Interesting. I'd been wondering about that, since they told us that John Wick would be showing up on the show and given his current relationship with the Continental. Also, it's been so long since there's been any news on this I thought for sure Starz passed on it.

Anyone else wonder if "Nobody" takes place in the same Universe?

I talked about that in the Nobody thread. My HOPE was that it would be. And it still could... though evidently the Nobody studio and the John Wick studio don't really get along so it would take some doing.

I think it was written and designed to fit within it, even if they never actually get around to doing a crossover.

Now it's going to Peacock instead of Starz.

More people probably have Peacock over Starz so this is a good move.

Likely still be on Starz in Canada because we don’t have Peacock

Saw the first "episode" (it's long, like an hour and a half!). Pretty cool, overall! It took the story a little bit before I was really engaged with the characters, but then I was and it all became fairly riveting stuff. And yes, it's got all the brutality of the John Wick movies and the "TV CGI" didn't stand out to me except for in a couple of tiny spots.

Even by the middle of the episode I think you can figure out how this whole story is going to play out, but I hope it ends up being not so predictable.

So basically they should just edit the three episodes together and release it on disc as "The Continental" movie.

That'd be a four and a half hour movie though.

I dont think anyone will watch a 4 hour long movie based in the John Wick universe without John Wick actually in it.

Maybe John Wick shows up as a kid, This takes place in the 70s.
