John Wick 4 Story
The story of the 4th chapter has not been told to the public yet. We have a few tidbits here and there from conversations that the creators had at various events. Chad Stahleski, the stuntman turned director in an interview with Indiewire talks about the future of the story. He tells fans to think about where John has been and where they think he’s going. He assures them it is not going to be a happy ending.
John Wick 4 Cast
There are nothing but speculations when it comes to the cast of the movie. Since the movie is still in pre-production, there are still a lot of details to iron out at that level. All we know for sure is that Keanu Reeves will reprise his role as John Wick. As more details about the cast unfold over the coming year, we will definitely let you know.
John Wick 4: Future of The Series
What we also know is that the 4th chapter will most likely not be the end of the movies. On a Lionsgate earnings call, the studio’s CEO said the following:
“We’re also busy preparing scripts for the next two installments of our John Wick action franchise, with the fourth movie slated to hit theatres Memorial Day weekend 2022. We hope to shoot both John Wick 4 & 5 back to back when Keanu becomes available early next year.”
So, fans will most likely see, not only Chapter 4, but a Chapter 5 as well.

John Wick 4 Release Date
The fourth movie was originally scheduled to be released on May 21, 2021 but of course they couldn’t meet that deadline. The Covid-19 pandemic had slowed down the work on the film along with prior commitments of Chad Stahelski to Matrix 4. The film has an official release date now of May 27, 2022, Memorial Day Weekend. Production of Chapter 4 and Chapter 5 are expected to start consecutively in early 2021. So, fans can expect more news, videos and stills as that happens.
The current John Wick movies are available on Netflix and Amazon Prime Video.
John Wick 4 Trailer
There is no official trailer yet because of the obstacles we mentioned earlier. However, when there is one, we will let you know. In the meantime, check out the trailer of John Wick Chapter 3 below. Once a trailer drops for the fourth movie, we will let you know. We expect it sometime in mid-2021 after the end of production.
