Keanu Reeves' John Wick 4 wraps shooting; film likely to be titled Hagakure

John Wick 4, the upcoming instalment from the popular Keanu Reeves action franchise, has wrapped shooting. Shamier Anderson, who plays a pivotal role in the film, shared several photos on Instagram to mark this development.

Anderson wrote that the experience of filming with the John Wick 4 team had been a "rewarding experience" for him. The image that stood out, and points to the potential title of the film was of a drawstring bag that reads "John Wick 4: Hagakure". However, an official announcement of the same is yet to be made by the makers. 

Hagakure or Hidden by the Leaves is a collection of 16th century texts by samurai Yamamoto Tsunetomo. The book is an instructional on the ways of samurai life. 

Screen Rant notes that the assassins in the John Wick series also adhere to a strict code, and anyone who ways from this is punished accordingly. The outlet writes that the fourth film just might dive into the similarity and the assassins. 

Besides Reeves and Anderson, the film will also star Ian McShane, Laurence Fishburne, Lance Reddick, Bill Skarsgård, Hiroyuki Sanada, Scott Adkins, Donnie Yen, and Clancy Brown.

John Wick 4, directed by Chad Stahelski, is slated to release in cinemas on May 27, 2022.
