John Wick Animated Prequel Film In The Works; Keanu Reeves To Return For "The Impossible Task"
John Wick is going animated!
During their CinemaCon presentation today, Lionsgate announced a brand new animated John Wick prequel film, that will return Keanu Reeves to his iconic role.
The new film will be set before the events of the original John Wick, and will follow Baba Yaga as he completes "the Impossible Task - the killing of all of his rivals in one night - in order to free himself from his obligation to the High Table and earn the right to be with the love of his life, Helen."
The untitled animated feature will continue to deliver the highly stylized and defined action that fans of the franchise expect and will also be geared more toward adult audiences, meaning it will still carry an R-rating.
Primetime Emmy-winner Shannon Tindle (Ultraman: Rising; Kubo and the Two Strings) has been tapped to direct, utilizing a screenplay from Academy Award-nominee Vanessa Taylor...
