Jonathan "John" Wick is a fictional character created by American screenwriter Derek Kolstad and portrayed by Canadian actor Keanu Reeves. He is the titular protagonist of the neo-noir media franchise John Wick.
John is introduced as a legendary hitman who is thrust back into the criminal underworld after Russian-American mobsters assault him, kill his puppy, and steal his car. The attack sets John on a path of revenge, returning him to the violent lifestyle that he had left behind and eventually bringing him into conflict with the international organization of assassins.[1]
