Mumbai: Hollywood actor Keanu Reeves unveiled the teaser-trailer of his most anticipated film, John Wick: Chapter 4, at the San Diego Comic Con on Saturday, July 23, 2022.
Reeves surprised the movie buffs, media, and filmmakers, who were part of the Directors on the Directing panel at the San Diego Comic-Con (including Chad Stahelski). Reeves made an unannounced entry and dropped the teaser-trailer of the fourth instalment in the John Wick franchise.
Though the story picks up from the end of the franchise’s previous instalment, Parabellum, Reeves has left no stone unturned as he continues his fight against one of the most brutal organisations in the world.
John Wick can be seen confronting various bad guys in the trailer as he uses different weapons in the fight sequences. Laurence Fishburne’s Bowery King asks, “You ready, John?” to which Wick replies,“Yeah.”
Besides, Baba Yaga is also expected to make a comeback with increased action (through nun chucks, guns, and swords), drama, and bloodshed.
Though actors Laurence Fishburne, Ian McShane, Lance Reddick, among others plan to reprise their roles from previous instalments, new faces like Donnie Yen, Bill Skarsgard, and Clancy Brown will also join the franchise with John Wick: Chapter 4.
The action film will release in theatres worldwide on March 24, 2023, and the makers have already planned out the fifth instalment.
Directed by Chad Stahelski and based on the characters by Derek Kolstad, the fourth chapter of the action-drama films is written by Michael Finch and Shay Hatten.
Comic-Con is an event where comic book fans, celebrities and filmmakers come together to celebrate comic book characters and make announcements regarding upcoming ventures.
