any word on Wick 3 yet? 2 was great, glad I put my foot down with Wifey to see this instead of 50 Shades.

Basically a sure thing -- studio would be stupid to not capitalize off this

Crazy how this series revived Keanu's career -- and he's 52yo too

It has surpassed the first one in the box office already and it does feel like it is barely getting started...

JW1 - $88m
JW2 - $93m

Not too surprising. A lot of people didn't see it in theaters. I saw the movie solo.

Keanu Reeves Is Already Concocting a Plot for John Wick: Chapter 3

Have you seen John Wick: Chapter 2 yet? If you haven't, maybe go see John Wick: Chapter 2. We loved John Wick: Chapter 2, and we're totally on board with the idea of a third film following Keanu Reeves' well-dressed assassin's assassin. So is Keanu Reeves, thank God. Reeves, in fact, is so on board that he's even actively spitballing ideas for a potential John Wick: Chapter 3, and it's wonderful.

Of course, reading any further requires a bit of a spoiler warning: Talking about the beginning of a possible third John Wick film, by necessity, means we've got to at least mention how the second one ended.

This is largely because John Wick: Chapter 2 ends on a hell of a cliffhanger, with Wick—having broken one of the two cardinal rules of his order and killed someone in the neutral zone that is the Continental Hotel—excommunicated from the (still-unnamed) order of assassins he was a member of. So that's the last we see of John Wick at the end of Chapter 2: A battered Wick, breaking into a run in Central Park, with only an hour's grace period before it's open season on him, worldwide. In an interview with Empire, Reeves sounds really jazzed about this premise, and rattles off ideas about where the next film would pick up.

"I think the opening of the film should be Wick just trying to escape from New York," Reeves told us. "Literally trying to get off the island. Maybe he asks [Lawrence Fisburne's character] the Bowery King for help. Maybe John Leguizamo comes and helps me out. 'John, I can't do it, you're excommunicado!'"

Reeves continued in an animated fashion: "Maybe the High Table shows up. And then the High Table starts firing guns. And then maybe this kind of thing starts to happen between the High Table and Continental? Maybe John is the activator of this confrontation, and perhaps there's a war? Wouldn't that be awesome?!"

You should check out Empire's podcast for more of Reeves' take, but it's not hard to play along yourself: Reeves, like us, mostly wants to know how the hell is Wick going to make it out of Manhattan in an hour, much less find any sort of safe haven and—maybe—turn the tables on his many pursuers.

While Chapter 3 isn't really official yet, the Empire piece also includes a small tidbit from Chapter 2 director Chad Stahelski, who says he'd "like to expand the world maybe another 25%." Honestly, we have no idea how much crazier John Wick movies can get, but we'd love to see how much they'll try.
