EPs Basil Iwanyk and Erica Lee also talk about shooting the series in Budapest and tease their favorite action sequences.
The Big Picture The Peacock three-part event series The Continental: From the World of John Wick delves into the origin behind the famous hotel for assassins in 1970s New York City. In search of his brother Frankie , a young Winston Scott finds himself entangled with a dangerous underworld where he must overcome his past, in order to become the man familiar to the John Wick universe.
What do you think it is about John Wick that’s not only led to the establishment of a franchise, but now a whole universe? Why does it work for you guys? IWANYK: We struggled with the idea of a John Wick TV show and what it should be. There were two big events in the process. One was the idea of prequel, which we all loved. But then, after that, we still couldn’t figure out like the eight to 10-episode structure. It was still a little jumbled and confusing. So, the idea of the three nights came from Jon Feltheimer, and he was like, “Let’s go old school, like back in the day when there would be a movie event over a couple of nights.
With John Wick 4, you left things in a place where John Wick is dead, so people are clearly wondering what will happen next, in John Wick 5. Do you see another movie happening? Is it better to expand the franchise with things like The Continental and Ballerina, or is the hope to eventually get Keanu Reeves back in the role again?
What would you say is the action set piece that you consider the highlight of the three nights of this series?
