John Wick Director Wants To Work With Charlize Theron, Robert Downey Jr, And More
The John Wick franchise started with just a single, self-contained action movie starring Keanu Reeves in the now-iconic role. John Wick Chapter 4 director wants to give Wick himself a rest, but he has a list of other actors he’d love to work with, he revealed in a new interview with The Direct.
“The first thing that came to mindset [sic] was Cillian Murphy,” Stahelski said. “I’m a big Peaky Blinders fan, so you know, I just think Cillian would fit right on. Colin Farrell is fantastic. Charlize Theron when she did Atomic Blonde, I saw that, went ‘Oh my god, I gotta work with this woman. She’s awesome. I worked with Michelle Yeoh way back on a commercial, and I’ve been dying to work with her ever since.”
Other actors Stahelski called out include Birds of Prey actor Jurnee Smollett, Robert Downey Jr, Peter Dinklage, and Sean Bean.
