John Wick: Chapter 4 appeared designed to be the tip of the story of Keanu Reeves’ killer of assassins however this week we acquired conformation that’s not the case. Not solely is John Wick: Chapter 5 in improvement, however the World of John Wick is rising much more, with three different John Wick initiatives at the moment on the way in which. Essentially the most thrilling of all of them would be the new movie, Caine, starring Donnie Yen, and he is actually excited for it.
Along with Ballerina staring Ana de Armas being on the 2025 film schedule and John Wick: Chapter 5 in its early phases, we’re set to get an animated John Wick from Ultraman: Rising director Shanon Tindle and an extra spinoff starring Donnie Yen’s Caine, who was launched in John Wick: Chapter 4. Not solely will Yen star within the film, he may also direct it. And Yen responded to the information on Instagram in a easy method that, as a fan, has me critically pumped up. He stated merely…
I’m prepared John😎
As a fan of all the John Wick franchise, and of Donnie Yen particularly, I’m additionally prepared, and might’t wait to see this new film when it arrives. Donnie Yen has at all times been one of many nice martial artists in movie historical past and seeing extra of his work, executed within the John Wick type, and beneath his personal course, provides as much as what might be a fully unimaginable motion film.
After all, Donnie Yen’s touch upon Instagram additionally raises some essential questions, as a result of, why is Donnie Yen telling John Wick that he’s prepared? The brand new Caine film shall be set following the occasions of John Wick: Chapter 4, the story by which John Wick apparently died. We all know that, if a fifth film is going on, John Wick gained’t keep useless. May this imply that, like Ballerina, John Wick may make an look in Caine?
It’s actually a chance. What we initially thought was solely going to be a Keanu Reeves’ cameo within the John Wick spinoff Ballerina now appears to be a bit greater than a easy cameo, as Wick shall be referred to as in to cease the titular Ballerina performed by Ana de Armas. It wouldn’t be that shocking if some purpose is given for Wick and Caine to cross paths once more.
After all, Ballerina is about previous to John Wick’s “dying” so an look by Keanu Reeves in Caine would require an evidence that isn’t wanted in Ballerina. Nonetheless, it’s all fairly doable.
No matter occurs and whoever seems in Caine, it’s an thrilling undertaking for followers of Donnie Yen and the World of John Wick. Manufacturing on the spinoff is meant to begin later this yr, so a 2026 launch date isn’t exterior the realm of chance.
