‘John Wick: Chapter 4’ is eyeing a franchise best debut at the global box office.
Each new film in the John Wick franchise has out-grossed the last. And the trend is set to continue with the upcoming John Wick: Chapter 4, which is projected to deliver a franchise-best opening at both the domestic and international box office this weekend. Bowing mere days after the sad passing of cast member Lance Reddick — the film is dedicated to his memory — John Wick 4 is also being touted as the final film in the unlikely blockbuster series. At least for the time being.
Heading into its debut weekend, the film is projected to gross between $65 million and $70 million at the domestic box office, and a further $45 million from overseas territories, for a worldwide debut of around $115 million. This would easily top the previous best for the franchise — John Wick: Chapter 3 — Parabellum’s $56 million domestic debut in 2019. John Wick 3 launched in 65 global territories, and made $93 million worldwide in its opening weekend.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY John Wick 3 finished its theatrical run with $171 million domestically, and $328 million worldwide. This was a significant improvement over John Wick: Chapter 2, which grossed $92 million domestically and $171 million worldwide. The second film opened to $30 million, which itself was twice as much as the $14 million that the first John Wick made in its debut weekend.
Each film has been directed by Chad Stahelski, although the first one had David Leitch as an uncredited co-director. The franchise will continue with a television spinoff titled The Continental, and Ballerina, a feature film centered around a new assassin, played by Ana de Armas. John Wick 4 also stars returning actors Ian McShane and Laurence Fishburne, and new cast members Donnie Yen, Bill Skarsgård, Hiroyuki Sanada, Scott Adkins and Shamier Anderson.
