In the wake of the highly successful R-rated film John Wick: Chapter 4, which grossed almost $200 million domestically and near half a billion worldwide, news has emerged about a fifth installment in the franchise.
"Despite [John Wick] being presumably dead, we're excited to grow this world further," Brown stated.
She also highlighted the upcoming spin-off film, Ballerina, which is set to expand the franchise.
This announcement contradicts Keanu Reeves' recent comments, where he declared, "The character is dead. He died."
Nonetheless, Lionsgate appears eager to persuade Reeves to return with a substantial offer, as the studio is in dire need of a hit following multiple box office flops in 2024.
Ultimately, the development of John Wick 5 may not only revitalize the franchise but also enhance Lionsgate's potential attractiveness in light of speculations about a possible sale.
