For the role of John Wick, names such as Johnny Depp, Sylvester Stallone, Bruce Willis, Dolph Lundgren, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Kurt Russell, Nicolas Cage, Kevin Costner and Jason Statham were on the agenda, but the final decision was Keanu Reeves.<\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
Series director Chad Stahelski was Keanu Reeves’ stunt double in The Matrix.<\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
In John Wick: Episode 2, Keanu Reeves used almost no stunts in any of the scenes. There are only two stunt scenes in the movie: the scene where Wick gets hit by a car, and the scene where he falls down the stairs during a fight with Cassian.<\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
In the original script of the series, Wick was written as a character in his sixties. For this reason, although the old wolves of Hollywood came to the fore for this role, this idea was approached negatively. Basil Iwanyk, President of Thunder Road Pictures, cast someone who is old in experience in the world of cinema, but who is not really that old.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
The loss of John’s wife in the first movie is very emotional for Keanu Reeves, as Reeves lost his girlfriend, Jennifer Syme, in a car accident in 2001.<\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
While the second movie of the series has not been written yet, director Chad Stahelski plans the fight scene in the mirrored room and this scene is added to the script. The director did this for a reason: to recreate Bruce Lee’s fight scene in the mirrored room in Enter the Dragon (1973). Thus, greetings are sent to both the film and Bruce Lee.<\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
The word Parabellum in the title of the third movie in the series comes from the Latin word “If you want peace, prepare for war”. At the same time, the producers, who sent John Wick to Morocco in the third movie, wanted to refer to the 1942 movie Casablanca.<\/p>\n
