New John Wick Funko Pops Available for Keanu Reeves Fans

by

Despite some uncertainty about another installment in the original John Wick series, fans can still look forward to seeing Keanu Reeves reprising his role as the iconic assassin in the near future. The spin-off movie titled Ballerina, co-starring Keanu Reeves and Ana de Armas who plays an assassin-in-training, is set for release next summer. In celebration of this upcoming project, Funko has recently unveiled a fresh new John Wick Pop figurine.

Previously, Funko Pop figures of Keanu Reeves’ John Wick character from the “John Wick” series have been made; these began with the 2017 release in “John Wick: Chapter 2”. This new figure, however, boasts a few distinctive design elements. The miniature John Wick appears as if he’s emerged from the heat of battle, with a stained shirt, a roughened face, and two blades prepared for action. Despite appearing battered in battle, Reeves is renowned for consistently outsmarting his adversaries.

Despite many fans considering John Wick: Chapter 4 to be a satisfying conclusion to the series, it appears that the franchise continues to thrive. Keanu Reeves may yet reappear in various forms, even if it’s only as a Funko Pop figure. Interestingly, the upcoming movie Ballerina is set between the third and fourth installments of the John Wick films, implying that our beloved assassin still has some miles left on his road. While Ballerina primarily revolves around Ana de Armas’ revenge story in No Time To Die, John Wick will be featured as a supporting character in this spin-off, alongside Ian McShane and the late Lance Reddick.

The ‘John Wick’ Franchise May Be Over — But the Spinoffs Have Just Begun

There’s some uncertainty about whether a fifth John Wick film will be produced, even Keanu Reeves himself isn’t certain. Although he’s open to reprising his role, he’s expressed concerns about his body handling the rigorous physical requirements of portraying the world’s most feared assassin. Given that Reeves is 60 years old and has been playing action heroes since the 90s, it’s reasonable to assume that such intense training would eventually take its toll on him.

Despite the upcoming launch of “Ballerina” and Keanu Reeves’ persistent popularity in the Funko Pop realm, these developments are strong signs of his enduring career. Regardless of whether he plays a supporting role or the lead character, it’s evident that fans will keep appreciating him, and his influence on the action genre will persist for quite some time.

Currently, all four John Wick movies are available to stream on Hulu, giving fans a chance to rewatch before Ballerina releases in theaters on June 7th. Additionally, you can pre-order the latest John Wick Funko Pop figure for $11.99, with its official release date scheduled for March.
