John Wick 4 has franchise-best opening weekend – and Lionsgate wants more John Wick movies

Keanu Reeves as John Wick in John Wick: Chapter 4

John Wick: Chapter 4 has exploded onto the big screen with a franchise-best opening weekend. The fourquel, which was released this past Friday, March 24, has so far made $73.5 million in the US and $64 million worldwide, adding up to a total of $137.5 million. 

The franchise's last installment, 2019's John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum opened to $56.8 million, so Chapter 4's box office performance is a vast improvement on that. It's no surprise, then, that distributor Lionsgate is reluctant to say goodbye to Keanu Reeves' world-class hitman – even if this last movie seemed like a swansong for the character.
