May 2019

There’s the entire ensemble of Avengers– Iron Man’s shiny suits, Captain America’s undeterred courage, Thor’s godly might, Hulk’s smashing prowess. Add to that, there’s the Guardians of the Galaxy and the one-woman army: Captain Marvel. There’s an entire troupe of powerful Superheroes each with stellar capabilities and there might soar to a whole new level of high.

And then there is John Wick.

One man, two words, and three movies. With the fourth one in making.

What started as an obscure action movie with a retired high profile assassin going berserk over a dead puppy is now an unstoppable franchise, you can’t help but take notice of.

John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum exceeded audiences’ expectations opening with a debut of $57 million in the US. Avengers Endgame, which is soaring into the fourth weekend came up short and was able to collect only $29.4 million on its fourth weekend. Ryan Reynolds starrer “Detective Pikachu,” came in third place, adding $24.8 million during its second weekend in the Box Office.

John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum was a crowd puller with the majority of the audience aged below 25. That shows how the movie has gained widespread appeal, especially among the young audience.

And while John Wick: Chapter 3 has been killing it in the Box Office, the word is out that the fourth installment of John Wick has a release date.

Exactly two years from now, the untitled John Wick movie will hit theatres on May 21, 2021.

So much for a dead puppy.
