Keanu Reeves has insisted a fifth John Wick movie is unlikely

Keanu Reeves has insisted a fifth ‘John Wick’ movie is unlikely to happen.

The 60-year-old actor had played the assassin from the eponymous 2014 film until the character’s passing in 2023’s ‘John Wick: Chapter 4’, and has now stressed there probably won’t be more movies starring the hitman to come.

In an interview with ComicBook.com, he said: "You know, the character’s dead. He died in ‘John Wick: Chapter 4’."

Even when it was suggested to ‘The Matrix’ star that John Wick could be resurrected in some way, Reeves insisted that wasn’t part of the discussion currently.

When asked whether there was a plan to revive the assassin, he said: "Right now? Right now there isn’t."

‘John Wick’ producer Erica Lee had also previously admitted that "the stars have to align" if a fifth film is ever to be made.

Speaking with Screen Rant, she said: "I think we set this bar so high in [‘John Wick: Chapter 4’] and we left it all on the table. I say we burn the house down when we make the movie.

"So I think to pull it all together, it has to be a great idea and the stars have to align, and there's a lot of pressure to get that right.

"So that's what I'm most hopeful and excited and anxious about."
