Chad Stahelski talked about potential casting for John Wick: Chapter 5

Although there has been no confirmation from any of the cast members or production team members about a John Wick: Chapter 5 movie, Chad Stahelski, the director of all John Wick movies talked about some of the stars he would like to star alongside Keanu Reeves, if the franchise is continued for a 5th sequel.

In an interview with The Direct, Chad Stahelski revealed that the Oppenheimer star, Cillian Murphy was his top pick in a possible John Wick: Chapter 5 movie. He said,

“There’s a huge list, but just the first thing that came to mindset was Cillian Murphy. I’m a big Peaky Blinders fan. So, you know, I just think Cillian would fit right in. Colin Farrell is fantastic. Charlize Theron when she did Atomic Blonde, I saw that went, ‘Oh my God, I gotta work with this woman.’ She’s awesome. I worked with Michelle Yeoh way back on a commercial years ago, and I’ve been dying to work with her ever since. I’m such a huge fan.”

Although John Wick: Chapter 4 was a massive critical and commercial success, it will still be quite difficult to introduce a 5th sequel as the ending of the movie seemed a bit final, unlike the first three movies in the franchise.

John Wick: Chapter 4 is currently not streaming on any OTT platforms. However, the movie can be watched by renting it on Amazon Prime Video and Apple TV.
