John Wick: Chapter 4 will be nearly three hours long

All told, John Wick: Chapter 4 should be more than half an hour longer than the previous installment when it premieres on March 24.

Longer doesn't always mean better but given the ever-expanding cast of each subsequent John Wick sequel, it only makes sense for Stahelski to push the limits of how long audiences can hold out.

For what it's worth, Avengers: Endgame, which ran for 182 minutes, made use of every second to up the ante and set the stage for what's arguably one of the most bad-ass brawls in cinematic history (the only one that might be better is The Siege of Minas Tirith from 2003's The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King).

Now, we're not saying John Wick: Chapter 4 will feature a massive battle, but its cast more than deserves their moment to shine. Keep in mind that its roster will welcome several new faces like Bill Skarsgård's The Marquis de Gramont, Donnie Yen as Caine, and Hiroyuki Sanada as Shimazu, among many others.

The John Wick franchise's biggest strength has always been Stahelski's masterful ability to show rather than tell. With close to three hours of airtime for John Wick: Chapter 4, the movie will have plenty of opportunities to tell its story when it comes out on March 24.

In the meantime, audiences can look forward to IGN's Fan Fest on February 17 for more John Wick: Chapter 4 footage to cap off Lionsgate's "Wick Week". The week-long festivity has already started with a new poster for John Wick: Chapter 4.
