John Wick: Chapter 2 Clip: The Hitman's Tailor
01/26/2017 04:53 pm EST
John Wick: Chapter 2 continues the saga of the titular legendary hitman played by Keanu Reeves, after he slaughtered the Russian mob for killing his pet dog in the first film.
Chapter 2 sees the target on John's back, as he gets greenlit for termination by any would-be assassin in the area (like those played by Common and Ruby Rose). Director Chad Stahelski will deliver some sick action (as we've seen in some wonderfully operatic trailers), but fans of John Wick know that the movie's appeal goes beyond action.
The world and mythos of John Wick was as engrossing as the action in the film, plunging fans into a fully formed world of hitmen, gangsters and assassins, which exists just beneath the everyday world of New York City. What's great about the latest John Wick: Chapter 2 clip above is that it takes a break from action and bullets to give fans insight into another great world-building moment.
Apparently the tailors in John's (under)world don't just make snazzy suits - they make snazzy suits with advanced body armor woven into it. Given how many kicks, punches, blades and bullets, John Wick took in the first film (and is expected to take in the sequel), his fashion is probably on point.
