Actor Keanu Reeves revealed that he felt tired many times because of the difficult scenes of the ‘John Wick’ series.

Recently, John Wick producer Basil Iwanyk shared on Collider that actor Keanu Reeves “begged” the team to kill his character at the end of John Wick: Chapter 4.

Keanu Reeves is exhausted from filming ‘John Wick’

This is understandable for Keanu Reeves, who feels exhausted after filming each John Wick part.

Basil Iwanyk said: “After parts 2, 3 and 4, the production of the series became very tiring. They destroyed Keanu both physically and mentally. At the end of the last scene, he always said: ‘I can’t do this anymore’ and we agreed with him.

For a long time, he was just a shell of himself because he was busy following the drama. He even pleaded: I want to be killed definitively at the end of this movie.”

Previously, the crew revealed that to film John Wick 4, Keanu Reeves had to challenge himself in many risky scenes.

Typically, the scene where John shoots a gun from inside a doorless car while driving around the Arc de Triomphe in France, or the scene where he has to chase on horseback through the desert while shooting…

John Wick continues or ends?

John Wick: Chapter 4 ends with John being shot in the third round of the duel and seemingly dead on the steps of the Sacré Coeur church after seeing a vision of his late wife.

After that, the movie cuts to a scene where Winston (Ian McShane) and Bowery King (Laurence Fishburne) visit John Wick’s grave.

The ambiguous ending of John Wick: Chapter 4 left many wondering whether Reeves would return for a fifth John Wick movie.

In an interview with Empire, director Chad Stahelski revealed that an alternative ending was filmed and tested for a group of audiences. Accordingly, John Wick survived a dramatic gun battle with Caine (Donnie Yen) at Sacré Coeur.

“The ending in the official release is what Keanu Reeves and I wanted. However, we filmed a different ending where the audience saw John Wick at the end of the movie. However, the audience in the screening Try liking the more ambiguous ending” – the director said.

Revealing to Entertainment Weekly, actor Keanu Reeves said that he would only return to John Wick if the film was directed by director Chad Stahelski: “I’m not sure about the future of the fifth part, if there is one I will definitely do not refuse.

However, I wouldn’t do a John Wick movie without Chad Stahelski. We still have to see if the new project is suitable. For me, it’s important that the character John Wick can truly find peace.”

Producer Basil Iwanyk also shared with Deadline that Stahelski and Reeves planned to take a trip to Japan to get ideas for part 5, and called this trip “like a boat finding a way out of the lane.” haze”.

According to Variety, Lionsgate certainly doesn’t want to say goodbye to Reeves, because John Wick 4, when released, quickly reaped opening revenue of up to 73 million USD.

The film left theaters having earned nearly 430 million USD, thereby bringing the John Wick series past the 1 billion USD mark globally. The film also received many positive reviews from experts. On Rotten Tomatoes, the film received a rating of 95% from critics and 96% from general audiences.
