5 Reasons You Should Watch ‘John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum’ Including Hot Halle Berry’s Character
We’re just days out from the highly-anticipated release of John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum and Nexter.org has prepared everything you need to know about it.
What does ‘Parabellum’ mean?

You probably didn’t come to John Wick looking for wordplay, but you’re getting it anyway. There’s a double meaning to this subtitle – not only is Parabellum a type of gun, but it’s also a Latin phrase meaning ‘prepare for war’. Which is all rather apt, considering the predicament Wick finds himself in this time.
Which characters will return in John Wick 3?

You’ve got the aforementioned Continental Hotel owner Winston, played by Ian McShane, Lance Reddick as the Concierge Charon, and Laurence Fishburne is returning as The Bowery King – the pigeon-obsessed crime lord introduced in Chapter Two.

Movie synopsis
According to the movie’s synopsis, the film will have Reeves’ hitman fighting for survival as he attempts to flee New York City. The full synopsis released by the studio reads as follows:
John Wick (Keanu Reeves) is on the run for two reasons … he’s being hunted for a global $14 million dollar open contract on his life, and for breaking a central rule: Taking a life on Continental Hotel grounds.

The victim was a member of the High Table who ordered the open contract. John should have already been executed, except the Continental’s manager, Winston, has given him a one-hour grace period before he’s “excommunicado” – membership revoked, banned from all services, and cut off from other members.
John uses the service industry to stay alive as he fights and kills his way out of New York City.
