John Wick, the action-packed movie franchise starring Keanu Reeves, has become a fan favorite since its debut in 2014. The series has spawned two sequels and a spinoff, but it looks like the writer of the franchise, Derek Kolstad, won’t be doing any more spinoffs.
Kolstad recently spoke to Collider about his involvement in the franchise and revealed that he won’t be writing any more spinoffs. He said, “I’m not doing any spinoffs. I’m done with John Wick. I’ve done my part.”
Kolstad’s decision to step away from the franchise is understandable. After all, he’s been involved with the franchise since its inception and has written all three movies. He’s also been involved in the development of the spinoff, John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum.
Kolstad’s decision to step away from the franchise is a wise one. After all, the franchise has become increasingly popular and it’s likely that the studio will want to continue to capitalize on its success. By stepping away, Kolstad is allowing the franchise to continue to grow and evolve without his direct involvement.
It’s unclear who will take over writing duties for any future spinoffs, but it’s likely that the studio will look to bring in a new writer to take the franchise in a new direction. Whatever the case, fans of the franchise can rest assured that Kolstad’s involvement in the franchise has been invaluable and that his decision to step away is the right one.
