Basil Iwanyk, producer for the ‘John Wick’ series, has revealed that the titular role was a much more difficult undertaking for star, Keanu Reeves, than previously expected.
“After the second, third, and fourth movie, making these films is so exhausting and it destroys Keanu, physically and emotionally,” Iwanyk said. “By the end, he’s always like, ‘I can’t do this again,’ and we agree with him. The guy is just a shell of himself because he just goes off and goes for it. He was like, ‘I wanna be definitively killed at the end of this movie.’”
“We were like, ‘You know, we’ll leave a 10% little opening,” he said, implying that… perhaps… there may be a Reeves-led ‘John Wick 5’.
