John Wick: Chapter 4’s Bonus Features Explained
John Wick: Chapter 4 takes everything that worked well about the previous entries and pushes it to the next level, and the bonus features included in the digital and physical releases will explore how this was accomplished. The “Train Like A Killer” feature will highlight Reeves’ intense training process for the film, including everything from gun handling to jiu jitsu to stunts. John Wick: Chapter 4‘s stunning set design also gets its own feature called “Making A Killing,” which will explore how set design and action go hand in hand.
Another feature, “The Psychology of a Killer,” will serve as a deep dive into Wick himself, an assassin who remains something of a mystery even after four movies. The introduction of Donnie Yen’s Caine, a blind assassin, was a major John Wick: Chapter 4 highlight, and “The Blind Leading The Fight” feature will explore the legendary martial artist’s preparation and execution of the role. The John Wick franchise is also well-known for its slick costuming, and the “Suit Up/ Shoot Up” feature will feature costume designer Paco Delgado walking audiences through the movie’s wardrobe choices.
Other features in the digital release include explorations of the movie’s special effects and John Wick: Chapter 4‘s Arc de Triomphe sequence. The “One Killer Shot” feature will serve as a deep dive into how the film’s one take Dragon’s Breath shotgun scene was made. The final two John Wick: Chapter 4 features include an exploration of the movie’s intense night shooting schedule and the films Stahelski used as reference when devising his hit sequel.
