Chad Stahelski

There can be only one. And that one is Henry Cavill.

That’s according to director Chad Stahelski, who played Keanu Reeves’ stunt double on the original ‘Matrix’ movies.

New dogs. No co-star. Same old Keanu

Stahelski has been with the series since the beginning, when he and David Leitch first introduced us to John Wick.

Yeah, we’re thinking he’s got a Starz subscription. The universe of John Wick is about to blow up, as Starz confirms that a Continental TV series based on the infamous assassins’ hotel is officially in the works with Keanu Reeves producing.

John Wick is back again… again. Keanu Reeves’ immortal hitman will come out of retirement once more in John Wick: Chapter Three, which Lionsgate has officially announced will hit theaters May 17, 2019.

Details of the John Wick franchise future have been hard to come by, especially for a TV tie-in, but consider the assassin’s next stay booked. Director Chad Stahelski reveals that a John Wick TV series would likely explore the deadly Continental hotel, and perhaps feature a cameo from Wick himself.

John Wick is the gift that keeps on giving, and by ‘giving,’ we mean ‘shooting fifteen dudes within sixty seconds.’ The sequel stood tall at the box office, delighted audiences, and wowed critics, and now that franchising has been deemed a safe option for the series, more is in the works.

If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. That seems to be the motto of the production team behind both John Wicks, as they’re bringing back their star, their director, and now their screenwriter for the third go-round. Derek Kolstad, who penned both John Wick and John Wick Chapter 2 is back on the team for John Wick 3.

Because John Wick is terrible at retiring (and because Chapter 2 left him in quite a sticky situation that whole worldwide bounty thing and all), director Chad Stahelski is already working on the script for a third movie, and he’s very excited about all the possibilities. Wick is not part of a franchise, so all the series really depends on is Keanu Reeves’ availability and the ability of the writers and director to come up with another idea.
