An animated John Wick prequel movie is in the works.
During CinemaCon, it was revealed by Adam Fogelson from Lionsgate’s Motion Picture Group that a John Wick animated prequel film is being developed. It’s anticipated that Keanu Reeves will reprise his role by providing the character’s voice.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, a currently untitled film is being helmed by director Shannon Tindle, with screenplay penned by Vanessa Taylor.
What else do we know about the animated John Wick prequel movie?
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the upcoming film featuring Keanu Reeves as John Wick is set before the events of the first movie released in 2014. In this new project, John Wick is seen carrying out an Impossible Task: eliminating his enemies within a single night as part of his duty to the High Table.
Fogelson stated, “In the realm of animation and the John Wick universe, there’s no limit to what can be done. And among all potential John Wick tales, none excites fans more than The Impossible Task. Shannon’s interpretation of this story is remarkable, and we can hardly wait to discover John Wick’s capabilities in animated form.
As a gamer, I’m excited to share that this movie is being brought to life by the talented team of Chad Stahelski, Basil Iwanyk, Erica Lee, and Keanu Reeves. Alex Young and Jason Spitz are also on board as executive producers, ensuring top-notch quality every step of the way.
Chad Stahelski, who has been at the helm of every John Wick movie so far (with the exception of the upcoming Ballerina spin-off directed by Len Wiseman), expressed his enthusiasm: “Anime has always intrigued me. It’s had a significant impact on me, particularly in shaping the John Wick series. Developing an anime adaptation for John Wick feels like the ideal next step for this universe. I believe that John Wick is the perfect fit for this medium; anime offers possibilities to broaden our world, deepen our characters, and amplify our action in ways we hadn’t thought of before.
Iwanyk and Lee noted, “Shannon’s vision for this movie we’ve been eagerly waiting to create is absolutely stunning. Not only are we thrilled to share Vanessa’s tale, but we can’t wait to present it to viewers.
A release date for the animated John Wick prequel movie has not yet been announced.
