John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum now has a second trailer, and the hits just keep coming. The second trailer picks up right where the second film leaves off. Check out the trailer below:
John Wick is on the run after killing a member of the High Table on Continental Hotel grounds. As a courtesy, Winston (Ian McShane) gave Wick a 1-hour headstart before putting out that Wick was ‘Excommunicado’.
This means that the legendary mercenary gets his membership revoked, banned from all services and cut off from other members. Also, a $14 million contract is put on his head. This is the worst place to be in for Wick.
Wick must fight his way out of New York City, or die trying. It doesn’t look like Wick will just lay over in this one. Director Chad Stahelski in an interview with Collider from last year breaks down the intent of the third film:
“We want, not so much to go bigger on the third one, but to show you more of the intricacies of the world… I feel like there are all these different subtleties that I skipped over in Number Two, that I’d like to go back to on [chapter three] and show you the inner workings of different parts of New York.
So rather than massive set pieces, I’d like to show you cooler and more intricate ones… I think it would be a mistake budget wise and creatively to just go big and blow up a freeway. That’s not our gig. That’s a comic book or a Bond gig. We want to show you cool and intricate details.
What are those little details in everyday life? Hopefully – we make people look at garbage collectors and cleaner vans and homeless people a little differently now.”
The film stars Halle Berry, Laurence Fishburne, Lance Reddick, Ruby Rose, Angelica Huston, Asia Kate Dillon, Mark Dacascos, and Jason Mantzoukas.
