Chad Stahelski, who has previously directed all four movies in the series, has addressed a potential John Wick 5. Stahelski itted that he would love to make another John Wick movie, but revealed he would only do it if he came up with the right idea. Even though Lionsgate Motion Picture Group president Joe Drake revealed that John Wick 5 would enter development not long after the release of John Wick: Chapter 4, Stahelski has claimed that he hasn't come up with the right idea for the movie yet.

Our Take On Reeves' Comments About John Wick 5

It Is Doubtful That John Wick 5 Will Happen

Based on Reeves' recent comments and Stahelski's previous comments, it doesn't seem likely that John Wick 5 will be made. Reeves' concern about his knees is completely understandable, and it is irable that he wouldn't want to return to the role unless he was confident he could physically handle it. Even if John Wick 5 never materializes, John Wick: Chapter 4 still provided a great ending for Reeves' character. Additionally, he will reprise his role as John Wick with a brief appearance in the Ballerina spinoff.
