- John Wick 3: Director Chad Stahelski Extended Interview
Last week, Collider partnered up with IMAX, Lionsgate, and director Chad Stahelski for a special screening of John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum at IMAX HQ followed by an extended Q&A. During the almost 80-minute (!) Q&A, Stahelski talked about how the story came together, the way they design the action set pieces, how Halle Berry got involved, what the production did to train the dogs, why he doesn’t like shaky camera footage, how they came up with the horse sequence, why directors are always working on tone and pacing in the editing room, what he learned from early screenings, his decades long friendship with Keanu Reeves, which action set piece gave him nightmares, the status of The Continental TV series and the Highlander reboot, and so much more it would be impossible to list everything here.
Trust me, if you’re a John Wick fan and want to learn how Chapter 3 was made, you’re going to learn a lot watching this Q&A. Check out what Chad Stahelski had to say in the player above and below is exactly what we talked about.
As you may recall, at the end of John Wick: Chapter 2, Wick (Keanu Reeves) was declared “excommunicado” and a global bounty had been put on his head for killing Santino inside the sanctuary of the Continental hotel. John Wick: Chapter 3 picks up almost immediately after the end of the previous film. John Wick: Chapter 3 also stars Ian McShane, Lawrence Fishburne, Anelica Huston, Halle Berry, Jason Mantzoukas, Hiroyuki Sanada, Tiger Hu Chen, Yayan Ruhian.

Chad Stahelski is such a talented Director. Great Q & A. Chad has to be one of the nicest, humblest person on the planet. ❤ Chad & Keanu. All the best for John Wick chapters 5, 6, 7, and so on. Yr going to be a very busy man Chad Stahelski. ❤⚘👍
a batman movie directed by chad stahelski would be awesome
agreed, match made in heaven!
Hey, if Chad likes to direct a musical and Keanu said a genre he would like to tackle is a musical ...
so, guys bring it on!!!!
Wow, that would be a musical like no other.
I would pay all my money to see that musical
a fuckin musical.. 😴😕😒

Chad 13th ghost was fantastic with the glass house great film
Great interview, thank you Steve!
Greatests persons and talent director Mr. Chad and talent Actor Mr. Keanu❤❤❤❤❤❤
Fantastic interview & some great questions, but that woman in the sparkly purple skirt was so annoying hogging the mic for her questions as if no one else had any questions & focusing on the "romantic" aspect of John Wick's wife. The woman is dead. She was buried in the first film. No coming back to life from that. Yes, John is dealing with the grief of the loss of his wife, but like Keanu in real life, he has to move on. That was why his wife had given him the gift of the puppy to help him through his grief and to move on as she knew that would help him. It would not become him to become maudlin & melancholic dwelling on his loss. Also, I do not want an exploration of a "romance" between John & Sophia. They're in the business of assassination. I enjoy the John Wick films because they are kick-ass and they don't have a contrived romance with another character.
Dear Hollywood, get this man to direct other buddy cop movies like Bad Boys 4, Beverly Hills Cop 4 / 5, and Rush Hour 4 in the near future. He needs to direct more action movies.
no bum movies
The first two have directors already
nobody could do John Wick like Chad and nice voice, also so handsome previous stunt performer. IMPRESSED.
a bum
Great interview. Isn't Chad just the coolest. So knowledgable. I love this guy. One of his biggest fans. Cheers from New Zealand.⚘❤👏👏
Phenomenal move and director. Wish him well
This is really interesting. If I could make a suggestion don't worry about spoilers seeing as an in depth interview spoils everything anyways.
GREAT.. ONE... CHAPEAU 🤠 💕 💕
Damn, I didn't even know this was a channel. I swear if Collider put half the effort into promoting each other that they do into maticulously hiding their content across the futher reaches of the internet, they would be taking over the world right now! Lol
Right, there's a lot of great content on this channel
bums
Hell yeah this is what I'm talking about nice to listen to others nothing negative to k but it's nice to see from different eyes .the way they talk about each other and the story's the idea sweet.

Todo sale bien cuando tenes un buen director detras
I thought Halle berry doing this and Mma movie would be a bad idea , i am glad I was wrong
❤❤❤❤❤
back in 2004, the Punisher was released under Lion's Gate. Personally, i think it suck because it was nothing more than copy and paste over the first Mad Max movie. It wasn't even original at all. many many many beers and a few thousand tears later, i think if Chad Stahelski ask Lion's Gate if he can direct the Punisher, Hopefully MCU/Disney hasn't bought it back yet, I'm sure we would get a real kick-ass Punisher movie. Not a lame 1989 version, not a copy and paste 2004 version or that meh...whatever War Zone version. so how about it Mr. Chad Stahelski? up for the task?
Dolph Lundgren was a great Punisher you are ungrateful and that was one of the earliest gritty graphic novel adaptations too. I guess people prefer him as a soldier instead of cop though that's understandable however both expose corruption in their former forces.
It was the real tall guy that Keanu/John Wick killed with a book, wasn't it?
John wick candle..thats a cool name
Incredibly helpful. WE do action, stunts and videography. Working hard to earn the right to work with people of Chad's caliber. Soon....

back ass wards
John wick 1 and 2 had a way better story than the 3rd. After so much action I got bored with it. Also the 3rd had a repeat of chapter 2 with the glass house. Are you running out of ideas? 1st part of the movie was great but from the middle to the end very disappointed with where they went with the story. Finally the eyeball and finger was just too much.
Its sad people like you exist. I feel sorry for your tiny mind.
too much naive&stupid action scenes in JW3 !! those with horse riding are probably most naive scene in hole movie
aight den mr karl childers! Mmmmm
not much of a director.. These movies would be great if directed by a person of talent and vision and not just a plotless kill counter!
