The Reeves-led film will be on the way Starz, the network owned by franchise studio Lionsgate, on Sept. 26, just over six months after its March 24 release.

How the John Wick franchise continues after Chapter 4
Despite the emotional John Wick: Chapter 4 end up seeing Reeves’ nearly invincible assassin finally meet his end, it was confirmed just two months after its successful run in theaters that Lionsgate was moving forward with John Wick 5. At the time of writing, it is unknown how a fifth film will continue the franchise, with Reeves and director Chad Stahelski both confirming their interest in returning, but they noted that it would require a story worthy of regret for Wick’s ending .
With no time frame specified John Wick 5s development, the franchise will have to turn to other avenues to keep the action franchise going. In addition to the aforementioned Continental prequel series, next year will see the release of Ballerinaa spinoff set between John Wick: Chapter 3 — Parabellum and Chapter 4 and focusing on Ana de Armas’ young hitman Rooney, previously portrayed by Unity Phelan in the previous film. The spinoff will see Reeves star as Wick alongside Ian McShane as Winston, Lance Reddick as Charon and Anjelica Huston as the ballerina instructor.
In addition to these already confirmed projects, Stahelski recently indicated that he is working with Lionsgate for another John Wick TV show that has been speculated to be the Secret Universe movie previously reported to be in the works. With both Donnie Yen and Shamier Anderson expressing their hope to further explore their characters, John Wick: Chapter 4 has proven to be as important to the franchise’s future as it could have been its end.
