Lionsgate has debuted new images from John Wick 2 featuring Keanu Reeves and more. Take a look at all the images and the recent trailer below.
“The mirror room was Chad’s idea,” Keanu Reeves told Empire. “It’s his homage to Bruce Lee at the end of Enter The Dragon. The whole installation is a maze of mirrors where guys can pop out and disappear. It’s very cool and a lot of fun to fight in.”
“You go watch any of the great Hong Kong guys,” director Chad Stahelsk said about the martial arts action in the film. “[You’re watching] wider shots; you’re watching an extremely talented individual. If you’re using fast editing to hide things, I call bullshit. That’s cheating. Luckily, we have a cast member that can do it. Keanu’s been doing martial arts for 25 years. He’s been trained by us, he’s been trained by Yuen Wo Ping. He’s been trained by Chen Yen.”
“It’s like going back to your favourite restaurant but this time, instead of getting to the fillet, you’re getting the porterhouse,” Reeves added about John Wick 2.
John Wick: Chapter Two has a February 10, 2017 release directed by Chad Stahelski also starring Laurence Fishburne, Ian McShane, Lance Reddick, John Leguizamo, Common, Peter Stormare, Ruby Rose, Bridget Moynahan and David Patrick Kelly.
