'Under the High Table' Will Expand the John Wick Universe | Details Inside
EXCLUSIVE: Lionsgate is expanding its John Wick universe with John Wick: Under The High Table, an action series executive produced by the billion-dollar franchise’s star Keanu Reeves and director Chad Stahelski, Deadline has learned. Stahelski will also direct the pilot episode.
Written by Robert Levine, co-creator of The Old Man, the story of John Wick: The High Table picks up immediately after the conclusion of John Wick: Chapter 4. With John Wick having left the world of the High Table in a state of disarray, a new cast of characters will attempt to make a name for themselves, while some of the franchise’s stalwarts remain loyal to the old order.
The description for John Wick: The High Table, which promises to “combine the new and the old, sending the Wick universe into a new era,” hints at a mix of newly created and existing characters, an approach Lionsgate previously employed with the John Wick prequel limited series The Continental: From the World of John Wick, one of Peacock’s biggest original launches of 2023.
