Making 10 John Wick Movies Would Be Awesome, Says Director

The action franchise revolves around the titular former assassin who finds himself drawn back into his criminal underworld when a group of Russian gangsters kill the beagle puppy his late wife gave him, putting him on a path for revenge. With Wick's name now revived in the assassin world, the subsequent John Wick films find him pulled further back in by forces he hoped to leave behind.
