Commons has revealed a few more details about John Wick: Chapter 2 during his interview with Chris Cabin for Collider. He said the following with respect to the film:
“The sequel is taking the world of John Wick – and I love the world of John Wick – and elevating it and taking it higher, but you’ve got the essence of what John Wick is. It’s not the same story repeated. It’s heightened in the environment, the action and the struggle for John Wick. The action and the fighting is just growing and getting better. It’s next level.”
“My character is less a villain than he is a rival to John Wick. They’re cut from the same cloth. They’re the same type of warriors. But it’s time for battle, at a certain point. It’s a lot of fun to get to be in this movie. We shot in some great places. I just love that world and I’m excited to see what comes from it.”
Common said the following about Keanu:
“[Reeves] is the top of the line, when it comes to my experiences working with actors. He’s committed on a high level, especially on the action side. He has it from all of those dimensions.
