As one of the most anticipated films of the year, John Wick 4 remains at the top of film conversations right now.

Actor Keanu Reeves joined Cheddar News this week to talk about the fourth sequel project its place in the franchise and how filming John Wick has impacted his life.

"I appreciate, so much, the opportunity to play the role and to work with the artists I work with, whether it's in action or in acting," he said.

The film is expected to be the biggest financial success of the four installations as it is projected to bring in between $65 million and $70 million in the U.S. during its opening weekend, and another $115 million at the international box office.

Reeves talked about the franchise remaining independently produced and the shock he felt that the Wick-Universe has expanded so much.

"We had the benefit of being a kind of original story and we had the opportunity to kind of shepherd and we've only been given the opportunity because we found an audience that enjoys the films," he told Cheddar News.
