John Wick: Chapter 2 Pitch Meeting

Step inside the pitch meeting that led to John Wick: Chapter 2!

The first John Wick film starring Keanu Reeves was a surprise hit in 2014. Wick’s no-nonsense “gun-fu” fighting style mixed with the mysterious world-building and the satisfaction of seeing someone get revenge for a puppy really struck a chord with audiences, making John Wick Keanu Reeves’ most popular movie since The Matrix trilogy. Naturally, they had to make some sequels. They had no choice in the matter.

John Wick: Chapter 2 definitely raises some questions though. Like why did John think leaving the life in exchange for something that could bring him back at any time was a good move? Why did Santino want to hire the boogeyman, when the job consisted of walking through a secret tunnel? And why hire him of all people if he knew he was going to double-cross him? Is anybody in this world NOT an assassin? What was with that whole seven bullets scene? Does the dog think they’re just going for a run?

To answer all these questions and more, step inside the Pitch Meeting that led to John Wick: Chapter 2! It’ll be super easy, barely an inconvenience.

"Why would they blow up the dogs house" is a line that almost killed me this week.

[raydunakin]

"Is anyone NOT an assassin?"
"John Wick's dog -- he's not an assassin."
"Oh, what a good boy!"
"For now..."
That made me laugh so hard I had to pause the video!

[jotheunissen]

"Is anybody NOT an assassin?"
"Uuuuh... John Wicks dog, he's not an assassin... for now"
I now need a movie about the dog being an assassin

[piplup]

I love these. "Well he's very good at hitting his target so he knows what he's doing." and then the reply with, "Oh no he misses." Had me laughing so much xD the silencer part of the movie is just absolutely ridiculous lol

"Winston's like yeah that's a marker you gotta do whatever this guy says"
"And John doesn't already know this?"
"He does yeah, but the audience doesn't"
"Oh very thoughtful of him!"

[BirbalBonifaceMusoba]

"There's Tilda Swinton on the turntable" that just made my night

[francesco]

I never thought about the dog having a good time at the end.
This information has improved the ending significantly.

[The-Rest-of-Us]

A universe where everyone’s an assassin is like the Ryanverse but with assassins.

[jeffreytackett]

"Of course. I've seen movies."

This is an astoundingly deep and descriptive phrase, which managed to relay a tremendous amount of information with just 5 words. Bravo.

[thebiowatchlist]

"How would she have..."
"There was no way."

These pitch meetings are genius.

[neonswitchblade]

After 260+ episodes, it still boggles my mind when I see a new Pitch Meeting of a recent, popular movie. I'm like, "Wait, that movie hasn't been done yet!?"

[kstepko]

“In the first movie they killed his dog and in this one, they blow up his house.”
“Why would they blow up the dog’s house?”
🤣 I laughed way too hard at this.💀

[diondwamena]

When he said Tilda Swinton on the turntables, they looked so alike I actually checked the cast list of John Wick: Chapter 2 to see if she was actually in the movie. You may not have meant to but you got me good Ryan... you got me good.

[darcyrix-hayes]

I appreciate you harping on the flash mob moment and that basically everyone is an assassin. It's a cool universe but sometimes too silly!

[TheRealGuywithoutaMustache]

"John Wick's dog, he's not an assassin"
"For now"

Who knows, it's more possible, than not in this universe.

[glassbakeware]

"They're called silencers so it makes the guns entirely silent"
"I don't think that's how suppressors work"
"I'm going to need you to get all the way off my back about this"

[AlejandroLZuvic]

"They could swing an election"
"Like with a strategic political assassination?"
"No, just sheer numbers"

I'm dying LOL

[queendsheena]

"This guy is great for the funeral industry." Love this show.

[DominickRuocco]

I can't get enough of these Pitch Meeting's. Waiting for the "Super easy. Barely an inconvenience." is always my favorite part.
