Keanu Reeves gave the โJohn Wick 4โ stunt crew personalised โdeath countโ T-shirts and engraved Rolex watches.
The Hollywood action man reprised his role as the feared assassin for the fourth installment in the hit franchise and he made sure all of the stunt workers on the movie felt appreciated by giving them shirts emblazoned with the number of times they acted out a death scene โ as well as pricey timepieces said to be worth ยฃ7,300 each.
The filmโs fight coordinator Jeremy Marina told the New York Times: โAt the end of the shoot Reeves made T-shirts for the stunt performers emblazoned with the number of times they were slain over the course of the entire movie.โ
The stunt performers are said to have โdiedโ onscreen up to 20 times during the course of the film.
Keanu is also said to have presented four of the stunt workers with pricey Rolex Submariner watches each engraved with the words โThe John Wick Fiveโ along with the crew memberโs name and the message: โThank you โฆ Keanu โฆ JW4 2021.โ
The actor is also believed to have purchased one of the watches for himself.
A member of the team posted pictures of the gifts on Instagram as well as the moment Keanu presented them with the watches, calling it the โbest wrap gift everโ.
Itโs not yet known whether Keanu will return for a fifth movie, but head of the Lionsgate movie studio Joe Drake recently hinted John Wick could be back again, telling Deadline.com: โWeโre not ready to say goodbye to Keanu with this franchise. Itโs what alternative there will be โฆ Thereโs a lot of different things that we can do.โ
