Stahelski added that the narrative included action sequences that were specially built around the dogs in the new film — Sofia’s “canine assistants…. They work very well tactically.” Reeves added that Sofia is someone that Wick shared a past with and thus goes up to her for help in the film. The narrative involves a $14 million contract that Wick finds himself embroiled in and he is desperately trying to run away from. The third installment of the John Wick franchise picks up from where t the second film left off. Anjelica Huston is also a new addition to John Wick: Chapter 3 and is “responsible for [Wick’s] upbringing and his protection” as put by Stahelski. The director also revealed that John Wick: Chapter 3 is an origin story of sorts. John Wick: Chapter 3 is scheduled to hit theaters on 17 May, 2019.
