However, Reeves has expressed uncertainty about reprising his iconic role. In an interview, he stated, ‘I think there’s some discussion happening, but I don’t know what the future holds for John Wick.’ The uncertainty comes following the success of ‘John Wick: Chapter 4,’ which grossed over $430 million globally, surpassing its predecessors and solidifying the franchise’s status in cinematic history.
