JOHN WICK Director Says There's "Distinct Possibility" John Wick Could Go to Space
The John Wick action film franchise has featured some pretty incredible jaw-dropping stunt sequences over the course of the films. Each film that’s made also takes things to a whole new level and they just get bigger and bigger. Well, maybe one day that will lead to seeing Keanu Reeves’ John Wick go to space.
Franchise director Chad Stahelski was recently asked if John Wick would ever go to space, and he said there’s a chance that it could happen.
"There's a distinct possibility it could. I don't know if I'd be piloting the ship, but could the character go? Even as a fan, I think the John Wick world is kind of fun and interesting. But the sky's the limit. We're not coming from an existing IP, so I don't have to follow Batman lore. I can do anything."
He can do anything, so if he wanted to set a John Wick story in space, he totally could! It pretty much all depends on if it serves the story and characters. The director went on to say:
"If the producers, including myself in the studio somehow became very smart very quickly and we could continue to be smart about how we managed it and get the right people in to continue it long past my tenure. Yeah. Anything can happen. If Fast and Furious can, I'm sure we can. Might take a little longer, but let's stay earthbound for now and try to keep doing a good job down here."
I agree. They’re doing a great job right now; there’s no reason to take John Wick into space…. yet. John Wick: Chapter 4 is currently set to enter theaters on March 24, 2023 while there’s also The Continental spinoff series, which has yet to set a release date.
