Looks like John Wick will be back to kick some more ass. If you ask me, the Keanu Reeves underrated action flick "John Wick" is one of the best action movies of last year. And now, this small, yet explosive, action flick is branching off with a sequel that promises to up the action and would take a closer look at its title character. [hit the jump to continue]
Directed by Chad Stahelski and David Leitch, the film centers upon a supposedly-retired assassin, John Wick played by Reeves, who instills some chaotic vengeance upon those who messed up his quiet life.
In an interview, Stahelski and Leitch reveals:
“We have ideas for days and without blinking twice we know we can outdo the action from the original,” Stahelski said. “It’s the matter of story and how much you like the character. That’s always the most important. If there’s great action but you have a character that no one likes and doesn’t have charisma you’re not going to watch it. Look at any great action star, whether it’s Harrison Ford or Liam Neeson or Robert Downey Jr., pick a name, you love the guy first. Good action, bad action, you just love them in action. So we want to make sure we have a story and a character that everybody loves and then we’ll dress it with action that we promise will be awesome.” [source: movies.com]
What was so unique about John Wick is the world that it creates. The mythology of its assassins is a refreshing take on a particular subgenre which was getting old and needed some revitalization. No release dates have been marked as of yet.
