Lionsgate announced a new release date for John Wick: Chapter 4 in a trailer posted on the company’s social media channels on Wednesday with the words “Meet You”. While Lionsgate hasn’t revealed the specific reason for the film’s delay, it looks like the film could be pushed to 2023 as production has stopped and has yet to resume in Japan, according to a source report by Deadline says the film is being shot around the world.
The upcoming John Wick: Chapter 4, led by Keanu Reeves, stars Bill Skarsgård, Donnie Yen, Ian McShane, and Laurence Fishburne.

As mentioned earlier, John Wick: Chapter 4 was previously scheduled for release on May 27, 2022, which will pit it against another much-awaited movie – Top Gun: Maverick.
