John Wick Chapter 4 kill count revealed – and it’s huge

Keanu Reeves in John Wick: Chapter 4Lionsgate

John Wick: Chapter 4 boasts the highest kill count of the whole franchise, with Keanu Reeves nearly doubling the first movie’s body bags.

Chapter 4 is 2023’s biggest, best cirque du violence. Reeves’ hitman, alongside Donnie Yen and Rina Sawayama, kills a lot of people in varying ways, including but not limited to: gunshots to the face, bodies being slashed and stabbed with swords, and heads being battered with nunchucks.

The first entry was a far simpler affair, following a man dragged into the life of an assassin to avenge his dog while ripping through New York’s underbelly. Even back then, his vengeance carried a huge toll. As the stories expand and the High Table’s sprawling presence continues to emerge, John Wick will never run out of bad guys to kill.
