It will be on the Starz network. Chad Stahelski will be helming the pilot episode, with Keanu Reeves serving as an executive producer and will also be appearing in the show.

As exciting as it is, I fear that the magic from the movies may get lost as they go on with the series expansion. Only time will tell.

Well, seeing as both films were critical and commercial successes, it was just a matter of time. Starz has had some great series on it. I have seen Outlander, which I thought was quite good. I have only heard positive buzz on American Gods, so I think there are good odds this will have quality. I certainly hope so.

At least with it being on Starz, Ian McShane’s American Gods schedule could be planned to work this into his schedule too. If it’s about the hotel, he’d need to be in it from time to time. I’d expect Lance Reddick to be a regular at least, if not one of the leads.

So it'll be like the Limitless series where the baba yaga appears in some episodes? Hope they shoot in NY, that would be some nice consistent work as we wait for John Wick 3 the Marvel stuff is getting boring

Do you work in the film industry?

Starz is responsible for Black Sails, American Gods and Spartacus, so I'll be giving them the benefit of the doubt. They've upped their game these last few years.

John Wick world done Spartacus style. ...interesting

If they did an Animatrix type situation, where you say have a 'series' of 10 Episodes, each of which is either self contained or loosely linked, and tell different stories, that explore the world that would be pretty cool I think.

I don't know if he was ever going to be in this, but I think lance reddick would have been great once again, a shame he is no longer with us

His character is in it but, like like Winston, is played by a younger actor due to the time period.

I like what little was shown. I am very interested. I will get Peacock just for viewing of this.

The Donna Summer song was the best part of the trailer.
