In a franchise that wouldn't exist without Hong Kong action cinema, it only makes sense for this icon to help end John Wick's story.
The Big Picture Editor's Note: The following contains spoilers for John Wick Chapter 4.The John Wick cast has always been replete with spectacular character actors, but the pairing of John Wick: Chapter 4 and Donnie Yen is serendipitous. A martial arts legend in an American franchise built upon its reverence for Asian filmography, and he's Chapter 4's top-billed actor after Keanu Reeves? Yes, please.
His worst fears prove well-founded when the High Table member Marquis Vincent de Gramont promises to murder Caine's daughter in cold blood if Caine refuses, or even fails, to kill Wick. Initially, Caine thought the Marquis made him an offer and easily denies the contract on Wick's life, but there was no true choice in the matter and never was. If Wick was driven by revenge in the first John Wick, then Caine's propelled by the ferocity of protection.
This just makes sense, because watching the 59-year-old Yen in his element is a combination of joy and admiration. Caine tosses off quips as smooth as his sword blade and stars in spry action sequences that are too cleverly executed by half. The doorbell sound alarms are John Wick at its most fun, and unlike Yen's turn as another blind warrior in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, Caine doesn't have the Force to guide his actions.
