with Ana de Armas (here on the Czech set with Keanu Reeves). However, it is difficult to overcome the resistance described by Stahelski a The Hollywood Reporter:
In our heads, Keanu and I are done for now. We’ll rest John Wick. I’m sure the studios have a plan. We’ll take a minute. For some strange reason Wick always has the latest release date in Japan. It’s always about three months later. If this is the case again, we will do a Japanese tour and release the film in September. Keanu and I will make the trip to Tokyo, sit in the Scotch Bar at the Imperial Hotel and say, “What do you think?” We’ll have a couple of 20-year-old whiskeys and write some ideas on napkins. If they work, then maybe we’ll make a movie.”

After the 86 million dollars of the first, the 172 of the second and the 328 million John Wick 3 – Parabellumit will be hard to do much better, even if the forecasts already foresee the possibility of touching i 500 million dollars. Whether to find out how some open story lines might develop in John Wick 4both for the curiosity aroused by the aforementioned interview, in which the director explains how much the Weapons true are still being used on film sets after the tragedy of Rust:
“My feeling is that there’s no reason to have a firearm on set. We can make cities and spaceships and Godzillas and all these things, we have the technology to do the same with firearms. But, for the past 100 years, Hollywood has used real firearms. Prop makers, gunsmiths and suppliers would end up with entire stocks of useless live firearms. It all boils down to the fact that for some people it would cost a great deal of money to change. Nobody wants to say it, but this is the real reason. There is no need for firearms, but the alternative will cost more.”
