The franchise John Wick declines again. A feature film dedicated to the character of Caine, played by Donnie Yen, is in the works. Filming will begin in Hong Kong next year, according to Variety.
Actor Donnie Yen, who played this fearsome blind martial arts master assassin in John Wick: Chapter 4 (2023), will return to service for this new feature film with a still unknown title. The plot will take place after the events of this previous film.
“Working on ‘John Wick: Chapter 4’ was an extraordinary experience,” he said in a statement. “Caine is an incredible character, haunted by his past, and I can’t wait to reprise this role.”
“captivated viewers”
Retired assassin and old friend of the hero played by Keanu Reeves, he took up arms again when the Big Table organization hired him to kill John Wick. A contract he accepted to protect his own daughter.
“From the moment Donnie Yen appeared on the screen in John Wick: Chapter 4“It captivated audiences,” says Adam Fogelson, director of Lionsgate Motion Picture Group, in the same press release. “Fans are asking for more.”
John Wick has already been the subject of a spin-off series, The continent, prequel to the film saga. A first spin-off film will be released in 2025, Dancer, in which Keanu Reeves will play Ana de Armas. Furthermore, one fifth of John Wick is in preparation.
