John Wick’s The Continental Hotel Explained: History, Managers & More

The Continental series is a prequel to the John Wick films and centers on the hotel of the same name, begging the question of why the establishment is so important to the franchise. The Continental officially began development in 2017 when John Wick writer Derek Kolstad and four-time franchise director Chad Stahelski began deliberating on ways to expand the lore of the franchise. Eventually, the duo settled on producing a TV miniseries centered on the foundations of the criminal underworld teased in all four John Wick movies.
