Some of the 2020-2021 releases include the new Chris Rock-produced Saw reboot, Doug Liman’s Choas Walking (stars Tom Holland and Daisy Ridley), Ryan Reynolds’ The Hitman’s Bodyguard’s Wife, and Keanu Reeve’s John Wick: Chapter 4/Rally Car. There also is an expectation that Sly Stallone’s The Expendables 4 and Chris Evans’ Jeykell will eventually be released by 2021.
