Each John Wick film has earned more money and recognition than its
predecessor, defying the conventional wisdom about the box office's
action movie landscape, normally dominated by superhero movies and
science fiction epics. As The Worlds of John Wick explores, the
worldbuilding of John Wick offers thrills that you simply can't
find anywhere else. The franchise's plot combines familiar elements
of the revenge thriller and crime film with seamlessly coordinated
action. One of its most distinctive appeals, however, is the
detailed and multifaceted fictional world-or rather, worlds-it
constructs. The contributors to this volume consider everything
from fight sequences, action aesthetics, and stunts to grief,
cinematic space and time, and gender performance to map these
worlds and explore how their range and depth make John Wick a hit.
A deep dive into this popular neo-noir franchise, The Worlds of
John Wick celebrates and complicates the cult phenomenon that is
John Wick.
