At the same time, producer Basil Iwanyk was developing films for Warner Bros. Pictures through his studio Thunder Road Films. Iwanyk was frustrated at not being involved beyond sourcing scripts; he wanted the autonomy to develop independent films so he could be more involved in the process. [41] He focused on action films that could be made on relatively low budgets. [42] Iwanyk read Kolstad's spec script, appreciating its subversive tone and emotional throughline, as well as the relatability and accessibility of a man seeking revenge after losing his wife, his dog, and his car; and his home being violated. [33] [42] Several studios were interested in the spec script and could offer Kolstad more money than Iwanyk. [42] Anderson, Erik (June 30, 2023).

John demands to be directed to the Elder, the only person above the High Table.

When Sofia refuses to give Berrada one of her trained Belgian Malinois, he shoots the dog but hits its bulletproof vest. John prevents Sofia from killing Berrada.

[b] The Elder agrees to forgive John under of the condition of killing Winston and subservience to the High Table for the remainder of his life. To show his fealty, John severs his ring finger and gives his wedding ring to The Elder. Cinematographer Jonathan Sela intended to use anamorphic lenses for John's domestic life to create a soft, clean image; and spherical lenses for his return to the underworld to create a grittier, darker, and sharper picture. Once filming began, however, he opted to use the lenses for, respectively, day-and-night filming, and contrast the use of a static camera position for the early segments and dynamic movements for the remainder of the film. [100] He lit scenes in a gothic manner to make the underworld appear with a mix of American and European designs, and lit characters to maintain the mystery of whether they were John's friend or foe.

In April 2013, Iwanyk's friend was serving as Keanu Reeves's talent agent. Iwanyk shared the script after the agent expressed Reeves's interest in pursuing a new action project. [44] Reeves was interested in the dynamics between the real world and the underworld, and the emotional connection to John's wife. [45] [46] [47] The script was sent to multiple directors, many of whom suggested expanding John's family and having them killed to drive the plot, but Kolstad opposed this idea. [44] Others were uninterested because the idea appeared to be a typical Reeves action film. [48] Domestic 2014 Weekend 45 November 7–9, 2014". Box Office Mojo.
