'John Wick: Chapter 4' Gets a Sleek Black Yakuza Action-Packed Comic-Con Teaser

Is there anything more dramatic than Laurence Fishburne blowing out a candle?

If the answer to this question for you is "No", then you're in luck: the first teaser for "John Wick: Chapter 4" is here, in which Fishburne, as The Bowery King, is tangles once again with Keanu Reeves' elegantly groomed main character. Watch the video below and thrill to the sight of this guy fighting with a samurai sword.

This fourth installment in the assassin franchise is again directed by Chad Stahelski, who was Reeves' stunt double in the original "Matrix" trilogy and who founded action design company 87Eleven with David Leitch ( who was uncredited as a director on the first film "Wick"). Ian McShane, Lance Reddick, Bill Skarsgard, Donnie Yen, Rina Sawayama, Hiroyuki Sanada, Scott Adkins and Clancy Brown round out the cast.

“Chapter 4” is the start of a two-part finale for the franchise, although there will be a spin-off film starring Ana de Armas called “Ballerina,” as well as a Starz series on the hotel for mercenaries which figures so strongly in the plot of these films, "The Continental".

The film is scheduled for release on March 24, 2023. Watch your first preview here:
