Samuel L. Jackson Wants In on JOHN WICK 3!
You know who would fit perfectly in the world of John Wick? Samuel L. Jackson! The guy is just a badass actor who has been a part of some badass films, and John Wick is one of those badass franchises that he needs to be a part of.
Jackson himself is even reportedly looking to get in on the franchise and apparently wants a role in John Wick 3. The franchise has already lured in actors such as Keanu Reeves, Ian McShane, Laurence Fishburne, John Leguizamo, and Willem Dafoe. It only seems logical to get Jackson in there as well!
On the latest episode of Meet The Movie Press, Simon Thompson talked about multiple conversations he's had with Jackson about the franchise. He even told him that he'd rather have a part in John Wick 3 than star in a Nick Fury solo film, and that's saying something. This is what Thompson had to say:
"He actually was less interested in that than he was in an idea he floated with me, and he’s floated it with me twice now. He wants to do, over a Nick Fury movie, John Wick 3 with Laurence Fishburne and Keanu Reeves. He absolutely loves the John Wick movies. He wants in. He doesn’t want in, he wants in with a capital IN. Seriously, I think he will do whatever he needs to do to get in on John Wick 3."
I have no idea what the story for John Wick 3 will entail, but Reeves has a pretty awesome idea that you can read here. I would love to see Jackson face off against Reeves in the movie, though! Hopefully, it happens because it seems like it would make a perfect fit.
Would you want to see Jackson take on a role in John Wick 3? If so would you want to see him fight against John Wick or with him?
