"This milestone is a testament to the incredible work of Chad Stahelski and Keanu Reeves, alongside Basil Iwanyk and Erica Lee, who have made it their mission to outdo themselves with each successive film in this franchise. We could not be more grateful to global moviegoers for bringing us this incredible achievement," Lionsgate Motion Picture Group chair Joe Drake said in a statement.

The John Wick films follow the titular John Wick (Reeves), a legendary hitman who is forced out of retirement in the first movie. Donnie Yen, Bill Skarsgard, Laurence Fishburne and Ian McShane also star.

Drake told The Hollywood Reporter in March that John Wick 5 is a possibility.

Lionsgate is also developing the spinoff film Ballerina starring Ana de Armas. In addition, the prequel spinoff series The Continental: From the World of John Wick will premiere on Peacock in September.
