Chad Stahelski, the filmmaker of John Wick 4, knows exactly when each film in the franchise takes place, but the answers to chronological questions can surprise even the most enthusiastic supporters. In an interview, Stahelski discussed the franchise's extended timeline, revealing that the first three films took place in less than two weeks.
John Wick is a retired hitman who returns to killing after being assaulted by the son of a powerful mobster. In 2017's John Wick 2 and 2019's John Wick 3, he is hunted by dangerous men.
The three films' events are firmly linked, so it might be assumed that they occurred in a brief amount of time. According to Stahelski, the chronology of events is more concise than one might expect. Even if John Wick 4 makes the biggest leap in the franchise, the whole story will still be told in less than a year.
Stahelski also talked about how certain events in the film shaped the creative team's approach to the timeline issue. So, Wick's injuries affected the franchise's timeline planning.
On March 24, 2023, John Wick 4 will be released in cinemas.
