Rewritten Article:
John Wick 5 is set to take a new path, according to Director Chad Stahelski. In an interview with Collider, Stahelski shared that the fifth installment might need a bit more time before hitting theaters.
The director and producer confirmed they have a concept for John Wick 5, but they're taking a break to explore different experiences and experiment with unique styles.
"If you're craving John Wick 5, you'll have to be patient. Keanu and I need to grow as individuals and collect some fresh ideas," Stahelski said.
During his travels across the globe for the past year and a half, Stahelski has been gathering inspiration for new characters and storylines.
He shared, "I’ve been roaming the world, unearthing new places and meeting interesting folks who'll become the foundation for some exciting characters."
The director emphasized the importance of creating something fresh and unique for the audience. "If you want something new, captivating, and mind-blowing, you gotta let us soak up some fresh experiences and channel that energy into the movie," Stahelski added.
At present, Stahelski is excited about the release of From the World of John Wick: Ballerina, featuring Ana de Armas in a key role.
The upcoming movie is not a direct continuation of the High Table storyline but introduces a new narrative with John Wick at its heart [3]. Although Stahelski and his team have a general idea for the fifth movie, they are still keeping details under wraps for now; no specifics about new characters or locations have been revealed [1].
The new John Wick journey is expected to bring something fresh and different to the audience, possibly introducing new environments and characters that expand the John Wick universe beyond its previous iterations [3][4].
- "In their exploration of unique experiences and styles, the team behind John Wick 5 might draw inspiration from various places around the world, capitalizing on the entertainment value found in diverse cultures and people."
- "Beyond movies-and-tv, the director's travels could expose the John Wick universe to the wonders of the world, potentially leading to a globalized expansion of the pti we've come to know and love."
