Now, according to Lionsgate (via Comicbook) in a recent earnings call, John Wick 5 is officially in development, solidifying the John Wick franchise's future. Lionsgate also teased the release of upcoming John Wick spinoffs, as well as a John Wick video game. Check out what Motion Picture Group chairman Joe Drake had to say during the earnings call below:

 

"We're now moving across that franchise, not just in the AAA video game space, but looking at what the regular cadence of spin-offs, television really growing that universe so that there is a steady cadence of a franchise that there's clear appetite by the audience. What is official is that, as you know, Ballerina is the first spinoff that comes out next year. We're in development on three others, including [John Wick 5] and including television series, The Continental, will be airing soon. And so, we're building out the world and when that five movie comes, will be organic -- will be organically grown out of how we're starting to tell those stories. But you can rely on a regular cadence of John Wick."

 

The post-credits scene in John Wick: Chapter 4 also implies the return of Donnie Yen's Caine and Rina Sawayama's Akira, with Akira seeking revenge on Caine for killing her father. Though it's possible Caine's conflict with Rina will be resolved in a spinoff, as producer Erica Lee confirmed another film set in the John Wick universe is also in development. The confirmation of John Wick 5, a video game, and multiple spinoffs bode well for the John Wick franchise's future and the expansive world of assassins it will explore.
