“Because [Reddick] is no longer with us, another one I’m going to miss terribly,” McShane said, per Entertainment Weekly, speaking of his on-screen criminal spouse at the John Wick 10th anniversary screening in Los Angeles. “But we have Ballerina coming out, where [we’ll see him] for the last time, we have that together. I thought we made a great duo in a way. It was great, his relationship is different than mine with Keanu’s character. My moments with him, I think, I’ll remember [the most].”
John Wick franchise star Keanu Reeves talks about how the demanding stunts he did for the action film pushed him to his physical limits.
