The John Wick franchise is expanding its universe with the development of a new TV series titled John Wick: Under the High Table. This sequel series, spearheaded by executive producers Keanu Reeves and director Chad Stahelski, is currently in the works at Lionsgate Television. The project has Robert Levine attached as the writer and showrunner, with Stahelski set to direct the pilot episode.
Under the High Table will serve as the second TV series in the John Wick franchise, following the prequel miniseries The Continental, which streamed on Peacock in 2023. The new series is expected to pick up after the events of John Wick: Chapter 4, exploring the aftermath of John Wick's actions and introducing a mix of new and familiar characters navigating the world of the High Table.
In addition to the TV series, Lionsgate is also expanding the Wick-verse with two spinoff films: Ballerina, starring Ana de Armas, and a feature centered on Donnie Yen's character, Caine. The franchise's creative team, including Stahelski, Reeves, Levine, and producers Basil Iwanyk and Erica Lee, are working to bring a fresh perspective to the John Wick universe, blending elements of the established lore with new narratives.
With Stahelski's extensive experience in directing the John Wick feature films and his creative oversight of the franchise, Under the High Table is poised to offer fans a deeper dive into the intricate world of assassins and underworld politics. The series aims to push the boundaries of the Wick universe and usher in a new era for the beloved franchise.
