Studio desperate for more ‘John Wick’ films with Keanu Reeves

“John Wick: Chapter 4” made a killing at the box office its first weekend — and the CEO of its studio, Lionsgate, is hungry for more.

“We’re not ready to say goodbye to Keanu with this franchise,” Lionsgate Motion Picture Group Chair Joe Drake told Deadline after the stellar result.

His optimistic remarks come despite a clear-cut ending for the title character in the fourth film.

“There’s a lot of different things that we can do,” Drake said. “I’ve seen this movie five times in the last week.”

Drake and Lionsgate were surely moved by the franchise-record box office take of $137.5 million worldwide ($73 million domestic) its first weekend, and its 95% score on Rotten Tomatoes — another high.

The Post awarded “John Wick: Chapter 4” 3.5 stars, calling it “100-miles-an-hour” and “a beautiful sight to behold.”

In the film, assassin Wick darts around the world — New York, Berlin, Paris, Osaka — piling up bodies to finally free himself from the chains of the powerful crime syndicate the High Table. The bloody action flick also stars Laurence Fishburne, Ian McShane and Bill Skarsgård.

Reeves, 58, hasn’t dismissed the possibility of a return for Wick, either. 

“I don’t know, I guess I’m going to have to lean on never say never,” he told Entertainment Weekly. “I mean, I wouldn’t do a John Wick film without [director] Chad Stahelski. We’d have to see what that looked like. For me, it feels really right that John Wick finds peace.”

The actor also confirmed he’ll make an appearance as John Wick in the upcoming spinoff film “Ballerina,” starring Ana de Armas, that’s planned for release in 2024.

“I have a cameo in ‘Ballerina,’ that’s true,” he said onstage at SXSW. 

But Reeves would not say if he will be a part of the spinoff Peacock miniseries, “The Continental” with Mel Gibson, which will debut in late 2023.
