This Thrilling, Genre-Bending Action Film Inspired John Wick’s Most Iconic Chase Scene — And You Need To Check It Out

In John Wick Chapter 3: Parabellum, Wick meets with The Director in the theater that serves as a front for the Ruska Roma operations for the High Table in New York City. As they move deeper into the theater, we see young adults training in both martial arts and ballet, and the Director asks with a wink, “Fond memories?” If you’re itching for more, Ana de Armas is sure to give it to you in the upcoming Ballerina, but there’s a Korean action film that inspired these particular origins for John Wick, as well as Parabellum’s incredible motorcycle sequence.
