Following the confirmation of Lance Reddick and Ian McShane’s return to the John Wick universe, the ensemble cast of the upcoming fourth installment just keeps on getting bigger, with the addition of Clancy Brown. According to Deadline, The Shawshank Redemption star has recently finalized negotiations to star opposite Keanu Reeves in John Wick: Chapter 4. Production is currently underway in France, Germany, and Japan.

“I have been a fan of Clancy Brown’s since I can remember,” director Chad Stahelski said in a statement. “To have him be a part of this project is an honor. He will make a perfect addition to the World of John Wick!”

Brown’s notable film credits include Highlander, Blue Steel, The Shawshank Redemption, Dead Man Walking, Starship Troopers, The Hurricane, The Guardian, Cowboys & Alien, Hail, Caesar!, and Promising Young Woman.

John Wick: Chapter 4 was first announced two years ago immediately after the record-setting opening weekend of John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum, which went on to gross over $300 million worldwide. The fourth installment will feature the return of Keanu Reeves as the eponymous assassin, who was last seen suffering from multiple injuries after his falling from the top of the Continental Hotel.

Joining Reeves, McShane and Reddick are franchise newcomers Japanese-British pop superstar Rina Sawayama in her film acting debut, Shamier Anderson, Bill Skarsgard, Hiroyuki Sanada, and Donnie Yen, who is reportedly playing an old friend of John Wick.
