Lionsgate has always created some of the best posters and continues to do so with the first artwork for the Chad Stahelski-directed John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum. Much like in the first image (above), rain pours down on Keanu Reeves’ title character who is about to enter the now-famous Continental Hotel. While the one-sheet itself is stunning, the reverse text only adds to its allure.
In the film…
“John Wick (Reeves) is on the run for two reasons… he’s being hunted for a global $14 million dollar open contract on his life, and for breaking a central rule: taking a life on Continental Hotel grounds. The victim was a member of the High Table who ordered the open contract. John should have already been executed, except the Continental’s manager, Winston, has given him a one-hour grace period before he’s “Excommunicado” – membership revoked, banned from all services and cut off from other members. John uses the service industry to stay alive as he fights and kills his way out of New York City.”
John Wick: Chapter 3 also brings back two of the franchise’s other key players, Winston (Ian McShane) and Charon (Laurence Fishburne). Lance Reddick also returns with the full cast including Anjelica Huston, Asia Kate Dillon, Mark Dacascos, Jason Mantzoukas, Tiger Hu Chen, Yayan Ruhian and Cecep Arif Rahman.
Wick returns on May 17, 2019.
