As for Reeves, the fan-favorite actor is busier than ever. Soon the actor will begin to promote John Wick: Chapter 4which is one of the first blockbusters to be released in 2023. The the actor filmed a small role in Ballerinathe first spin-off film set in the world of John Wick.
If all goes well, the actor will also soon be able to reprise his role as John Constantine in a sequel from filmmaker Francis Lawrence.
“One of the biggest things for me about the first one was that we followed, according to Warner Bros., the rules for making a PG-13 movie in terms of violence, blood, language, sexuality. But the ranking committee gave us a hard R based on their gray area of intensity”, Lawrence recently spoke to TheWrap about the sequel in development. “And my big, big regret was that we got an R-rated movie that’s really a PG-13 movie. And if I was going to have an R, I really would have made an R-rated movie. I would have made it much scarier and much more violent and I definitely would have made an R-rated movie.”
He added: “The idea this time around is, at least for me, to really go out there and make a real R-rated Constantine that is, I think, what people always originally wanted, not the PG-13 version that just happens to get an R.”
