Back in December, we said that John Wick was on our top 10 movies of 2014 list. Keanu Reeves is awesome in it, and the one word that best describes the film is 'badass.' It proved that Reeves could still carry an action film. And it appears he'll have the chance to do it again.
Directors Chad Stahelski and David Leitch spoke with Movies.com and told the site "We're in development right now." There were no details given on the story, and the duo expressed their desire to work with Reeves again. Also, the problem isn't coming up with more action, but has more to do with the character.
Stahelski said to Movies.com:
"We have ideas for days and without blinking twice we know we can outdo the action from the original. It's the matter of story and how much you like the character. That's always the most important. If there's great action but you have a character that no one likes and doesn't have charisma you're not going to watch it. Look at any great action star, whether it's Harrison Ford or Liam Neeson or Robert Downey Jr., pick a name, you love the guy first. Good action, bad action, you just love them in action. So we want to make sure we have a story and a character that everybody loves and then we'll dress it with action that we promise will be awesome."
I love everything I'm hearing. It's nice to hear that even in a movie known for its action sequences, they care more worried about having good characters and stories. That's why I prefer an action film like John Wick over something like The Expendables.
