John Wick: Under the High Table, the second series from the franchise, will focus on ‘a collection of new characters looking to make a name for themselves’.
Keanu Reeves’ titular character in Chad Stahelski’s action thriller John Wick: Chapter 4 from last year has opened possibilities of more installments in the popular franchise. As per a report on Deadline, a sequel series titled John Wick: Under the High Table is now in works.
The series will be written and directed by Robert Levine of The Old Man-fame. He also executive produces the project along with Keanu, Chad, Thunder Road Films. Chad is also attached to direct the pilot episode. Keanu, who doesn’t seem to be acting in the series as of now, is involved in the project in a very hands-on capacity. Under the High Table will mark the second series for the franchise, following The Continental: From the World of John Wick, which streamed on Prime Video India last year.
John Wick: Under the High Table is set immediately after the events of John Wick: Chapter 4. The synopsis states, “John Wick has left the world of the High Table in a tenuous position and a collection of new characters will look to make a name for themselves while some of the franchise stalwart characters remain committed to the old-world order.” It aims “combine new and old and thrust the Wick universe into a new age.”
