Common Talks John Wick: Chapter 2 Role

Actor Common is going to have a role in the upcoming action sequel John Wick: Chapter 2.  He has talked about how the sequel will compare with the original film, which is where is comments begin:

“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.”

But what of the character he will be playing?

“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.”

John Wick: Chapter 2 is headed our way February 2017… less than a year!
