Chad Stahelski, director of the John Wick movies, clarifies the timeline for all of the films, including when John Wick: Chapter 4 takes place.
John Wick: Chapter 4 director Chad Stahelski has clarified the timeline for the John Wick movies, including when the upcoming fourth installment takes place. Stahelski has directed all four films in the John Wick franchise and is set to serve as a producer for the upcoming spinoff, Ballerina. One of the defining features of the first three John Wick films was that every movie took place within hours of when the previous film left off, indicating the movies all cover a relatively short timeframe.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Speaking with Collider ahead of John Wick 4's release this week, Stahelski opens up about the John Wick movie timeline, including when this new installment is set compared to the other films. He clarifies the rather short amount of time the first three movies took place in, while indicating the fourth would be breaking that pattern.
Well, we figured the first three movies almost happened in like a week, week and a half, somewhere in there. That's my version, I think Keanu’s is a little different, and I think this is like six months later. So within a year, I think it all happens. I would say almost within 7 to 8 months.
With such a long time jump, it's likely that the Table and its associates believe John is dead after Winston shot him off the roof of the Continental at the end of John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum. With is body gone, though, it's probable that Winston knows John somehow survived his massive fall to the street below.
It's also possible that the High Table is looking for John, unsure if he's alive or dead because they don't know where he went after tumbling off the Continental. A major time jump could see the Table having exhausted the resources they're willing to spend to find John, still not knowing that he's still alive and with the Bowery King. When John does come out of hiding in John Wick: Chapter 4, he's sure to surprise everyone who has presumed him dead for half a year.
