'Get up, Keanu!' An unannounced premiere of 'John Wick: Chapter 4' with Reeves and director Chad Stahelski sent the SXSW audience into a frenzy Monday.
A plaintive cry came from the audience more than once at Monday’s surprise North American premiere of “John Wick: Chapter 4” at the. The marquee outside Austin’s Paramount Theatre may have read “Baba Yaga” before the screening, but the packed, frenzied audience all knew what they were there to see.
Asked about his favorite scene in the movie, Reeves chose a quiet character moment near the end, where Wick remembers his dead wife. Stahleski added, “For me it was the first day Keanu came on set. He had the suit back on and it was the first time we were back together in three years. So it was pretty special.”Another question about a particular effect in a spectacular sequence shot that maps the overhead geography of a house asked simply, “How is it not lethal?”Reeves added, “And months and months of planning. And training.”One question had to do with the impulse behind the ending — never fear, no spoilers here.
Many of the questions from the audience simply acknowledged Reeves’ longevity as a star and the deep connection he has with his fans.
