Description

⁠Keanu Reeves⁠ stars as ⁠John Wick⁠, a legendary hitman who comes out of retirement to seek revenge against the men who killed his dog, a final gift from his recently deceased wife. The film also stars ⁠Michael Nyqvist⁠, ⁠Alfie Allen⁠, ⁠Adrianne Palicki⁠, ⁠Bridget Moynahan⁠, ⁠Dean Winters⁠, ⁠Ian McShane⁠, ⁠John Leguizamo⁠, and ⁠Willem Dafoe⁠.Kolstad's script drew on his interest in action, revenge, and ⁠neo noir⁠ films. Producer ⁠Basil Iwanyk⁠purchased the rights as his first independent film production. Reeves, whose career was declining, liked the script and recommended that the experienced stunt choreographers Stahelski and ⁠David Leitch⁠ direct the action scenes; Stahelski and Leitch successfully lobbied to co-direct the project. ⁠Principal photography⁠began in October 2013, on a $20–$30 million budget, and concluded that December. Stahelski and Leitch focused on highly choreographed and long ⁠single takes⁠ to convey action, eschewing the rapid cuts and closeup shots of contemporary action films.
