Hi all! FFI is in touch and in this issue we will talk about the now cult film franchise "John Wick". However, we will not tritely analyze and describe the plot of all the released and unreleased parts, tell how many hours a day Keanu Reeves trained in order to convincingly send to the next world the endless enemies running out from behind the scenes, or talk about how his film career was revived, thanks to the role of the elusive and unkillable killer Baba Yaga, we won’t talk about how the films themselves have returned interest in the genre - the Internet is already replete with such content.

This time we will look at the franchise through the prism of the fighting cast. Yes exactly! Over the four parts of the main series, the films featured not only top stuntmen, but also actors whose influence on modern hand-to-hand fighting games can hardly be overestimated. Because the director of the Wick films is a martial artist and former stuntman Chad Stahelski, and his stunt team was in charge of the action 87Eleven, then Reeves’ rivals in the frame are entirely professionals who are worth talking about.

Therefore, we present to you the TOP 10 on-screen fighters and martial artists who played in the films of the series, and we will leave Keanu himself aside - he already receives a lot of attention.
