The
52-year-old
iconic
Hollywood
actor
Keanu
Reeves,
who
features
as
a
hitman
in
the
much
popular
movie
titled
John
Wick
and
the
latest
released
John
Wick:
Chapter
2,
said
that
he
liked
his
character
to
suffer
in
the
hands
of
chance
and
fate.
"We
wanted
to
come
to
a
place
that
John
literally
had
to
fight
for
his
life,
and
that
he's
starting
to
become
a
little
anti-establishment.
And
that's
really
where
the
character
starts
to
develop." Said
the
actor.
"It's
like
the
rules
and
world
that
he
lived
by,
aren't
starting
to
work
for
him,
and
they're
not
working"
Reeves
added.
He
continued,
"There
are
people
who
are
out
to
get
him
because
of
his
transgressions.
And
we
liked
that
idea
because
we
like
John
-
when
I
say
'we' I
mean
the
producers,
the
writer,
the
director
-
we
like
to
see
him
suffer!"
Reeves
also
shared
that
the
director
of
the
film
Chad
Stahelski
along
with
the
writer
Derek
Kolstad,
wanted
to
cast
the
end
of
the
movie
in
a
way
which
makes
the
character
of
John
Wick
more
vulnerable.
"We
wanted
to
put
him
in
another
vulnerable...
'How's
he
going
to
get
out?!
How's
he
going
to
survive?!
What's
it
mean?!
What's
he
going
to
do?!'
I
don't
know!
We
have
some
ideas.
Maybe
he
needs
to
go
to
Jerusalem!
Or
he's
in
the
middle
of
the
desert.
Or
whatever!" Said
Reeves.
