Keanu Reeves is back to take on the high table John Wick: Chapter 4.
The last time we saw Keanu Reeves’ John Wick, he was devastated, bloody, betrayed, and vowed revenge on the high table. it involves a lot of killing John Wick: Chapter 4.
(Spoilers for the first three movies below.)
As I wrote before, for those who missed the first three films, Wick (Reeves) is a legendary killer who tried to retire when he fell in love and got married. Unfortunately, he was lured back into the dark underworld after his wife’s untimely death. I killed my adorable new puppy, Daisy. Who can blame the man who asked for (and took) bloody retribution?
The movie was such a hit that naturally a sequel was made.of John Wick: Chapter 2, Wick took on a slew of Russian villains and also found himself honor-bound (according to professional hitman code) to go on the final mission. Of course, he succeeded — he’s John Wick — but inside New York’s Continental Hotel, which was supposed to be a safe place for assassins, he killed a client of High Table’s newly named Double Crossing. Wick was declared “excommunicated”, cutting him off from all the resources the Hitman Underground normally provides.
There John Wick: Chapter 3 — Parabellum Wick scrambled to find an ally (and ammunition) to fight off nearly the entire assassin’s assassin. John negotiated forgiveness for his many transgressions to High Table in exchange for killing Winston (Ian McShane), manager of the New York City Continental. But when the time came, John refused, so High Table sent an army of assassins.John killed most of them, but Winston betrayed John and shot him. John survives and joins forces with a badly wounded Bowery King (Lawrence Fishburne) to exact their mutual revenge at the High Table.

According to the official premise:
John Wick (Keanu Reeves) faces his deadliest foe yet in the upcoming fourth installment of the series. From New York to Paris to Osaka to Berlin, Wick will battle it out against his global high table while searching for the most powerful players in the underworld.
Reeves introduced a sneak peek teaser of the film at last July’s San Diego Comic-Con, featuring a variety of action shots including samurai swords, nunchucks, bows and arrows, “dog foo,” daggers, and, of course, guns, guns. ,gun. The first official trailer for the cover of “Seasons in the Sun” was released last November. Introduced to the Marquis de Gramont. Winston advised John to challenge him to single combat. Win or lose, he can finally get out of trouble. Also, John doesn’t sit at the high table, but his family seems to.
This final trailer sheds no more light on the plot and mostly avoids dialogue, preferring to give fans all the action and gore they’ve come to expect from this franchise in a tightly edited minute and a half. Based on this footage, the choreographed fight scenes (once again) do not disappoint. With a run time of almost three hours, all the fighting will no doubt add to Wick’s already impressive body count.
