John Wick: Keanu Reeves’ Popular Movie Franchise Adds TV Series

Star Keanu Reeves and director Chad Stahelski are among the project’s executive producers.

Keanu Reeves, who has played the title character in 4 films, and director Chad Stahelski are among the executive producers of a sequel series in development at Lionsgate TV.

Robert Levine (The Old Man, Black Sails) is attached as writer and showrunner on the project, titled John Wick: Under the High Table.

Stahelski, who has helmed all four John Wick feature films, is also set to direct the pilot episode of the series.

Lionsgate, which produces the billion-dollar franchise, is shopping Under the High Table to potential buyers.

Director Chad Stahelski attends the premier event for "John Wick: Chapter 4" on September 13, 2023 in Tokyo, Japan.

 

Under the High Table would be the second TV series in the John Wick franchise.

In 2023, Peacock streamed the prequel miniseries The Continental, set at the hotel that is a safe haven for the assassins at the heart of the story.

Under the High Table will follow the events of John Wick: Chapter 4.

The logline for the show reads, “John Wick has left the world of the High Table in a tenuous position and a collection of new characters will look to make a name for themselves while some of the franchise stalwart characters remain committed to the old-world order. The series will combine new and old and thrust the Wick universe into a new age.”

Along with the potential TV series, Lionsgate has 2 spinoff films in the Wick-verse: 2025’s Ballerina, starring Ana de Armas, and a feature centered on Donnie Yen’s character, Caine.

Stahelski (via his 87Eleven Entertainment) will executive produce Under the High Table with Reeves, Levine and Basil Iwanyk and Erica Lee of Thunder Road.
