Keanu Reeves looking serious as John Wick at the Red Circle club in John Wick
John Wick star Keanu Reeves championed the preservation of a crucial storyline in the film despite apprehension from financiers. Released in 2014, John Wick is an American action thriller co-directed by Chad Stahelski and David Leitch that follows the journey of a retired hitman who embarks on a relentless quest for vengeance against Russian gangsters who killed Daisy, his dog and final gift from his recently deceased wife.

We were going to use a baby lens; John gets hit hard in the head, so it's going to be dream-like; the dog death happens off-camera, and all you are going to see in the aftermath is this trail of the blood making it look like the puppy tried to crawl to him. So on the day, Keanu was acting with a stuffed dog. Crying. He's all beat up. He looks awful in his pajamas.

Their determination to maintain the integrity of the plot ultimately prevailed, with Wick's dogs eventually becoming an important part of the franchise and a fan-favorite element of the movies.
