Thank you v much for this. Chad speaks with the practical, elegant and direct clarity of a master of his craft - I honestly want to grab him, sit him down (in the most comfortable chair) and let him talk about every single little detail on and offscreen in all John Wick films.

Chad is such an intuitive creator. We need more directors like him! I want to write and direct the same style of stuff. Action IS storytelling!

I watched this after JW3 just came out on the opening weekend with stunning reviews and phenomenon box office success. Man oh man, Chad gets my utmost respect.

Great interview. Seen Chad Stahelski way before, huge fan. I would like to see great famous filmmakers, behind the scenes, with new interview. David Leitch, is on my list, I would like to hear the back story about them entering the film industry.

Damn, I can watch all the interview with Chad Stahelski! He is awesome!!

[DeathBringer]

With the John Wick movies Chad has become one of my favorite directors of all time. And of course I was and still am a fan of the Matrix movies he helped work on as Keanu's stuntman as well ;)

Very informative!!
Kudos to chad for sharing his priceless experience..

[yokiryuchan]

He's a legit Kickboxer. I saw a video of him sparring. He's good. I always think "oh these hollywood action guys probably can't fight for real" Trust me he can fight for real.

[greengrass]

Chad is a awesome director and stuntman. 😇🌞🤗😍😊👏👌🖒👊💖

[sdprz]

He said his wife is currently working on Avengers 3, when was this recorded?

[bernienikora]

Chad, you are a gift that just keeps giving. Love you. Cheers from New Zealand❤❤

[assembled]

Chad should direct Bad Boys 4 and Beverly Hills Cop 4 to make those films more action packed.

[DoooBeeDoooBeeDooo]

Why this man hasn't been on the recent director-roundtables is plain redicluous.
The already well established ones could learn a thing or two.
