Keanu Reeves left us amazed with his action-packed performance in John Wick. However, he’s hinted that he may not return to the character anymore. But don’t be upset, as a Lionsgate executive has confirmed there will likely be another John Wick movie!

According to a Comicbook.com report, it has been confirmed by Jenefer Brown that the production of John Wick 5 is being planned. In her discussion about the future of the John Wick series, she also mentioned some potential spin-offs.

Speaking to an outlet recently, Jenefer Brown, who serves as the Head of Global Products and Affairs at Lionsgate, shared her thoughts on the ongoing growth and development of the world. She went on to reveal that their next project is a spin-off movie titled “Ballerina,” which they are eagerly anticipating releasing to global audiences.

Afterward, she mentioned that not only has the studio declared a fifth installment of the John Wick series, but they’ve also begun working on it right away.

In addition, Jenefer Brown added that she believes we’ll see even more spin-offs in the future, possibly including a television show and a video game.

For the uninitiated, Ballerina is the newest addition to the John Wick cinematic world.

In the previously mentioned movie, Ana De Armas and Norman Reedus are set to appear together. Additionally, this film will serve as a final opportunity for us to admire the captivating talents of Lance Reddick.

In simple terms, Reeves is adamant about not reprising his role in the John Wick series beyond the events portrayed in the fourth film, as the storyline for his character has been wrapped up there.

On September 26, 2024, a sneak peek for the film “John Wick: Ballerina,” set in the same universe as John Wick, was unveiled. This preview revealed that Keanu Reeves will play an essential part in the backstory of Ana De Armas’s character, the titular Ballerina, and will make a brief appearance in the movie itself.

So far, the John Wick series consists of four movies. The first one, “John Wick,” came out in 2014. This was followed by “John Wick: Chapter 2” in 2017. Then there was “John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum” released in 2019. The most recent addition to the series, “John Wick: Chapter 4,” premiered in 2023.
